Price
On the Best Winter Yellowstone Tour From Salt Lake you will travel through northern Utah and into Idaho, before traversing the Targhee National Forest, through Island Park and into Montana and West Yellowstone, which borders Yellowstone National Park.
There will be a short break in West Yellowstone to enable you to visit the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center (included in the tour price). You will then head north out of town, passing through a small section of Yellowstone which is separated from the rest of the park by a small mountain range. This part of the park is the best chance we have of seeing moose on the tour.
Our path takes us to Bozeman and we’ll spend the night there or in Livingston. Tomorrow we’ll make our way to Yellowstone’s north entrance and the wildlife portion of this tour Please take a look at the Lamar Valley Wildlife part of your tour in a lot more detail.
After visiting the northeast part of Yellowstone and checking out the wildlife there on day two, you will return to West Yellowstone, where you will spend the next two nights.
On the third day of your tour, you will enjoy the Old Faithful trip, either by snowcoach or snowmobile. This will take you through Yellowstone’s main geyser basins to the Upper Geyser Basin. Please check out the Old Faithful And Upper Geyser Basin portion of your tour in more detail.
Day four sees you heading out to Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, an unexpected treat in this winter wonderland of thermal features! You’ll once again travel by snowcoach or snowmobile, making your way north on the lower loop, past Gibbon Falls and Norris Geyser Basin, to the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Please take a look at the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone part of your tour in a lot more detail.
You will stay the night in West Yellowstone again, and start your return trip to Salt Lake in the morning, traveling once again through Idaho and back into Utah, with the tour ending in Salt Lake City.
