He was extremely knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about Yellowstone, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. He was punctual and did an excellent job keeping everyone on schedule, which can be challenging with a public tour. His timing for lunch and our visit to Old Faithful was perfect. Kyle also took us off the beaten path to discover some amazing, less-crowded areas of the park that we might not have experienced on our own. I would highly recommend Yellowstone Safari Company and especially Kyle, to anyone looking to explore Yellowstone. He truly made our trip memorable!

Our guide Kat was very experienced and knew where to find a lot of wildlife. Lunch was provided and we had it in the lodge because the weather wasn't cooperating. Yellowstone is so vast that I really think you should have a guide for the first day and go back the next couple of days to see other things or hike. The tour does not involve a lot of walking in fact you really can't stray too far from the van, but there are a lot of observation points to stop and great great photos.

He navigated us through various areas where we were able to see bears, bison, antelope, big horned sheep, and nesting osprey and swans. The van was roomy with big windows, perfect for seeing the sights. The lunch spread was perfect and he made sure to accommodate bathroom breaks and anything specific we wanted to try and see. We all had a great time and loved how hassle free it was to get through the park so we could focus on the beauty around us. Highly recommend!

We stayed in Island Park, and enjoyed the 30 minute drive to West Yellowstone at sunrise. Our idea was to have a day's orientation so we could decide what we wanted to see on our own. Wow, we got way more than we had hoped for on this tour. Highly recommend. We loved that Wes was willing to take us wherever we wanted to go. Clearly, he knows the park well and would adjust based on the group. We opted out of Old Faithful and headed toward the Lamar Valley. Within the first 20 minutes of entering the park, we had our first up close and exciting elk encounter. The day just got better and better - inlcuding what we called a bison parade as well as a creek side lunch break. Our group had lost the one camera we brought, and Wes offered the use of his very nice camera with multple lenses. Our son took some great shots and we simply paid Wes for the card. Wes brought along binoculars and a viewing scope - so we managed to see a bear! The day was long and so much fun. Yellowstone is a fabulous place, but having Wes educate us, spot wild life (we would have never seen the mountain goats without his knowing where and how to look), and share stories made the day over the top excellent. It was a wonderful luxury for the four of us share the day with no worries or concerns about driving or parking or any kind of logistics.

Yellowstone Wildlife Tours, Silver Gate, Montana…read more We had the opportunity to go on Yellowstone Wildlife Tours with Katelyn. She is very passionate and knowledgeable about Yellowstone and the wildlife that live there. She took us to a carcass that allowed us to see Wolves, Coyotes, Grizzly Bears, Pronghorn and more. She explained their interactions between the various animals and provided details beyond what we were observing. She had a scope with a camera that made it easy to really view the animals. She connected with another tour guide to share a lesson on scat, tracks and more. Katelyn would take the time to direct other tourist on where to look. She is exceptional at explaining where to focus to view wildlife with binoculars and cameras. When we asked Katelyn about the best routes to view other areas and must see/do of Yellowstone, she gave us wonderful directions and options. Including which turn offs and hikes that were appropriate for our skill level. We would recommend Katelyn, of Silver Gate Guides and Silver Gate Lodge for your next trip to Yellowstone. In fact we have already done that for several of our friends and family planning trips. Thank you for an Amazing Experience! Deb and Bob Kleinbrook

They offer military and other discounts on their entrance fee The gift shop area includes information on local, current mining operations as well as merch. This is an outdoor museum so dress for the weather. If you want to take the under ground tour be sure you are wearing closed toed shoes. (Crocs not included, I don't know why) They also have above ground tours. Part of the property is set up like a western town. Something that would grow up around a mine. Post office, apothecary, carpenter, blacksmith, etc, etc. All these buildings are set up with window displays but most are not open to the public. You just peer thru the windows. There is a memorial garden to miners. A mine yard with pieces of heavy equipment. The motorized lift, miners locker room, light room, information and equipment used in dry and wet boring, 3D representations of mines and more with information posted on the displays. You can walk up into the mine head if you are so inclined to see how the ore chutes operated. We spent about two hours here without realizing it. Very interesting museum. Staff are very personable, answered questions and suggested reading material for more on the subject. Very good, family friendly stop.
