Had a great time with Irwin this trip. We did tours of the Yellowstone and Grand Teton National parks over 2 days. He was super knowledgeable about all the wildlife and was a pro photographer too. Highly recommend this as a way of getting oriented with the park. read more

Edited to add: I'm keeping an abridged version of the original review for reference, but I want to commend the business for reaching out so quickly to make amends after our experience didn't meet expectations. Taren was exceedingly apologetic and accommodating. It turns out they were handling an unusually high volume of reservations that day, and unfortunately, ours slipped through the cracks. Her service recovery was excellent. Given the business's consistently high ratings, I have no doubt that our one-off situation will be taken as a learning opportunity to help them continue delivering excellent tours to future clients. Original abridged review: **Disappointed by the experience -- not what we paid for, though our guide saved the day** I hate to leave a review like this, but our experience didn't match what was promised or paid for. We booked an early morning safari in advance as part of a bachelorette weekend, expecting a seamless start to a packed day. Unfortunately, the company forgot our reservation entirely, and despite repeated calls, no one arrived until two hours late -- well past the peak wildlife viewing time and after significant disruption to our schedule. Several advertised amenities, including breakfast and hot beverages, were missing, and communication throughout was poor. A minimal refund was eventually offered, but only after we pushed for it. That said, our guide Barry was outstanding. He came in on his day off, brought great energy, was knowledgeable and engaging, and did his best to salvage the situation. We're grateful to him. Ultimately, though, the overall experience was disappointing. For a premium tour marketed as professional and seamless, it missed the mark. We hope the company improves its customer service and reliability moving forward. read more

On this foggy morning in May 2023, our girl trip trio saw two moose, elk, mountain sheep, many birds and a mother-flipping grizzly bear! Our tour guide, Jimmy, was so welcoming and knowledgeable that even on a foggy morning, he helped us get shots of wildlife that nearby guides couldn't find even when we were all next to each other looking for the same thing. Worth every penny to make this trip epic! Don't miss it. read more

This will be the highest recommendation of any business that I have reviewed. Originally booked a whole day tour of Yellowstone through a different operator. The afternoon before we were scheduled, I was texted that they were canceling the next day as they predicted bad weather & possible road closures. The tour co we were on in the Tetons said they were still going but did not have spare seats. Other guests mentioned they had gone out with Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris earlier in week & had good experience. Called immediately upon return to hotel & got booked for next day ! ( So happy as we were scheduled to fly out the day after and this tour was reason for trip. ) Jeff Sanders picked us up promptly & was the best guide ever! We scored with this change of plans. We saw all the major sites - Old Faithful, Artist Point , Grand Prismatic and WILDLIFE! Bison, elk, bald eagles, a couple of grizzly bears and a pack of wolves. Great stuff with an informative guide that was just the most kind individual too. He took great care of us / making sure we got the best views and stayed warm. The lunch & snacks were top level good and I was happy to see they used recyclable packaging. Book with this tour company & consider yourself blessed if you get Jeff Sanders as your guide!

Scott Mellor was our guide and was excellent. We requested Jocelyn as our guide based on a family recommendation however, Scott couldn't have been any better. He was knowledgeable, personable and accommodating to our group with the tiny bladders. We saw so much wild life on our excursion because of Scott's knowledge. Highly recommend. read more

Went on this tour in December 2022. The van ride around the most scenic spots to view wildlife which is guided. The tour drivers with the company relay sightings to each other so they can optimize catching the wildlife for the customers. And plenty of wildlife were seen. Our driver - "Dave" was excellent! He was personable, friendly, knowledgable, patient, and very thorough. A group of friends going on one of these is best - we had 3 couples and had the tour to ourself. The tour is complete with snacks, ice water, and a signature complementary flask. Lots of time to take pictures. This was so worth it! read more

When we got into the vehicle there were snacks and water which was really nice. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the animals & the sight seeing.. the views are absolutely gorgeous and the animals are so cool. The driver, Kayla, was very knowledgeable, knew a lot about wild life in Jackson Hole, and the surrounding towns. Kayla was very kind, offered to take pictures of us, and was really good at spotting the animals. She spotted a mouse! We were thrilled! For the driver, there are a few things I would improve. Due to kayla having a-lot of knowledge, there were a lot of stories told, which led to very minimal conversation back and forth. It was hard to process the facts because we were jumping from story to story. The last hour and half we were looking for bears but unfortunately couldn't find any. We did see bison more than once which was cool, but towards the last hour and a half the ride felt dragged out and became uninteresting. In the middle of our tour, we did get stuck in the snow for about 30-40 mins. Which wasn't a huge problem because we got to watch a moose! I would recommend this safaris and would definitely go again! read more

