Hidden Yellowstone & Grand Teton

• Safari in search of wolves, grizzlies, elk and bison in Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley
• Experience wildlife-viewing spots missed by the casual tourist with your expert guides
• Float the Snake River through Jackson Hole, beneath the Tetons’ spires

When President Theodore Roosevelt visited Yellowstone in 1903, he proclaimed it “absolutely unique in the world.” Embracing the idea of natural beauty as a national asset, he championed the idea of national parks, building a priceless legacy for generations to follow. In the northwest corner of Wyoming, two treasured parks offer an immersion in scenery and wildlife unparalleled in the Lower 48. This classic small-group safari right at home takes us into the domain of elk and buffalo herds, moose, coyotes, foxes, bald eagles and, of course, bears and wolves. From plains to peaks, Yellowstone Country still works strong magic.

Important Information about This Trip

We call this trip “Hidden Yellowstone & Tetons” because our Expedition Leaders, who know this area intimately, are adept at getting our groups to less-visited areas away from the crowds and because we tend to run the trips when the parks are less crowded. But, of course, Yellowstone is a very popular destination, so be prepared for at least a fair amount of company. We operate this trip similarly to how we operate our African safaris: We visit wildlife locations in the early mornings, when viewing is at its best and most tourists are still asleep.

Getting There & Getting Home
Arrive in Jackson, Wyoming in time for a 6:00 p.m. orientation dinner and depart anytime on the final day after we spend our final evening together in Jackson.
