5.0Glacier Guides and Montana Raft(2.438 reviews) - Fun, safe and very memorable! Saturday: 7:30 AM - 5:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Bike Tours • Fishing Charters & Tours • Gear Rentals • Hiking & Camping Tours
Montana is one of the smaller rafting companies and it shows in their personalized service. We had Greyson as our guide for both a half day scenic and half day whitewater and he was outstanding. He connected with both the kids and the adults, to the point we requested him for our second outing. The gear is good and the process is efficient. The whitewater is the better of the tours for our family but both were fun. I recommend springing for the private tour if you have 6 or more people. For 8 people it’s a no brained to do the private tour.See more..
5.0Paradise Adventure Company(576 reviews) - Exciting Raft Trip down Yellowstone River. (Rafting has recovered in area; the road to Gardiner repaired) Saturday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Hiking & Camping Tours • Horseback Riding Tours
Kelsey (also known as "Wonder Beard") was our guide on this class II and class III adventure just north of Yellowstone. His knowledge of rafting, safety and the river were excellent -- he showed us a great time! He was also there during the record flooding that closed Yellowstone and destroyed houses in the area a few weeks earlier. Luckily the town of Gardiner MT is in solid shape, and rafting is open and running. Please support the local Gardiner area, which also has great food (the "Wonderland Cafe and Lodge" was the best food of our whole MT trip!), lodging, the Roosevelt Arch (albeit Yellowstone's north entrance still closed atm), and lots of rafting. At the end of June, which is normally peak season (but was interrupted by the earlier flooding), this treasure of a town has availability of lodging, short wait times for restaurants, and open slots for rafting. We were easily able to travel to Gardiner via roads from Livingston MT.See more..
5.0Yellowstone Wild(485 reviews) - Outstanding guide and Yellowstone tour Saturday: 5:00 AM - 8:00 PM Hiking & Camping Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours
I want to thank Yellowstone Wild for the wonderful day we spent touring the park. We are a family of four (two teenagers) that visited the park about a month after the awful floods. We had booked our stay at the North end of the park and were delighted to find this company that was using the still restricted North entrance for tours. Our tour guide - Travis - is a Navy veteran who was absolutely fantastic. Our day started at six am and ended at six pm, and throughout the day Travis regaled us with stories on the history, geology, flora and fauna of the park. He showed us nooks and crannies on the tour that we would never have found on our own. He even changed the itinerary slightly so we could see more wildlife. We learned so much and my two teenagers will leave the park with so many nuggets of information to bring on future trips. Thank you Travis!! I also want to commend the company for being so understanding of food allergies. My daughter has multiple food allergies and I was touched to see that the company had carefully packed a separate lunch for her. These little details mean a lot when you are traveling on the road with family. I would happily come back to these folks!See more..
We booked In Our Nature Guides for two tours: a 6 mile hike in Yellowstone and the early morning nature viewing. The hike was excellent. Nancy, our guide, is a fountain of information! She also had an amazing eye for spotting tracks and other evidence of animals such as paw prints, markings on trees, and lots and lots of different types of poop. The kids asked questions for 6 hours straight and Nancy fielded them brilliantly! The early morning nature viewing was a very cool experience. We got to see a pack of wolves frolicking in a field, many bison, and mountain goats. Nancy and Cara did a wonderful job managing our party of 8 with the scopes and keeping us moving to keep the kids' attention spans. We would highly recommend this group of guides. In hindsight, we were very happy we didn't try to do it all on our own. It is a much better experience to go with someone who knows where and when to be!See more..
5.0Yellowstone Adventure Tours(220 reviews) - Great tour of Yellowstone with Ken Saturday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Multi-day Tours • Safaris • Adrenaline & Extreme Tours • Walking Tours • Eco Tours • Gear Rentals • Hiking & Camping Tours • Private Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Self-Guided Tours & Rentals • Day Trips
We went on Winter bus tour to Old Faithful on Dec 31, 2022. Ken was our guide and he was the best. He was knowledgeable and shared history facts & partial fiction about the early days of Yellowstone. He also shared the ecology& biology of Yellowstone. He made many stops to see animals/birds. We had an older wheelchair bound lady in the group that day and he was so kind to help her get opportunities to see as much as she could. It was a wonderful day and I highly recommend you ask for Ken! See more..
Maddy was a wonderful tour guide for an individualized short day of hiking in the Whitefish area. Picked me up at lodging, delivered me at the requested time at tour's end to bus stop. In between she was a font of knowledge about everything we saw on a morning and an afternoon hike, answering my questions and explaining what we saw in an integrated way that combined many subject areas: anthropology, recent and ancient history, ethnobotany, geology, and more. She knows the trails intimately; she knew, for example, exactly where the hornet's nest is located on one of the trails we hiked, and how to traverse that part of the trail to avoid the nest. She pointed out things I'd have overlooked, suggested a lovely spot for the filling lunch the outfitters provided, and maintained a comfortable hiking pace, checking to make sure it was working for this 67-year-old arthritic person. She was engaging, friendly, resourceful, and I recommend her and Whitefish Outfitters unreservedly. On a scale of 1 to 10, Maddy's an 11.See more..
5.0Good Trip Adventures Yellowstone(114 reviews) - Family hiking at its best! Saturday: Multi-day Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours • Private Tours • Day Trips
I can't rate this tour company highly enough (we did two day hikes - one through Bryce Canyon and the other through the Arches)...it was simply amazing. From the ease of texting the guide to the two day hikes themselves, I had every question answered, the people were all so friendly and the tour guide himself (John) so knowledgeable and experienced. John put us and our two young children at total ease...encouraging them to do way more walking than we would ever have achieved with them. I would recommend Good Trip Adventures to anyone. They have struck just the right balance between ecotourism and all-inclusive family fun. Thank you team!See more..

