Dale is so knowledgeable and courteous and by the end of the day he seems like family! With a great breakfast and lunch provided and many stops along the way, the day just flew by. I would definitely recommend this tour with this company, Experience Yellow Stone Tours with Dale Franz!

Spectacular!! Amazing!! Superb!! - Spectacular!!! Amazing!! Superb!! If you want to see Yellowstone, Dale is the perfect guide. We spent two days with Dale and we saw way more than I had imagined possible! Dale is a world class wildlife photographer who has been guiding tours here for 30 years. He took us places we would have never seen otherwise. We saw several geysers erupt, waterfalls and tons of wildlife. He made this trip perfect for us!

Pros/cons , good but not great for the cost, advise to check inside the park tours - It's taken a while to write this, as I really had to work on what I thought of the tour. It's billed as "wildlife and nature" tour. With that, it met expectations. The guide was knowledgeable of animal habitats and locations, and geological formations. The pros- saw wildlife, knowledgeable guide. Breakfast and lunch were provided. The cons- more expensive than tours inside the park and rates were different by group (happened to ask a fellow passenger), the guide did not convey a "love" of wildlife and a bit dreary of the job. The tour is long....12 hours! Maybe that can't be helped as the drive to Yellowstone is lengthy. He did do pickup at the hotel which was nice. I would say it was a nice tour but not great for the cost!
