We did an all day tour in Grand Teton National Park with Kelsie and Jeff. BEST DAY EVER! The day started off with them picking us up at our hotel at 0545 sharp! Beautiful weather. Our day was filled with sightings; moose, elk herd, bison, grizzly mom & cub, lone grizzly, 2 fox, white tail deer, mule deer, grouse, bald eagles, red wing hawks, kestrel and many more small birds which Jeff could identify by their call. The breadth of their combined knowledge is truly amazing. We learned so much about the local wildlife, park ecosystem, geological information about the Grand Tetons and local history. We finished the day with lunch at Dornan’s restaurant at Moose Junction. Lots of good humor and good food. It is my opinion, everyone who visits this area would benefit from one of the tours offered. You’ll be in good hands.

Gail was wonderful guide, extremely knowledgably and ensured the entire group was safe as we embarked on many of the obstacles. The 5 hour day took us to parts of the rain forest where only Hike Mike is allowed to venture which enabled my family to experience a once in a life time adventure. Highly recommend if you enjoy nature, swimming and the unknown!

We booked the one day yellowstone tour out of Jackson hole since they were very responsive over the phone. Overall it was OK. Our tour driver was very nice however he was very long-winded. Too much detail about everything that the group was getting annoyed. Fortunately we had Brian’s number and he was kind enough to give the driver our feedback and the rest of the tour was better. Pros: - plenty of time for pictures - convenient pick up from a location close to where we stayed - nice people on the bus - lunch and breakfast provided - plenty of bathroom breaks Con: - stoping to see tractors and other farm equipment - bus was a little older - cup holders broken off back of the seats (holes in the fabrics) and no storage space for belongings. And lacking phone chargers. - timing to see old faithful could have been better - not as much wildlife as we expected
