Terrific Private Two-Day Tour of Yellowstone
I just returned from a terrific two-day private trip to Yellowstone with Yellowstone Day Tours, starting out of Jackson. I wanted to focus primarily on seeing the landscape and wildlife in Yellowstone -- as opposed to the geothermal features -- and because the trip was private, my guide was able to customize it accordingly. I was not disappointed. We saw nesting herons, coyotes, four black bears (including one cub) and a grizzly bear, elk, pronghorn antelope, mountain goats (rare!), trumpet swans, a marmot, unita ground squirrels (fairly ubiquitous in YS but they were a first for me), white pelicans, bald eagles, and literally thousands of bison. And because it was a two-day tour, staying the night in Cooke City, MT -- I stayed in a clean, basic cabin at a local motel included in trip price along with all meals -- we were able to cover lots of ground. Some of the most beautiful places we visited were off the beaten path and I would never have known to have taken those routes without a guide. But the thing I appreciated the most was that my guide was very skilled at spotting wildlife. Whether it was a bear out on a mountain over a mile (maybe two) away, a mountain goat and kid in a cave near the northeast entrance to the park, or a coyote catching its breakfast near Jackson Lake, it was really impressive. Once my guide spotted an animal with his binoculars or scope, he would set up the scope with a phone-scope attachment so I could see the image clearly on his phone (i.e., a nice, large, flat surface) that could also take video and photos of the images. All of which he texted to me at the end of the trip. I really can't recommend this trip enough. Yes, lodging and meals were fairly basic (although I had a wonderful smoked trout dinner in Cooke City) and the tour is expensive, but I thought it was worth every penny for a once-in-a-lifetime, totally customizable experience.

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jackson Hole.
How much does 2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops cost?
+
Prices start at $2250 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jackson Hole usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops take?
+
Plan for about 36 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Jackson Hole is not rushed.
Is 2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Jackson Hole, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 36-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Jackson Hole can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Jackson Hole and add a light layer if any part of the 36-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2-Day Private Tour of Yellowstone National Park Lower & Upper Loops start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Jackson Hole within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Jackson Hole?
+
Jackson Hole is wildlife-first: sunrise safaris for moose, bison and bears in Grand Teton, Snake River floats, Yellowstone day trips and winter sleigh rides through the National Elk Refuge. Guide experience and optics quality separate the wildlife tours. On Outty we rank every Jackson Hole experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Snake River Scenic Float, 8 Hour Combination Snowshoe & Wildlife Viewing in Grand Teton National Park, Best of Jackson Hole Wildlife Private Safari Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Jackson Hole?
+
June to September for hiking and floats, December to March for snow. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Jackson Hole?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
