    Easy transfer at the w Yellowstone visitors center to our tour bus . Our party of 12 was accommodated with our own coach , with the best tour guide Sam. She was so informative and really made our day incredible .

    Just go. This is a must do trip! Not for the feint of heart-- cross country skiing in Yellowstone Park is a massive multi day workout with our incredible "back country babe" guides, but the food is epic and the yurts and sauna will leave you feeling refreshed and ready for the next day. Thank you Nadia, Piper, Connie, Arlin... it's been over a year and we're still talking about it!

    This is the ABSOLUTE BEST way to experience Yellowstone in the winter. XC-Skiing get you access to places in the Park that are normally not available to visitors in other seasons. We stayed in the Yurtlets (heated room with comfortable beds) and were served gourmet quality dinners(steak, salmon, and pozole) with dessert!! The guides and crew took us on XC-skiing routes according to our skill/ability or desire for either hard or easy skiing. I would only visit Yellowstone in the winter with Yellowstone Expeditions. Arden, Nadia, and all the staff/crew go out of their way to ensure your comfort and enjoyment of this amazing adventure.

    Spent 5 days at their Yurt camp. It was a great experience. Staff is highly competent, friendly and helpful. Food was great, yurts were warm, bed comfortable and snow coaches were comfortable. The staff knows the park and its flora and fauna very, very well and enthuiastically share information. Really had a great time. Why only 4 stars. Can't bring myself to give 5 when you have to use an outhouse. :)

    We went to the yurt camp for the first session of the winter, December 21st-December 24th. It is an amazing opportunity to be in Yellowstone in Winter. We essentially had the place to ourselves. Our guides were amazing! Accommodating, physically fit, knowledgeable and upbeat. They tailored the outings to the ability of the skiers and took us places you could never see in Summer. The food was good and plentiful, the yurts were warm and comfortable. Don't be afraid of the outhouse. It's heated and clean, pretty darn nice considering what you are doing and where you are. Make sure you are taking plenty of photos because when you get back you will want to be reminded of the amazing place you went and what you did there.

    We recently rented snowmobiles from Yellowstone Vacation Tours for a trip into the park, to Old…read moreFaithful. We were very pleased with everything about the adventure! The staff in the office were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The snowmobiles were in great shape and work flawlessly! Our guide, Roy, did a super job! He gave us clear instructions on how to use the machines and the 'rules of the road.' Along the way he stopped at the interesting/beautiful locations and taught us many interesting facts. He is an outstanding guide! Very entertaining. I would definitely rent from them again. And a special thanks to Kennedy for all his help too!

He was extremely kind,…read morefantastic at communicating with everyone about the challenging segments of the tour, and made sure everyone had a great time. What stood out most to us was how incredibly knowledgeable he was. He taught us about Edgar Howell and the history of the bison population in the park, how to differentiate coyotes from foxes, the Bubbly Paint Pot--how it was formed and became a giant sulfuric acid pond, the remnants of the concrete road, the 1988 fire, the earthquake, and the consequences of those natural events on the park. He also explained how mineralized, super dead trees were formed and, most importantly, how Yellowstone's bio-ecosystem is changing the world, with potential futures for biodiesel and microplastic-consuming organisms! We could tell this guy loves his job so much that he became a nerd--in the best way possible. He made the entire group feel comfortable, was always ready to answer questions, and happily chatted with anyone interested. He's extremely funny; we couldn't help laughing out loud at his hilarious and brilliant safety instructions. We definitely had a blast on this snowmobile tour, and it was 110% worth every penny because Ben was our guide!!! Book Yellowstone Vacation Tours ASAP, especially with Ben if you can. To the Yellowstone Vacation Tour big boss: please don't ever let Ben go, because we WILL be back and will ask for him. Also, give him a raise--because if you haven't, I mean, what are you even doing?! ‍

