The Trip of a Lifetime - Andrea was fantastic. He went above and beyond making sure we saw the very best Yellowstone has to offer. We managed to witness the varieties of wildlife along with the jaw-dropping scenery. No question went unanswered, and we truly got to witness more than we would have journeying on our own behalf. 11 out of 10 recommend Andrea as a guide, and will surely be returning in the near future!

Best Day EVER in Yellowstone! - Our family watched the wolf packs with Andrea on March 1, 2025 in Yellowstone. We had such a wonderful day and although we’ve lived in Bozeman since 2012 we have never seen Yellowstone or the wolves like this before! I highly recommend this tour to anyone that loves nature and animals. Andrea does such a fabulous job and he’s so kind and fun! Our three teenagers had the best day exploring and wolf watching with Andrea. We also really enjoyed the short hikes and the lunch was delicious!!

Fantastic tour! - This is the second time we’ve used Yellowstone Adventure Tours, once in the summer and this time a winter tour. I’ve been beyond impressed both times The guides are extremely knowledgeable and know just where to go. (Even though wildlife is unpredictable) For our winter tour, Andrea was our guide. He has a great personality and is fun to be around. Which makes a world of difference! His knowledge and expertise was impressive and my teenager enjoyed soaking everything in. The lunch was very good, so much better than just a basic sandwich. They also supply you with everything you could need for the day. They really are top notch.

Best Yellowstone Private Guide - I’ve been on guided tours in Yellowstone with several different companies now, and this one is by far the best. They go above and beyond to get you to the best locations & spots to view wildlife. I have been on 2 guided tours now with Andrea Baratte experiencing / photographing various wildlife & wolves. He’s extremely courteous & professional! Very knowledgeable, friendly and a fantastic overall guide. If you’re interested in having a truly wonderful Yellowstone wildlife experience in the park, definitely book a tour with these folks!

Incredible Late Fall Tour of Yellowstone - Andrea was an incredible guide! He is so knowledgeable about the entire region. We visited in November and would have never seen so much without his assistance. Immediately when we drove into the gate he spotted coyotes. From there we saw antelope, deer, elk, bison and rams. Even a very complacent moose. The best part was when he took us to an isolated overlook for my fiancé to propose. He fed us a delicious lunch. Then the finale was when we found the Mollie’s wolf pack trying to take down one of the bison. We will definitely be back in another season to see all the creatures that were sleeping this time!

Daddy’s Safari Birthday - We booked the Yellowstone Winter Wolf Watching and Wildlife Safari tour package for my father's 80th birthday. He flew in from Wichita, KS and we flew in from Sacramento, CA.  Andrea reached out to me prior to our trip to make sure that our lunches were in alignment with our dietary restrictions and preferences and to make sure that we would make the best use of our time based on what was happening within the park. The morningof the tour he arrived early at our Airbnb taking slippery snowy roads to get to us.  He was kind and fit right in with our family which made the trip very comfortable, easy and a truly pleasant experience. You could tell that he was passionate about the park, the animals and his work, and that he is a thoughtful, courteous and professional tour guide/business owner.  Throughout the tour he made sure to explain everything that we saw along the way and answer any questions we had.  He took us to parts of the park that we would never have experienced on our own and when we encountered other guides and tours during the day, you could tell he was someone that his peers also admired and thought highly of.    During our trip we saw Elk, Wolves, Bison, Moose, Pronghorns, Bald Eagles, an American Dipper, Mountain Goats and a Cougar.   The 5 of us would definitely recommend YWWWWS to anyone who is looking for a magical experience!
