I could not recommend this highly enough

We took the Wildlife Watching and Day Hiking combo with Matt. We had an excellent tour and a wonderful day. Matt was an awesome guide who made sure we had the best time possible. He was extremely knowledgeable of the park and wildlife. He tailored a hike to fit just what we wanted. I could not recommended this highly enough.

Aleksa's passion and knowledge were our highlights of this trip

Our first tour was with Aleksa to the canyons and waterfalls. Despite the animal life being quiet in Summer, she managed to find two wolfs, moose, and a grizzly. We had ample time to observe them with her scopes, and she even sent us footage she recorded. She is so knowledgeable not just about the park but shared so much detail about the wildlife and her honest take on how the park is taken care of. Her passion and knowledge were our highlights of this first 7 hour trip - and the hot beverages and lunch were great too.

Laura was incredible!

We had a simply amazing and wonderful day with our guide Laura on our trip to Yellowstone to view nature and wildlife in January. Laura was incredible, with a wonderful, outgoing personality and a deep knowledge of the park, its geology and the wildlife. She continuously amazed us throughout the day with facts and discussions that connected all aspects of what we were seeing. The provisions (coffee, tea, snacks, and lunch) were all top-notch. We saw a multitude of animals including bison, elk, eagles, dippers, pronghorns, (and many others) as well as a lone wolf. The spotting equipment was excellent as well. Cannot recommend this tour highly enough! If you are thinking about booking, you absolutely should!

The Perfect Yellowstone Experience

A tour with Yellowstone Wild is the perfect way to spend a day in Yellowstone. My wife and I have been on three separate tours with Yellowstone Wild, and each has been more spectacular than the last. The guides are friendly, professional and extremely knowledgeable, and they will greatly enhance your experience in the park by sharing their expertise. These tours can also be tailored to your interests and your desired level of activity, so you can be sure that you will be completely satisfied by your time in the park. I give Yellowstone Wild my highest recommendation and strongly encourage anyone interested in exploring Yellowstone to book a tour with them. You will not be disappointed!

Yellowstone Wild...delivered on the trip of a lifetime!

I have nothing but positives to say about the Yellowstone Wild experience. We saw a wide variety of animals and landscapes during our tour, including no fewer than six opportunities to watch the Junction Butte wolf pack in action. Laura was a phenomenal and gracious guide, offering insights into the wildlife, geography, and history of the park. Plus, somehow Laura and Emil got us back to the airport in nothing short of a blizzard! I highly recommend Yellowstone Wild as they delivered on the trip of a lifetime. Just ask the Yellowstone Wild team and they will let you know what to bring!

Yellowstone Wild January Photography Tour with Guide Evan Watts is the Best Photo Tour in the Lower 48!

Guide Evan Watts used his experience working and photographing in Yellowstone to maximize our opportunities on the Northern Range and the interior of the park. The wonderful powdery snow provided a beautiful contrasting background for large bull moose, icy bison, mousing foxes, rams, coyotes, river otters, bald eagles, majestic bull elk and more.This doesn't even cover the landscapes and beautiful light. And then, there were the huckleberry scones and hot chocolate for the midmorning warmup! This trip is a blur of awesomeness. Thanks, Evan!

Amazing Adventure

We had such an amazing time on our tour with Kyle. He was so knowledgeable to the movements of the wildlife. He guided us as to not only how to look and listen for them, but to plan your photo. Find the subject, observe your surroundings, choose your background for your subject, and get there without disturbing your subject… his knowledge of not only wildlife but how to really capture it, was so impressive. Couldn’t recommend him more! Will be back for another tour for sure! Thanks Kyle!

Summer 2024 Yellowstone Wild Naturalist Guides

A message from the Yellowstone Wild Team: 

Yellowstone National Park is a reminder that everything is connected and that its landscapes thrive through balance, diversity, and coexistence – as do all of us. When the world feels divided, we turn to this wild place for lessons in how to move forward together.

At Yellowstone Wild, we promise to lead by example. We will choose curiosity over judgment, compassion over indifference, and connection over division — both on and off the clock.

We welcome our guests into an environment of shared discovery guided by kindness and curiosity. On our tours, we honor the backgrounds, beliefs, and cultures each guest brings, while holding firm to the expectation of respect for one another and to this place we all care for. We believe our tours, though limited in time, have the power to establish common ground, form connections, and share experiences that bring us closer together as humans.
