the photo safari tour was the highlight of my tour! our guide was Wim, and he was AMAZING! I highly recommend taking the tour for any level of photographer. Even with a camera phone it is worth taking it. Although I took my new digital slr camera, and he explained so much!

When I booked this trip I was concerned about getting our three teenagers out of bed for this early morning experience but so glad we did! Our guide, Brandon picked us up at the Canyon Lodge in the Yellow bus "Hollywood". As we made our way towards the Lamar Valley, we stopped to observe a wolf pack on a bluff... More

No value added here. You drive around in a bus and the driver points out wildlife. The downside is that you need to make several stops to pick up other people for the tour. Save your money and time and drive through the valley yourself. If you can tell the differance between a bison and a great blue herring you... More

The Photo Safari is a great way to explore the park. Expert photo equipment and expertise are not required. I use a point and shoot and ended up with beautiful photos of animals and the park. Our guide was Doug Hilborn and he was outstanding in assisting everyone with their cameras. I had a lovely morning and ended up with... More

We took the Photo Safari Tour from Old Faithful Inn and had a GREAT experience! You are guided by a professional photographer. We only had point and shoot and iphone cameras. Some of the others on the tour had good cameras, multiple lenses and tripods. Our guide was Barrrett Hedges, Grand Champion Winner of the National Geographic 2010 Wildlife Photo... More

The historic yellow bus was wonderful, our guide was pleasant and professional, and we saw 12 species of wildlife including grizzy bear, black bear, bison, pronghorn, bison, and wolves. And of course wonderful scenery. This tour departs from a number of Yellowstone hotels, and it was a great experience.

My wife and I stayed at Roosevelt Lodge as part of our time in Yellowstone, in part so that we could have easy access to the Lamar Valley. We expected to explore the area on our own, but at the last moment decided to add the Wake up to Wildlife Tour on a historic Yellow Bus. We had taken a... More

We took the tour from Mammoth. We were taken in a refurbished "old bus" which is an interesting experience of itself. The driver/guide was knowlegeable and enthusiastic. The route took us out into the Lamar valley where we saw lots of bison, a couple of bears, elk, pronghorn deer, a fleeting glimpse of a wolf and some smaller mammals. However,... More

We took the wake up to wildlife tour from Canyon Village it was well worth waking up early for! We had a very fun and interesting tour guide who did not disappoint! We saw a wolf and two black bears, plus loads of bison! the yellow bus was so much fun and we learned so many interesting things we would... More