Rusty spent a day with us cross-country skiing though gorgeous snow-clad cedars and hemlocks, along Lake MacDonald, and talked about the history and area. We had lunch along the lake, took many photos, and laughed so hard when we fell down we couldn't get up.We're a family with adult kids. t's a stunning place to spend a wintry day and see the beauty of this park. Thank you, Rusty!See more..
5.0Walking Shadow Ecology Tours of Yellowstone(63 reviews) - Great Day with the Best Guide! Safaris • Eco Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours • Private Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Day Trips
We visited YNP one month after the flood and were only able to gain access to the park through the north gate was with a private guide. Ashea took us on a full day tour of the park. She had the car packed with wonderful snacks, multiple scopes and binoculars for wildlife viewing and was so knowledgeable that we just soaked it all up! We got to see bison, elk and a wolf chasing a grizzly. She took us to the upper and lower falls, yellowstone lake and timed it just right to have lunch and then see Old Faithful erupt. On the way back to the north entrance we saw the hot springs and finished up at Mammoth Springs. It was a very full day and we packed in probably 3 days worth of sights into that day. I can't imagine trying to navigate and figure out which areas to stop on our own. Having a guide was worth it and having one with over 25 years of experience and so much knowledge even better! Thank you so much Ashea- what a wonderful experience you gave my family.See more..
5.0Yellowstone Journeys(56 reviews) - Fantastic Day Tour of Yellowstone Park Multi-day Tours • Safaris • Hiking & Camping Tours • Private Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Day Trips
This tour will be one of the highlights of my trip. We had 11 in our group and our tour guide, Nolan, planned the trip for our age group and abilities. He did a wonderful job of working within the constraints caused by the flooding this year and the resulting road construction. We had plenty of time at the most popular places but also stopped at a number of places that are less well known. Nolan is a local guy, very personable in nature and knowledgeable about the area. He has a dry sense of humor and provided lots of colorful stories while we were driving. Thoroughly enjoyable day. I highly recommend this tour!See more..
Anna was an absolutely fantastic guide. She was patient and made everything we wanted to do fit into our schedule. A mountain goat blocked the trail for 45 minutes on the way back, and She handled the situation so well. She was extremely patient and educative on the situation, and kept all the hickers at a safe distance so the animal wasn’t bothered and no one was injured.See more..
5.0Paradise Adventure Co.(46 reviews) - Try the scenic float! Saturday: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Sightseeing Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours
My 12 year old son and I were a little nervous about white water rafting so we were excited to learn about the scenic float option. We had Ben for our guide and he was great - he even helped my son "steer" the boat for a while. It was a great experience with beautiful scenery! See more..
Beyond Expectations! 5 adults could not have experienced a better tour. We spent 2 days in Yellowstone with Evan who enthusiastically shared his passion for all things Yellowstone, especially the wildlife. We were so impressed with his depth of knowledge exhibited through his captivating stories and intuition. Never would we have seen the wildlife or experienced the park the way we did without Evan. He was early, provided a very clean and comfortable vehicle, with tons of snacks and beverages. Day 1 we saw the beautiful landscape of the park and day 2 he focused on wildlife. We saw lots of grizzlies, wolves, moose, dear, elk, mountain goats, herds of bison and many bird varieties. His equipment was top of the line- 5 scopes adjusted for 5 different heights. Evan sincerely cared about our experience. He went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Don’t hesitate to hire Evan. He will not disappoint!See more..

5.0Yellowstone Dreamin Adventures(29 reviews) - Make it two days and you won’t be disappointed! Saturday: 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM Multi-day Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours • Private Tours • Day Trips
We selected both the Lower Loop tour and the wild life tour. They were excellent compliments to each other and saved us SO much time and frustration with driving and trying to see everything as well as not having to find parking! Keep up the great job Debbie and Ron! We can say enough wonderful things about this group. You will not be disappointed if you choose YDA!See more..
I went on a Yellowstone Wildlife Profiles Wolf Watching Tour in March of this year, guided by Brad. The whole trip was fabulous. Brad is a great naturalist who has an almost uncanny ability to spot wildlife. Brad would stop the car and point out eagles, pronghorns, elk, and of course the ubiquitous bison. We even saw fox, moose and a mountain goat among others. Every day, we would go out before dawn to arrive deep in Yellowstone as the sun came up. The beautiful scenery and variety of wildlife was astonishing. While no one can make sure the wolves will actually show themselves, we saw wolves every day. It is an incomparable feeling to hear wolf howls in the clean, clear air of early morning against a backdrop of snow- covered mountains. We travelled in a comfortable van, and all of the group’s creature comforts were attended to- hot coffee, home-made muffins or scones after the first sighting of the morning; sufficient rest stops, water, and picnic or restaurant lunches. Excellent binoculars were provided to everyone in the group, and Brad quickly set up sighting scopes that gave us a great close view of the animals. Our trip included interesting and informative lectures with local wildlife experts. I highly recommend Yellowstone Wildlife Profiles and Brad.See more..

5.0Libby Area Chamber of Commerce(1 review) - Visitor Center and Farmers Market Ski & Snow Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours
The Chamber of Commerce building doubles as the Libby Visitor Center. When I went in on a Thursday afternoon, there was no one working the counter (explanation below). There was tons of literature and maps of Montana, "Glacier Country," Libby, and more. I picked up some literature and went outside. What was happening just outside as the weekly Thursday afternoon (3-6:30 PM) Farmers Market. All kinds of stuff from neat crafts to many kinds of food were for sale. We picked up some bagels for Friday breakfast and some donuts for immediate consumption. The Farmers Market was nicely organized and well attended.See more..
