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.

This is a fantastic tour. It is in a large passenger van that travels over plowed roads. The road from the "North Entrance" (near Mammoth) is plowed year round to Cooke City which is straight to the east at the "Northeast Entrance".
