Yellowstone: Old Faithful Expedition
Yellowstone: Old Faithful Expedition is a wonderful opportunity to explore the wildlife, scenery and history of the world’s first national park. The expedition begins in Jackson and heads north through the inner loop road of Grand Teton National Park. This route provides spectacular views of the majestic Teton Mountain Range along with its splendid waterways. Moose, elk, mule deer, pronghorn, coyotes, eagles, osprey and trumpeter swans frequent many of these areas. Next we enter
Yellowstone National Park and head directly to Old Faithful. We will watch Old Faithful erupt as your wildlife guide takes you on a walking tour of the Upper Geyser Basin. Bison and elk are often seen wandering among the hot pools, steam vents and geysers. After lunch at historic Old Faithful Inn, we head back toward Jackson and may stop at Yellowstone Lake, West Thumb Geyser Basin or Oxbow Bend.

• Price is $225 per adult, $180 per child age 12 and under. Jackson hotel pick-up is free; outside the town of Jackson, the pick-up fee is $25 per party. Register by May 15 to lock into this price. Trip cost includes lunch at Old Faithful, snacks,
beverages, optics, all services of a Wildlife Expeditions biologist and our customized, safari-style vehicles which are equipped with roof hatches and sliding windows to maximize viewing opportunities. Park pass not included. For families with
children, we provide child size binoculars, a fun activity pack and visual aids for a hands-on experience. Your trip begins between 6:00 a.m. and returns to Jackson before dinner.
