Overview
If you only have a half day to explore the area, we invite you to join us on one of our family-friendly private sunset tours of the National Elk Refuge and Grand Teton National Park.
We design our tours to help you experience the most iconic wildlife, scenic places, and cultural attractions from the comfort and safety of one of our four-wheel-drive Chevy Suburbans or high-roofed Ford Transit Vans.
As you venture through Grand Teton National Park and travel along the eastern front of Tetons, the so-called mountains of the imagination, your guide will take you to the most picture-perfect spots to view the Range's major peaks, including The Grand, Mt. St. John, and Mt. Moran, as well as explain how earthquakes, glaciers, oceans, and volcanoes have sculpted the Range.
Seasonal wildlife may include bald eagles, bighorn sheep, bison, coyotes, elk, moose, red tail foxes, trumpeter swans, and wolves.
