Connie and Brad
Our guide John was fantastic—knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely enthusiastic about Yellowstone. We saw a wolf, coyote, and herds of Bisons … and we were not tossed! He knew exactly where to go, shared interesting stories and facts throughout the day, and made the experience enjoyable for everyone. We saw and learned far more than we ever could have exploring on our own.

Great experience with a great guide
We have been planning to come to Yellowstone for years and finally booked a two day guided adventure. We knew some basics about the park but our guide made it worry free and allowed us to avoid all the tourists traps and construction delays along our Grand loop adventure. We would have still enjoyed the Park but our experience woulda have been half as great as it was. Our family loved having an experienced guide with us to lead us through the ins and outs of the park and made sure we hit all the must see areas. Also, if you wanna see animals in the Park .. John is your man .. he is knowledgeable and knows all the areas to hit that maximize your chances for spotting the most animals !! Nothing like seeing an apex predators in the wild … wolves, coyotes and bears. Of course nothing is guaranteed, but John is your best bet for getting you the best experience in the Park ( we hit 2 outta 3 apex predators) .. FIVE STARS John !! thanks again our family will cherish these memories for a lifetime!

Very memorable tour with a fantastic tour guide
We experienced a very memorable 2-day tour of Teton Grand and Yellowstone Nat'l Park. Our tour guide, Shane, was a fantastic guide who gave us plenty of information about the places we saw, has a good sense of humor which we enjoyed, has good driving skills and a true professional and very knowledgeable tour guide. Thank you Shane for a very memorable tour.

An Incredible 2-Day Yellowstone Experience with Joe!
Our 2-day Yellowstone tour with Joe was absolutely incredible! I truly can’t imagine having a better tour guide. Joe was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire experience so enjoyable for our family. He made sure we saw it all while also making sure we were comfortable, safe, and having an amazing time throughout the entire two days. If you’re considering a Yellowstone tour, I highly recommend doing the 2-day tour. It really is the way to go—you get to experience so much of the park without feeling rushed, and Joe made sure we didn’t miss a thing. Teton Floats is also an incredibly customer-service-focused company. From start to finish, it was clear that they genuinely care about their customers and want you to have the best possible experience. We had an amazing time and would do this tour again in a heartbeat! If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and truly exceptional guide, ask for Joe—you won’t be disappointed!

Why this scores 84
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2 Day Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jackson.
How much does 2 Day Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration cost?
+
Prices start at $650 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jackson 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 Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration take?
+
Plan for about 48 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 is not rushed.
Is 2 Day Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 234 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Jackson, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Day Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 Day Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Day Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration?
+
Around 82 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 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 and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Day Yellowstone National Park Upper and Lower Loop Exploration 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 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?
+
On Outty we rank every Jackson experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Whitewater Rafting in Jackson Hole : Family Standard Raft, Sunrise 4-Hour Grand Teton Wildlife Adventure, Snake River Scenic Float Trip with Teton Views in Jackson Hole. 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?
+
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?
+
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.
