Overview

  • This Wildlife Viewing Van Tour is a great way to see the unique animals of Yellowstone National Park. We begin in the fun gateway town of West Yellowstone.

    The early morning part of the tour explores wildlife haunts in the famous Shadow Canyon of the Madison River. This area is home to bear and elk.

    Later we scope for wildlife on the shoulders of one of Yellowstone's tallest peaks, Mount Washburn.

    Next we explore the Lamar Valley, known as the Serengeti of North America. We will use spotting scopes to look for wolves, bears and other wildlife. Enjoy a hot drink and morning snack while watching wolves.

    Next we visit the Mammoth Hot Springs Terraces for a short walk. If you don't feel like walking we find a safe, scenic spot for you to wait for the group near the van.

    Finally, we head back toward West Yellowstone stopping for additional wildlife sightings along the way.

    The day concludes back at West Yellowstone.
