Great experience
Autumn in Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks is truly amazing! Our guide, Kim, went out of her way to see that each traveler had an exceptional experience. Her knowledge of the area, including its geology, was outstanding, so she was able to provide interesting facts about all of the sights. Our hikes in both parks provided us with wonderful vistas of waterfalls, lakes, etc.,
Worth it!
Excellent tour guide. And very knowledgeable. Accommodations were very comfortable. Many wildlife viewings. Saw incredible geological features and geysers. Trip exceeded my expectations in all areas.
Great experience
The area was beautiful. Accommodations were excellent and the tour guide was superb. She knew the history of the area and people and modified the tour to make it the best possible for our group. Can’t say enough about her. She put our tour over the top.

This was a bucket list trip and it was fulfilled! Dennis is knowledgeable although the old folk in the rear of the bus had trouble hearing him at times! The 10 people were diverse but fit so well, I wondered if it was luck or design! Only one hotel got mixed reviews. Our room was ok but not all rooms were
So much beauty, organized perfectly!
