Two Day Grand Teton & Yellowstone National Parks Tour

Itinerary

After pick-up at your hotel, you’ll start the morning with a scenic drive through Moose-Wilson Road, the Mormon Row Historic District, and Kelly Warm Springs—prime country for big views and wildlife sightings.

You’ll pause for a quick refresh at Dornan’s Trading Post, then continue north to some of the Tetons’ most iconic stops: Schwabacher’s Landing, Glacier Point Turnout, and the legendary Snake River Overlook. Late morning includes a step back in time at the historic JH Cunningham Cabin, plus wide-open valley viewing at Elk Ranch Flats and the classic river bend at Oxbow Bend.

Midday brings a relaxing picnic lunch at Colter Bay Marina, followed by a drop-off at the Jenny Lake Boat Marina for a one-hour scenic cruise on Jenny Lake. Before returning to your hotel, you’ll also visit the Craig M. Thomas Discovery & Visitor Center.

Itinerary

Your Yellowstone day begins with pick-up at your hotel, then a morning comfort stop at Flagg Ranch Resort before entering the park through the South Entrance. From there, you’ll explore the steaming shoreline of West Thumb Geyser Basin and the south shore of Yellowstone Lake, followed by a historic break at the Lake Yellowstone Hotel.

Late morning is built around Yellowstone’s biggest “wow” moments: the bubbling Mud Volcano, sweeping wildlife habitat in Hayden Valley, and the dramatic Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone—including Upper Brink and Artist Point.

After enjoying a picnic lunch, you’ll walk the boardwalks to see Excelsior Geyser Crater and the vivid colors of Grand Prismatic Hot Spring, then finish strong at the historic Old Faithful Inn to watch Old Faithful Geyser erupt before returning to your hotel.
