A great day of exploring Yellowstone! - Jarrod, our guide, was so knowledgeable and asked us for our preferences for what we wanted to see. We saw incredible geothermal landscapes including, of course, Old Faithful and the Beehive Geyser. We saw the “Grand Canyon” of Yellowstone which was magnificent. We would highly recommend this tour.

11/10 Touring Experience- Couldn't Recommend More! - My family and I had an incredible experience touring West Yellowstone with Jarrod. Jarrod was an amazing tour guide and he did such a great job listening to how we envisioned our Yellowstone experience, and took us to the absolute best hikes, as well as some stops at some less-touristy sightseeing spots. He had an immense amount of knowledge about literally everything related to Yellowstone, and made us feel really comfortable, knowing he was an expert in all things Yellowstone and safety (he also packed the absolute best lunches). Couldn't recommend the experience more. It truly. made our Yellowstone trip, and we will absolutely be using Good Trip Adventures again.

Wonderful day with big trip adventures - Our tour guide was Kelsi and not only was she incredibly knowledgeable about the park, the animals, the eco systems, she was also so great with our kids and making sure they were able to keep up with the full day of activities. We saw sooo many different areas of the park in just one day. Highly recommend, especially for families!

Magic! - Victoria allowed us to spend an unforgettable family day in Yellowstone Park. She transported us comfortably in a very well equipped minibus from the Pension to multiple viewpoints or trails of this huge and sumptuous national park. Always attentive, Victoria was flexible to adapt the visit according to our requests (more or less hiking) and the hormonal surges of our teenagers. Sweet and savoury snacks on the bus saved us many times from bites from our always hungry children. We were lucky enough to have an amazing picnic with excellent fresh, healthy and varied products alongside curious squirrels and birds. Victoria allowed us to see many other wildlife such as elk, birds, bison and even black bears! We strongly advise you!

Worth the money! Wonderful experience! - I was hesitant at first to book the private tour. We are a young couple and did not have our kids with us to slow us down. However, we would have not been able to get through or learn even close to as much without this tour! Kimberly has amazing communication skills! She easily figured out our communication styles, how much or little to add to the conversation, and was an overall joy! 100% recommend this tour and Kimberly!

Fantastic Yellowstone Experience - We had an amazing day in Yellowstone and were looked after and expertly guided by Matt. He shared so much knowledge with us and made for a fascinating day seeing the incredible geysers and hot springs of the southern loop. I can highly recommend the experience and hope you get Matt as you’re guide!
