Spending the day on Yellowstone’s lower loop will give you an opportunity to experience the best of what Yellowstone has to offer. A long the way stop and see the famous Old Faithful Geyser as it erupts 150 feet into the air. Walk along the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and view the Lower Falls as water plunges 300 feet into the canyon. Visit the colorful hot springs and other thermal features at one of the many geyser basins including Fountain Paint Pots, Black Sand Geyser Basin, and Wet Thumb Geyser Basin. Watch for bison, elk, bears, wolves and numerous other animals in Hayden Valley and other wildlife hotspots. This is the recommended tour if you just have one day and want to see the best of Yellowstone.

John was a fantastic tour guide! We had an amazing day spotting elk, bison, a bald eagle, a grizzly and even two moose from far away. It was a really unique way to explore the park and learn more.

Before booking with "Tied to Nature" for a long planned and highly anticipated family trip to Yellowstone NP for my family of 9, I did extensive research and received many referrals for a knowledgable and trustworthy guide service. "Tied to Nature" did not disappoint. Our guide, Brian went above and beyond to make sure our 2 days of tour included exactly what we wanted to see...especially the wildlife. His extensive knowledge of the park gave us the opportunity to visit and learn about the most interesting park highlights while he navigated to the best wildlife viewing locations. My grandchildren were thrilled to see Bison, Pronghorn, Coyote, Black Bear, Grizzly and so much more. We could not ask more of a park guide...Brian was terrific. Even the picnic lunch which "Tied to Nature" provided exceeded our expectations! I highly recommend!

I booked this tour in hopes that our two teenage grandsons would be able to experience Yellowstone at its best - and it certainly delivered! Jared tailored our experience to what we wanted to see and knew exactly where to take us to see wildlife. 9 bears, elk, prong-horns, bison, marmots, and a wolf were the highlights! He knew so much about the park as a local and knew how to engage the grandsons in the experience - despite starting out at 5:30am! The bag lunch was exceptionally good and scored an A+ from the boys! He also provided us all the photos taken with his spotting scope during our tour. We were very happy with our experience and would book with Tied to Nature again on a trip to Yellowstone.

With Brian as our guide we had an amazing and delightful day touring Yellowstone. His knowledge, personality, patience and perseverance made for a memorable experience. The sights are breathtaking, the waterfalls magical and the animals wildly entertaining. We were 6 seniors, ages 67 - 80 sharing a "bucket list" trip to Yellowstone, Mt Rushmore, Custer State Park and The Badlands. Hands down, the best tour of our 3 week trip Out West! Perfect ending...as we were leaving the park we saw a bear. No need for binoculars, just that close. Ambling along, minding his business and scouting the tree line on the other side of the field.

This was a fantastic tour and a large part of the awesomeness was our guide Scott. Yellowstone is a must do but you need to do it with a guide like Scott. We learned so much more because we didn't know all the questions we should ask but he filled in facts along the way that allowed us to ask and learn so much more than we ever imagined. We saw so many unbelievable views and we walked away with such a bigger appreciation for this park with Scott's help. Can't say enough nice things about this park and our guide.

This was our first time visiting Yellowstone. Searching online, we decided to book a private tour with “Tied to Nature” on Thursday. Brian picked us up early in the morning at our hotel for the southern loop tour. On our drive up from Jackson Hole to our hotel in Island Park on Wednesday, we had already stopped at “Old Faithful”. Upon hearing this and knowing we would also be spending Friday in the park, Brian asked if we would like to pivot our tour from the full southern loop tour. It was so cool how flexible Brian was with our tour and how enthusiastic he was in helping us see everything we wanted to see! Brian had professional binoculars available and a scope with the iPhone attachment which allowed the wildlife video he had taken on our tour to be easily airdropped to our phone. We were able to see a great grey owl perched in a tree, bison meandering across the road, young swans gliding across the water, to name a few. Brian was very knowledgeable and hospitable, providing snacks and a delicious bag lunch from a local restaurant with selections made prior to the tour. Brian was helpful in planning the stops we would make on our own on Friday. Brian gave us very specific directions on where and when to go for the best opportunity to see some wolves! We followed his advice and were able to see the wolves in the Lamar Valley! Amazing! Brian was the perfect guide! We give this tour our highest recommendation!

We are two retired couples on our first trip to Yellowstone and chose Tied To Nature to show us the southern loop. Our guide, Steve, was on time to pick us up and shared tons of sights and information throughout the day. We saw numerous geo-thermals, male bison, several female herds, elk, and other wildlife. Of course, Steve guided us to best viewing of Old faithful and Grand Prismatic. The day was smooth, worry-free, filled with insightful information and of course sights like nowhere else. We are pleased with every aspect of the tour and will choose Tied to Nature again.
