<p>Your adventure will begin around 9 AM when your tour guide picks you up either from the Salt Lake City Airport or from a hotel of your choosing. If you’d like to start your tour from an area other than Salt Lake City, please let us know and we’ll make arrangements.</p> <p>If you arrive before 12 PM, you will have the opportunity to choose between a half-day tour in Salt Lake City or a half-day trip to Volcano Hot Springs.</p> <p><strong>If you choose the Salt Lake City half-day trip,</strong> you will be taken to see various sites in Salt Lake City, including Temple Square, Antelope Island, the State Capitol Building, and the Hill Aerospace Museum.</p> <p><strong>Temple Square</strong> is often considered the heart of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, also known as the Mormons. This historic area contains the world-famous Salt Lake City Temple, Tabernacle, and Beehive House – all significant landmarks that must be visited!</p> <p>Inspired by the US Capitol Building in Washington DC, the <strong>Utah State Capitol Building</strong> is both stunning and beautiful. This building serves as the seat of government for all of Utah, housing the chambers and offices of the Utah State Legislature, the Governor's office, and the Attorney General's office.</p> <p>After exploring these Salt Lake City sights, you will either be dropped off at a hotel in Salt Lake City or driven to nearby Volcano Hot Springs for your hotel drop-off.</p> <p><strong>If you opt for the Volcano Hot Springs half-day trip,</strong> your tour guide will take you directly from Salt Lake City to the Volcano Hot Springs area. These world-famous hot springs provide warm water from deep beneath the Earth's surface. The minerals in these waters offer health benefits and nourish your skin as you soak. For an additional fee, you can enjoy one of two types of hot springs. The first type is an all-natural hot spring, with waters continuously flowing into an adjoining river, providing clean, odorless water. The other type is a thermal cave with warm, crystal-clear water that maintains a constant, comfortable temperature. Regardless of your choice, you'll feel relaxed and rejuvenated after your soak.</p> <p>Depending on your airplane's arrival time and chosen itinerary, you will either be dropped off at a hotel in Salt Lake City or at Volcano Hot Springs.

On a calm day, the sky reflects off the lake, providing a stark contrast with the desert mountains of Utah.</p> <p>Following your visit to Antelope Island, you'll be driven three hours north to the town of <strong>Idaho Falls</strong>. This town is renowned for its large man-made waterfall that stretches across the length of the city. The pristine and sparkling waters offer a perfect backdrop for personal or family photos!

When the sun sets, this region becomes the perfect place for stargazing, free from the glare of bright city lights.</p> <p>Snowmobiling is by far the most convenient way to travel in this snow-covered tundra!

For $225 per person, you'll receive all the essentials for exploring West Yellowstone: a snowmobile, appropriate clothing, insurance, and gas.</p> <p>Finally, we'll return to West Yellowstone and drop you off at your hotel, allowing you time to rest and prepare for the next day's journey.</p> <p><strong>Accommodation options:</strong> Yellowstone Lodge, Gray Wolf Inn, Three Bear Lodge, Stagecoach Inn, Brandin' Iron Inn, 320 Guest Ranch, or a similarly high-quality hotel.</p>

Due to winter-related closures of certain areas of Yellowstone to vehicle traffic, your tour guide will guide you the rest of the way using snowshoes, creating a truly unique experience. Compared to other hot springs in the park, Mammoth Hot Springs is massive, showcasing its white chalky terraces, colorful pools, hissing steam vents, and cascading water.</p> <p>Following your visit to Mammoth Hot Springs, you'll return to <strong>West Yellowstone</strong> for a warm dinner at one of the many restaurants in the area.

These snow-coaches provide the perfect vantage point to admire the beautiful winter scenery of Yellowstone, passing by picture-perfect vistas, snow-covered trees, and steaming hot springs.</p> <p>During the journey, the snow-coach will make a stop at <strong>Fountain Paint Pots</strong>, a unique thermal feature that is sure to captivate you.
