What To Expect
1
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!
2
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

Yellowstone Lake
Yellowstone Lake, Grand Loop Road Between Fishing Bridge and Grant Village
5
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.
6
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.
7
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!
8
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.

What an incredible experience! Our guide, Jesus' knowledge and passion about the Yellowstone and wildlife kept my teenagers interested and engaged throughout the day. He did such an amazing job! The small luxury bus was nice and comfortable with plenty of leg room. The large windows were great as well... it was so nice to not be driving ourselves! The picnic lunch was lovely - set in a perfect scenic spot along a small river. Our family of 5 agreed that it was a great way to experience Yellowstone! Highly recommend!

We took a full day Yellowstone lower loop tour and Faith was our guide. Not only was the tour and our guide terrific but I know we had a top notch experience because we had friends that took a similar tour 2 days before we did through a different company and when we compared our experiences, we clearly had the better one. Faith was wonderful. She was knowledgeable about all things Yellowstone and kept the 12 hour tour, moving, fresh and fun. She helped us avoid the masses at the most popular parts of the park which is essential if you want to see everything. Another thing that needs to be highlighted was Faith’s incredible ability to spot wildlife. It was amazing to see her in the middle of a story about the explorers who founded Yellowstone while driving through the winding roads and all of the sudden spot a Moose in between the tree line and a river a mile away. We were so lucky to have her skill as we were able to see Bison, Pronghorns, Moose, Elk, Bald Eagles, Bears and so much more. We had planed to go on a separate wildlife safari at dusk the following day because I was told day tours weren’t seeing many of the animals because of the heat but they would be more visible in the evening. I ended up canceling this because we saw so much with Faith. Thank you and I highly recommend this experience.

Our family did a couple of private tours with BrushBuck when we were in Jackson, WY, and the experience was simply terrific. The tours completely exceeded our expectation! First, we did the Grand Teton 4-hour tour. It was breathtaking to see all the views and the wildlife. Our guide, Andrew, has such a passion for wildlife and was a wealth of knowledge. With his insights and determination, we were able to see the famous Bear 399 and her four cubs! What an amazing thrill! Second, we did the Yellowstone 12-hour tour, which was packed full of sites and experiences. Our guide, Kim, knew so much about Yellowstone, it was basically encyclopedic. She was wonderful with our two girls and conveyed the amazing wonders that Yellowstone brings. The turkey sandwich lunch was completely delicious too! These are five star tours!
