What To Expect

Old Faithful

The most famous geyser in the world, Old Faithful geyser was named for its frequent and somewhat predictable eruptions, which number more than a million since Yellowstone became the world’s first national park in 1872. Guests will be able to watch Old Faithful erupt from the nearby wooden boardwalk and check major bucket list item off their list!

Old Faithful Inn

Old Faithful Inn was Built in 1903-1904 with local logs and stone from what is now the Yellowstone National Park area. The Inn is considered the largest log structure in the world. The towering lobby features a massive stone fireplace and a hand-crafted clock made of copper, wood and wrought iron serving as focal points.

Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, Great Loop Road at Canyon Village,

Yellowstone Lake

Yellowstone Lake, Grand Loop Road Between Fishing Bridge and Grant Village

Lower Yellowstone River Falls

Lower Falls, the biggest waterfall in Yellowstone at 308-feet tall, is the most famous waterfall in the park. The canyon’s colors were created by hot water acting on volcanic rock. It was not these colors, but the river’s yellow banks at its distant confluence with the Missouri River, that occasioned the Minnetaree Indian name which French trappers translated as roche jaune, yellow stone. The canyon has been rapidly downcut more than once, perhaps by great glacial outburst floods.

Fountain Paint Pot

The Fountain Paint Pots is an amazing stop in Yellowstone National Park's Lower Loop. They are mud pots located in Lower Geyser Basin in Yellowstone National Park. The Fountain Paint Pots are named for the rich reds, and vivid yellows and browns of the mud in this area. The differing colors are derived from oxidation states of the iron in the mud.

Hayden Valley

Hayden Valley is a must stop wildlife paradise and the location of the largest herd of free roaming bison in the world. We'll be watching for bears, wolves, bison, elk, mule deer, coyotes, fox, eagles, pronghorn and other critters while driving through this beautiful area!

West Thumb Geyser Basin

We'll walk along the boardwalk and discover the many beautiful hydrothermal pools located in this basin area that is an extension of the Yellowstone Lake area.

We saw moose, elk, bison, Longhorns and also a grizzly bear. we also so old faithful , Grand Canyon and waterfall. It was a long day but very enjoyable and would recommend if you have a whole day free.

My wife and I wanted to visit Yellowstone National Park and found BrushBuck Wildlife Tours while evaluating TripAdvisor reviews. Our tour was on October 4, 2019, and we were fortunate to have Seth as our tour guide. Seth picked us up on time at our hotel. During our 12-hour tour, we found Seth to be helpful, personable, and very knowledgeable. Seth answered all our questions and he made sure we were comfortable during our tour (i.e., water, snacks, lunch, and regular restroom breaks). The highlight of our tour was seeing various geysers, (including Old Faithful), as well as seeing park animals such as Elk, Bison, Moose, and a family of grizzly bears! My wife and I have done several tours worldwide and have consistently used TripAdvisor when planning our vacation. As a result, we have valued the helpful reviews of fellow TripAdvisor travelers, which have helped us when selecting a reliable tour company. Indeed, we were very satisfied in selecting Brush Buck Tours and highly recommend Seth when visiting Yellowstone National Park. Also, ask Seth to tell you the story of an explorer by the name of John Colter. Happy adventures!

Just can’t believe how incredible our 12 hour tour was with Bobby! We were picked up at our hotel. The van was very comfortable with plenty of room. It was nice to have a total of only six people on our tour. Bobby made sure we comfortable at all times and frequently offered drinks(water and soda provided) and snacks (Kind Bars and fruit). Lunch was provided. We saw all types of wildlife and stopped for multiple pictures at the most important points of interest. We were each provided binoculars to use on the tour and Bobby would set up a telescope for a closer look. He answered all of our questions from start to finish and was very knowledgeable including his great jokes too.
