What To Expect

BrushBuck Wildlife Tours

After early morning pickup from your Jackson Hole hotel, your naturalist guide takes you into Grand Teton National Park. Even in the quiet of a snowy winter, wildlife can be spotted in the park and your guide knows where to look for animals. On any given day, you could see moose, bison, bighorn sheep, elk, mule deer, bald eagles, golden eagles, pronghorn, coyotes, or even wolves as you explore the park. At midday, come in from the cold to enjoy lunch in the famous western cowboy town of Jackson, Wyoming. After lunch, head back outside for a horse-drawn sleigh ride at the National Elk Refuge. Snap social media–worthy pics of the large herds as your guide explains how the elk migrate from the surrounding area to the refuge, a 24,700-acre (9,996-hectare) winter sanctuary to 47 different mammals and nearly 175 species of birds such as trumpeter swans and bald eagles. At the end of a memorable 8-hour tour of this winter wonderland, your guide returns you to your hotel where your tour ends.

12/08/2020 Best Experience Ever! A huge shoutout to Brushbuck for providing a wonderful experience from beginning to end. Their customer service is above and beyond what I have encountered from other tour operators. A special thanks to Cassie for working with me over the phone to accommodate a last minute change to our tour and her professionalism and follow up. Cassie contacted ME to make sure that I had the latest information prior to my visit. Unheard of in today’s times!!! And a HUGE appreciation for our guide NEIL who took me and my friend on the tour-of-tours Nature tour through Yellowstone. Neil’s personality is infectious. His energy, enthusiasm and passion for the outdoors is genuine and endless. He was so excited to see the wildlife; same as us! Neil’s knowledge of the animals, their environment and the surrounding area was beyond impressive and he had an answer for every question I asked. His respect for the environment and the park rules also reflects his integrity and true appreciation of nature. We were wowed by Neils “presentation” and representation of the company and just the manner in which he conducted himself. He is professional, funny, energetic and very comforting to spend several hours with. When you book your nature tour, ask for Neil, you will NOT be disappointed!

Thank you so much! Neil and Cassie are each a valued and integral part of the team at BrushBuck Wildlife Tours. We would love to have you join us again if your travels bring you to Jackson Hole, Africa, Alaska, or Nebraska for the Great Sandhill Crane migration.

Grant was our tour guide and he was awesome. He stopped often so we could get photos and look at the wildlife. He was super knowledgeable about the area and it showed in how he presented himself. At the end he gave us some great photos that he had taken.
