Great overview trip! - We had a charming guide, Michael, who was lots of fun and very knowledgeable. Lots of wildlife and all the promised stops plus a bonus! We had 2 more days in the Park and Michael gave us some terrific ideas for backcountry hikes.

Lower Loop Van Tour - Loved our Lower loop day tour with Josh. Knowledgeable, engaging and always with a smile, he made the day fun and interesting. Was also very flexible when Old Faithful erupted 45 minutes earlier than scheduled (unheard of!!!😆) and rolled with it. Stopped for photos of wildlife!! Thoroughly enjoyed our tour.

Good visit to Park highlights - Excellent way to take a tour of the highlights of the Park. Our Guide Mike very friendly, with knowledge of the place. We had a sunny day, we could take nice pictures. Comfortable Van that moved us and provided us with good snacks, coffee and a rich lunch sandwich. Very happy with the experience.

Great Overview of the Lower Loop - Austin was a good, very patient, and pleasant guide. This tour is a great overview for newbies. Got lots of great pics 🙌🏼 Lunch was a basic but tasty turkey sandwich plus a goodie bag of snacks for the day. Glad we did it. Was nice to not have to figure out all the stops. Being a passenger with the freedom to just relax and enjoy is always nice 😊 Would’ve liked more ‘Class A’ (I..e. flushing😂) toilets but that is part of the wilderness experience, isn’t it? Saw plenty of bison, elk, and birds. Overall, a beautiful day 🤩

Good escort - Austin was calm without rushing through the program. He spoke an adequate amount of words and allowed patrons to sit back and enjoy the stops.

Lower Loop Tour - We enjoyed the tour and the guide was great and very helpful. I would have to recommend having a headset with a speaker for the guide, however. We both are hard of hearing and had to sit in the furthest seat back so we missed a bit of detail, even with hearing aids.