    I toured Yellowstone National Park on three separate days (12/17-12/19/2018) in snowcoaches…read moreprovided by Alpen Guides. Since the cost of the tours was included in a vacation package provided by a travel company, I'm not sure about Alpen Guides' specific prices. This review is based on how much I appreciated the tour itself. I went on two tours to Old Faithful & one to the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. The Grand Canyon tour included a box lunch. The Old Faithful tour didn't include a meal but you could purchase something to eat at the Old Faithful visitor's center restaurant if you wanted to. I was so excited about riding the snowcoaches! In Yellowstone, snowcoaches are a normal mode of transportation during the winter but I'd never ridden one or even seen one in person before. In lieu of regular tires, the back portion of a snowcoach has tracks like a tank & the front part has something that resembles skis so it can plow through the snow. The reason why I was so anxious to ride one is because the kid in me remembered the old "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" animation special where the narrator rode one. For each tour, I was picked up just before 8:30 am near the front of the motel where I was staying. We normally returned back from the tour around 4:30 pm. The tour groups are usually small (the ones I went on ranged from 4 to 8 tourists with either one or a couple of driver/tour guides). On the three days I went, I rode with customers from Ohio, Alabama, Maryland, Canada, Utah, and the Phillipines (among other places). We were told not to throw gum or candy wrappers on the ground inside the park because they want to keep Yellowstone as natural as possible. During the winter season when there's lots of snow, they only allow snowcoaches & snowmobiles in Yellowstone. Snowcoaches have a speed limit of 25 mph while snowmobiles have a speed limit of 35 mph. Because snowmobiles are allowed to go faster, snowcoach drivers are supposed to pull over to the side and let them pass. Snowmobile drivers usually travel in groups & from my observation behaved like groups of people in a motorcycle club; like they owned the road even though most of them were riding snowmobiles for the first time. The crowds in Yellowstone are small & spread out in December so even with the snowmobilers we felt like we almost had the park to ourselves. The worst thing about the snowmobilers is when we're quietly taking pictures of wildlife & then they drive up en masse & unintentionally scare the animals off. Our drivers/tour guides were excellent at their job. They had eyes like hawks, pointing out such sights as bald eagles nesting in the trees that most of us would've missed. They knew everything about the various types of trees and wildlife. My favorite part was other than seeing the wildlife was listening to the guides tell stories about their experiences in Yellowstone. One tour guide told us about when he was by himself in the park & a grizzly began approaching him. He had to use bear spray to temporarily slow it down so he could get in his vehicle & drive away. Another guide told us about how bald eagles mate for life & how they sometimes test the worthiness of a mate during courtship by doing a death spiral. A death spiral is when they lock talons high in the air, tumble towards the earth & then let go just before hitting the ground. That's how they decide whether their mate is a ride or die. If you're trying to decide which tour to choose, I'd recommend that you go on both. The Old Faithful tour has the best opportunity for souvenirs due to the two gift shops near the geyser. Also, there's a restaurant beside one of the souvenir shops. The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone tour is popular too because tourists love taking selfies with the canyon waterfall in the distant background. The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone tour includes a boxed lunch that consists of a cold sandwich (roast beef, turkey, etc.), small bag of chips & Oreo cookies. We ate the boxed lunch inside the Canyon Visitor Education Center (where you can see animal skulls & pelts). You'll see wildlife on both tours but I saw more bison on the Old Faithful tour. Every time you venture into Yellowstone it's likely you'll notice something you didn't see the day before. I enjoyed riding the snowcoaches but my favorite was the maroon bombardier that has been running since the 1950s that's nicknamed Chip. It also had a roof that the driver sometimes opened when Chip was parked. You could stand up, stick your head out & take pictures. The other snowcoaches were nice too, although they looked more modern. All of them were toasty inside but during the winter you should wear warm clothing because you will get out of the ride & walk some. The weather fluctuated from single digits to the twenties later in the afternoon. Alpen Guides is as good as it gets when it comes to sightseeing tours. Five stars!

    The good: Van was heated, lunch was good, everyone was safe…read more The bad: Don was like listening to Fox News. He talked over us (on a microphone blasting the van) while we were trying to have family time and a family conversation. He was the main attraction at the park that day! We asked him not to talk about politics because we weren't interested in his arm chair quarterbacking. He declined. He didn't ask much about our opinions about where to tour that day. We are locals from Wyoming. Last year a tour operator (at a different company) laid out options and she encouraged us to make our own decisions. If you like not making decisions or having input, listening to Yellowstone facts (sprinkled with politics) blasted into your ears while you drive through pristine Yellowstone, Don is for you!

The guides are friendly, knowledgeable, and well-connected with the local wildlife watching community, which lets each other know where the wolves are. YNP is vast and you are often looking at animals that are too far away to see with binoculars. Wild Serenity's spotting scopes are incredibly powerful and allow you to see animals you would otherwise not be able to see. Pictures and videos of the animals you see through the spotting scopes are available after the tour. I highly recommend using a professional service if you want to see YNP's wolves (or other park animals that are less numerous and generally avoid humans, like grizzlies, moose, and mountain lions). Wild Serenity provides an awesome experience and it's well worth it!
