This group tour from Cody, Wyoming covers 256 miles of ground taking approximately 11-12 hours to complete. Lunch is provided and we always try to take you to one of our favorite locations to picnic in the park, either by a slow-moving river or an amazing view. The ‘Lower Loop’ focuses on the southern half of Yellowstone showcasing the Yellowstone supervolcano caldera, forests of lodgepole pine, the largest alpine lake in North America, and over 10,000 hydrothermal features including the largest hot spring in the hemisphere and the largest predictable geysers in the world.
We always see bison on this tour, and typically see elk, grizzly bear and black bear. Other potential wildlife sightings include the Wapiti wolfpack, golden eagles, moose, coyote and bighorn sheep.
*PICKUP IN PARK AT FISHING BRIDGE GENERAL STORE AT 9AM AVAILABLE! *
Why take a guided tour to Yellowstone with us:
Yellowstone is hard to do on your own, and often takes multiple days to see all the sights. It is difficult to just drive in with a map and leave with a rewarding experience in one day, especially for the driver. Most will end up turning around!
What we do as guides is far more than drive you around from stop to stop. We study the park thoroughly and share a great deal of information about Yellowstone Park: the history, wildlife, hot springs, geysers, the waterways, supervolcanos and much more. We also know which stops to skip, how much time to spend at each feature and the best viewpoints to access while knowing geyser eruption schedules and when to get you home. Our goal is to guide you through the national park in a timely, enjoyable fashion that’s exciting for all. We also know all the best bathrooms and gift shops!
Lastly, we are an active tour company, so we get out and walk the features with you. If someone wants to stay behind or sit out a stop we know exactly where to relax and will ensure you know where to join back up with the group. We tend to walk over 10,000 steps (~ 3 miles) every tour (and willing to do more). You will never get a lazy guide from us. Take a CoveredGround tour, you will not regret it! We are the PROS!
