- Grand Prismatic Spring - The Grand Prismatic is a must-see for any Yellowstone visitor. This is Mother Nature at her finest. The Grand Prismatic has captivated millions of visitors from around the globe. Not only is it one of the most breathtaking sites on Earth, but it also plays a role in significant scientific discoveries. The thermophiles of the Grand Prismatic are not only stunning and colorful but are also used in medical resources worldwide. The beautiful “bacteria” is a must-see on your Yellowstone vacation!
- Firehole Canyon Drive - Explore this picturesque area of Yellowstone, home to the beautiful Firehole Falls. Dip your feet into the Firehole River in this stunning locale while anglers fish for native Cutthroat trout.
- Fountain Paint Pot - The Fountain Paint Pots is definitely one of my personal favorites. This incredible geyser basin features many types of geothermal attractions all in one place.

A great day in Yellowstone! - Our guide was very knowledgeable, and we enjoyed her stories. She was on time and the transportation was very comfortable. She was able to accommodate our wants and made it possible for us to see everything we wanted. The only thing we wished was to stay longer at some of the sites. But we know how big Yellowstone is and trying to get to everything in a timely manner can be very difficult. We had a wonderful time!

Great Highlights Tour - This was a great trip and Sunny was a great guide. She had 20+ years of experience and was able to guide us through the park much quicker than we would have alone. She knew where to go and the right times to be there, which during our trip meant rearranging the schedule so the sights could be seen after the morning fog lifted. We were very happy with the tour and the level of engagement... strongly recommended!

Solo traveler! - I found it impossible to book a tour for just myself. Other companies required me to purchase for 2! Sunny was very knowledgeable and timed everything perfectly. If I had done this on my own, I would not have enjoyed it nearly as much!

Exceeded our expectations - We had an amazing day with Sunny. We were 2 families (7 people) in a comfortable van but lots of short hikes and wildlife viewing. Our day was much longer than expected which we loved (10.5 hours). We brought food and there were plenty of snacks and water provided. We saw everything and then some more. Sunny was super knowledge, fun and easy going and had great advice for what we can do on other days suitable to our taste (adventure and a bit off the beaten path). She showed us swim areas and told us great stories about history, geology and wildlife. This trip was booked very short notice and exceeded our expectations!! Thank you. 5 Stars hands down!

The best guide tour! - We really had a great tour with our guide, Sammy,(sorry if wrong spelling ). She is very organized and thoughtful person. She always thought about the best timings and the best routes to visit the sightseeing spots. When she took us to Old Faithful Geyser, it started to erupt just 5 min after we arrived there. Perfect timing! She stopped the best spots to view animals and natures. Besides, she is very knowledgeable about anything of Yellowstone. We had good time and unforgettable memories.
I definitely recommend this tour.

Best Investment - A must! Shari was not only our guide for the day, but became a friend. She found the best spots to view animals or nature. We never would have seen as much if we had driven on our own. We thoroughly enjoyed our day! (we enjoyed it so much we booked a second day to see the Mustangs)

Excellent Tour - 12 hours well spent! - I’m typically not into structured tours but Yellowstone seemed a bit overwhelming so we decided to go that route. I’m so glad that we did. We had the best day. Our tour guide, Alice, was amazing. She was so friendly and accommodating and she has a ton of interesting knowledge about the park. I learned so much! We got super lucky in that it was rainy and chilly. Why was that lucky? Well the park was way less crowded and Alice was able to get us to all of the best attractions. We got to see bison, elk, mule deer, 2 grizzly bears and 2 cubs, osprey, and big horn sheep. The geysers, waterfalls, and canyons are simply awesome. Basically, don’t be afraid to go on a rainy day. Yellowstone was fantastic and our organized tour really made the trip.
