What To Expect

Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

Your expert guide will meet you at the Pavilion next to the Upper Falls Parking Area at 8AM. This is also the staring point for Uncle Tom's Trail. The hike is a 6-mile loop. The hike is along the Canyon Rim, through the forest out to Ribbon Lake, and then past a geyser basin, Clear Lake, and the Wapiti Meadows with big views of the Hayden Valley. If you hike one trail in Yellowstone this is it!

Family met Emily our tour guide early and she was so full of energy - it got us all excited. Grand Canyon was incredibly beautiful and Emily was full of interesting facts of history and geology and animals of the park we enjoyed every moment of the (6) hour hike. I would rate this hike higher if I could - do it if you can.

By showing up??!! It will be helpful to let us know they are canceling ahead of time. We drove 60 miles with 50 miles wind gust to get there at 8:00 am .

We had to cancel this departure due to the wind storm. This route in particular is prone to falling trees when the wind becomes severe. I am sorry we could not get you sooner notice.

This hike exceeded our expectations!! We expected (and saw) beautiful scenery including the absolutely beautiful canyon and falls, geothermal features, and meadows. But in addition to the views, our guide, Emily, was so much fun! She clearly loves her job and her enthusiasm was contagious. She had fascinating stories to share and told them in her own unique, hilarious way. This is a great hike for someone wanting to see more than just the paved paths but not comfortable doing so without a guide. I highly recommend this tour!