What a wonderful experience! My wife and I booked the half day tour and were picked up that morning at our lodge. Our guide Pete was phenomenal. He made sure we had all the comforts we needed, including snacks, drinks, etc. We got to be within a few feet of about 20 Bull Moose, several maturing male Bison and dozens of Big Horn sheep. We also saw waterfowl and a Bald Eagle, which was much bigger than the ones we have back home. Pete was so knowledgeable, he was great at answering all our questions. If you go on this tour I would highly recommend asking for Pete's tour. While you share these experiences on location with other tours and many photographers, Pete took us to a place where we saw the Bison and no one else was around. It was such a humbling experience to be that close to such a magnificent and storied animal and have it all to ourselves. read more

For my birthday trip to Wyoming, my husband and I booked a full-day, private tour of Yellowstone with Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris. Our tour guide was Dave Green, and he did a fantastic job of being informative and entertaining. Dave picked us up from our hotel at 6:30 am on the dot and we headed off into the Grand Tetons. He had muffins from the don't-miss Persephone's Bakery along with juice and water to keep us satisfied until lunch. I mentioned that I really wanted to see a moose, and he immediately took us to an area where moose were known to hang out. We saw a female moose and her calf (the attached picture is from the next day when my husband and I went back to the same spot and saw a large male moose). I can't begin to describe the incredible beauty of Grand Tetons and Yellowstone, and Dave knew all the best spots for awe-inspiring views and animal sightings. We also made it to Old Faithful in time for its 9:36 am eruption, and, again, Dave knew exactly where we should stand to get the best photos. Spending almost 12 hours in a vehicle with a stranger can sometimes be a bit awkward, but Dave was so pleasant. We immediately liked him and felt comfortable enough to chat and ask any questions we had. He wore a mask at all times around us, and the company policy mandates that all customers wear masks when not eating or drinking. I would highly recommend a private tour with Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris (and definitely one with Dave as your guide) because not only are you in for an amazing day, but you'll also learn about things that will inform the rest of your stay in the Jackson Hole/Yellowstone area. read more

We ended up not skiing and called to schedule this safari. They were able to get us in for the sunset tour that day which was perfect for us. Scott was our guide and he found spots so we saw more animals than expected which was great. Moose, bald eagles, bison, mule deer, elk and big horn sheep. Would do this again! read more

Our tour was amazing. we had Colin and he was incredible. From the minute we got in he spotted local wildlife and didn't hesitate to give us information he knew. To say he was fantastic was an understatement. He obviously is a step way beyond a tour guide.If I ever get an opportunity again I would absolutely do a tour just because of Colin. I encourage you to ask for him, he is that good!!! read more

Brent took us on our half day wildlife safari and it was awesome! He welcomed our group at our hotel at 730 am with water, muffins, and snacks. The van was warm and comfortable. We were each provided a set of binoculars, and asked what we would hope to see. From elk, fox, moose, big horn sheep, and vision we got to see them all, with the added bonus of sage grouse and a few coyotes! Whenever we stopped, Brent would deploy the spotting scope and show us a closer view of the animals, and have a few tips on how to get photos through the scope. I would definitely recommend this company for your wildlife safari trips. read more

Nothing but amazing things to say about Jeffrey, our guide for the full day tour on our Jackson Hole wildlife safari. We booked a full day tour for our party of 6 and Jeffrey was incredibly accommodating, indulging us every time we wanted to stop, even if it meant turning around (which we did several times). We were picked up from our rental house promptly at 7am and were met with a variety of light breakfast foods and OJ. There were also snacks and pre filled reusable water canteens (that you get to keep!) so we stayed properly hydrated and nourished throughout the scenic drive. Being a born and raised Florida girl, I had little expectations of what kind of wild life we would see. I was blown out of the water with the amount of animals we saw and Jeffrey's informative and knowledge dialogue throughout the drive. We saw moose (definitely my favorite), elk, mountain sheep, bald eagles, swans, and bison. Jeffrey also had a handy little spotting scope that he would set up for wildlife that was a little further away. I could literally see the individual hairs on the bison and moose through that thing! Towards the end of the tour, we stopped at a very nice little Mediterranean restaurant, Figs (shoutout to our waiter Michael) I was definitely impressed as it was much more high end than I had expected, and the food was delish! Overall, this was one of my favorite experiences of Jackson and I would 100% recommend not just Jackson Hole wildlife safari, but highly encourage you to request Jeffrey as your guide. The tour itself was beautiful, but he heightened the experience by a landslide. I'd give him a 10/5 if I could. read more

