【2CanGo】American West Yellowstone Essence 3-Day Tour

Depending on your arrival time, your tour guide will pick you up either from Salt Lake City International Airport or from your hotel in SLC. If you would like to start your tour from a different location, please let us know in advance and we will make the appropriate arrangements.

After pickup, you will begin your journey northward towards the Yellowstone region. Along the way, you will stop in Idaho Falls. Take some time to walk along the falls, get some lunch, and explore the surrounding area before continuing your journey.

In the afternoon, continue into the western region of Yellowstone National Park, where you will get your first glimpse of the park’s unique geothermal landscape. Depending on timing, your guide will introduce you to select highlights in this area, allowing you to experience Yellowstone’s natural beauty right from the start.

After exploring the Yellowstone area, you will exit the park and proceed to West Yellowstone, the main gateway town just outside the park entrance. Upon arrival, your guide will transfer you to your hotel for check-in, where you can relax and prepare for the next day’s adventure.

Accommodations:
Comfortable hotel or lodge in the West Yellowstone area (carefully selected based on availability and quality standards).

Meal arrangements: N/A

Your guide will pick you up from your hotel and the day gets going quickly. There is a lot of ground to cover and plenty worth stopping for along the way, starting in Grand Teton National Park. The mountains come into view in a way that is hard to prepare for. Your guide will take you to the best spots to take it all in, and depending on the day you may have some unexpected wildlife encounters along the way. Grand Teton has a way of surprising people.

By afternoon you will cross into Yellowstone, the world's first national park and spanning over three states due to its size. Your guide will make sure you see the highlights across both today and tomorrow, from steaming geothermal wonders to sweeping canyon views and some of the best wildlife watching in North America. No two days in Yellowstone look the same.

After a full day of exploring, you will head to your hotel in West Yellowstone to rest up before day three. Please note that dates, times, and specific stops are subject to change based on weather, water levels, and trail conditions.

Meals: Breakfast included
Accommodation: Not included

Your guide will pick you up from the hotel and head back into Yellowstone for a final morning in the park. Depending on what you did not get to see the day before, your guide will fill in the gaps and make the most of the time available.

From there you stop in Jackson Hole for lunch and a walk around town before the drive south back to Salt Lake City. Your guide will then drop you at the airport or your hotel depending on your schedule.

Meals: Breakfast included
Accommodation: Not included
