Classic Yellowstone Wildlife Safari
A Small-Group Guided Exploration of the Wildlife & Beauty of Yellowstone in the Spring and Fall
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.

Group Size Limit
Approximately 14 Travelers
A very important feature of this off-the-beaten-path guided tour is the limited group size, as nature expeditions are best experienced with smaller groups of travelers.
Included
Accommodations, meals from dinner on Day 1 to breakfast on final day, bottled water, services of NHA Expedition Leaders and local guides, most gratuities, airport transfer on Day 1, permits and entrance fees, all taxes.
Not Included
Travel to and from start and end point of trip, alcoholic beverages, some gratuities, passport and visa fees, optional activities, airport transfer on final day, items of a personal nature (phone calls, souvenirs, etc.), airline baggage fees, airport and departure taxes, optional travel insurance.
Physical Requirements
Moderate / Flexible
Travelers should be able to walk distances of at least one mile in order to be able to get off the beaten path and away from the crowds. Hikes are moderate in physical exertion, though a fair amount of wildlife viewing takes place from our specially designed vehicles. All excursions are optional.
Important Information
Our Expedition Leaders, who know this area intimately, are adept at getting our groups to less-visited areas away from the crowds and 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 6pm orientation dinner and depart anytime on the final day after we spend our final evening together in Jackson.