We took a half day sunset Safari with Tiffany. She was such a nice person and a diligent and knowledgeable guide. We were picked up at our hotel and half the price if we had used the hotel to book (they give a gourmet lunch and better snacks and maybe wine for an extra 700.00!) Book directly with (maybe Sandy). We saw the snow on the mountains and very little on the ground. In March, the temperature was 49 degrees the day we went but to us, it felt like 60! I was very confused with all the different reviews from people. I am so glad we chose this company and spent the time with Tiffany. read more

Of all the different tour companies, choose this one :). It is really well run and we had the best time. They put a lot of thought into the details. And the guides are great. We toured with Jeffrey, who was very knowledgeable. We also toured with Jimmy who was super nice and made our Yellowstone day a blast. We saw all sorts of animals and toured everything really efficiently and were able to focus on the experience rather than logistics of everything, which is important particularly with how busy things get at Yellowstone. Also I loved the snacks and lunch they offered!! read more

We came to Jackson Hole not knowing anything and booked a safari with this company.

We had an incredible time on the evening half-day tour with our guide Brandon! He was super knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife, and didn't hesitate to answer any questions we had. We were led to various beautiful outlooks and saw moose, a bear, bison, various birds, muskrats, and more. (Binoculars were provided to help us see) Brandon was extremely personable and had so many cool stories to tell. We felt very comfortable and had a great time! We are so glad we made the drive to Grand Teton and got to experience this tour! Would highly recommend! read more

The very best way to see Yellowstone Park! An expeditious use of your time, especially if you only have one day, to view the main geological features and various animals. We were treated to a wolf pack/elk showdown, dozens of bison and a mother moose and cub. Mike, our knowledgeable and attentive driver, was always on the lookout for animals. We had plenty of photo ops and good food for a family/nature experience of a lifetime. What a memory! read more

Brandon Navratil guided our tour. He was a wealth of information, completely accommodating to our interests and needs and extremely well-versed in the park, the animals and anything else about which we had questions. Despite the fact that we were touring on a very hot day when most of the animals were seeking a cool shady place, we saw bison, elk, pronghorn, several species of bird, including the white pelican and great blue heron (adults and a nest with three babies, no less), mule deer and a moose. We also saw some of the most beautiful spots in Grand Teton National Park, culminating with a sunset behind the majestic Grand Tetons. Little known fact: Brandon is a National Geographic photographer and filmmaker. Boom! read more

Barry was our guide and led us on our half day tour. He was great about following COVID guidelines with masks in the vehicle, encouraged use of hand sanitizer and wipes that were provided. He picked us up from our vacation condo and was full of knowledge about the local area flora and fauna. Barry knows a lot of helpful information for optimal wildlife viewing! We saw elk, bighorn sheep, bison, moose, coyote, mule deer and two coyotes. Our guide was quick to spot these animals and aided in capturing amazing photo ops. We highly recommend this guided half day tour for anyone looking to explore the Grand Teton National Park and its surroundings complete with facts and recommendations for local sites and food. Thanks so much, Barry! read more

My husband and I had an amazing day with Barry W yesterday on a private tour of Yellowstone. He was early to pick us up and had snacks for the trip ready to go. I am gluten free and for lunch there was gluten free food for me for lunch as well. Our guide customized the trip to us & therefore we had a combination of car touring and hiking. We saw moose, bison, bald eagle babies, elk and antelope. The thermals were beautiful and we learned so much about the environment and the nations first national park. If you go I'd recommend asking for Barry as your guide. He was really exceptional: friendly and knowledgeable. read more

We had wonderful experience. If you book I would try to request Dave he has over 25 years experience doing this and he was great company!

The tour was great and the guide was good. However, they made me pay for 2 even though I was single, which in my opinion is borderline thieving. I completely understand COVID has been hard on businesses, but that's not a reason to take it out on people who have no choice but to spend the holidays alone because of it. read more
