Yellowstone Wildlife Safari Tour

For those with a keen interest in wildlife, the Yellowstone Wildlife Safari Tour offers a specialized journey through the park’s renowned wildlife corridors within the Northern Range. Early morning or late afternoon tours are timed to coincide with peak wildlife activity, giving guests the chance to observe animals like wolves, moose, pronghorn, and more. The guides use their tracking expertise to find animals in their natural habitat throughout this region of the park—lovingly referred to as America’s Serengeti—offering incredible opportunities for wildlife viewing and photography.

Bear and Wolf Tours

2 Day and 3 Day Options

Delve deep into Yellowstone’s wilderness on this multi-day safari focused on tracking and observing two of the park's most elusive predators: wolves and grizzly bears. With an emphasis on ecological education, this tour provides unparalleled insight into the lives of these apex predators. Yellowstone Safari Co.’s expert guides use their knowledge of the park’s ecosystems to give guests an inside look into the lives of these elusive animals.

NEW! Wild Mustang Safari

The newest addition to Yellowstone Safari Co.’s offerings, the Wild Mustang Safari takes guests outside the boundaries of Yellowstone to the prairies of Wyoming. Here, you’ll witness the majesty of wild mustangs roaming freely throughout McCullough Peaks Wild Horse Management Area, located about 25 minutes east of Cody, WY. 

A unique and awe-inspiring experience for horse and wildlife lovers alike, this tour is a must for those interested in the untamed spirit of the American West and offers a unique wildlife viewing experience.

Winter Wonderland: Experience Yellowstone’s Frozen Majesty

When winter blankets the park in snow, Yellowstone transforms into a serene and magical wonderland. Yellowstone Safari Co. offers a variety of winter tours, each designed to highlight the park’s unique beauty, snow-covered wilderness, and magical winter landscapes throughout the season. 

Yellowstone Winter Wildlife Safari

The Yellowstone Winter Wildlife Safari offers a rare opportunity to see the park’s wildlife in the stillness of winter. The season is a prime time for wildlife viewing as wolves, bison, elk, and other animals stand out against the snowy landscape, making them easier to spot. Plus, Yellowstone Safari Co.’s guides are experts at navigating the park in winter conditions, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience for guests throughout the tour. 

Snowshoe Safari

For a more immersive winter experience, the Snowshoe Safari allows guests to strap on snowshoes and explore Yellowstone’s backcountry on foot. Venture off the beaten path and into quieter areas of the park, where the crunch of snow underfoot and the crisp winter air create a peaceful atmosphere for wildlife watching and landscape photography. Led by a knowledgeable guide, this tour combines adventure and education, as you trek through snow-covered meadows and forests while learning about winter ecology and animal tracking.

Yellowstone Winter Geysers & Waterfalls Tours

Yellowstone’s geysers and waterfalls are stunning in winter, with steam rising from hot springs and ice framing cascading waterfalls. Witness the park’s geothermal features in a whole new light as steam rises dramatically against the wintry surroundings. Two separate journeys, the Yellowstone Snowcoach Tour (focusing on frozen waterfalls) and the Old Faithful Winter Tour (focusing on the geothermal wonders) create a surreal seasonal experience, treating visitors to some of the most breathtaking winter scenery Yellowstone has to offer.

Winter Wolves and Wildlife Safari

2 Day and 3 Day Options

Much like the summer Bear and Wolf Safari, the winter Wolves and Wildlife Safari offers multi-day options, allowing for extended time in the park’s prime wolf-watching areas. Winter is one of the best times to observe wolves, as their dark fur contrasts against the snow, and they are often more active in search of food. Focusing on tracking wolves in the snowy Lamar Valley, guests will also have opportunities to see other wildlife like bison, coyotes, and eagles, all while learning about the unique challenges animals face in winter.

Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris

Yellowstone Safari Co.’s sister company, Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris, extends the same exceptional tour experiences to the Tetons and surrounding areas.
