Private Yellowstone Geothermals & Hiking Tour

What makes a Private Yellowstone Geothermals & Hiking Tour special is that we can tailor the day to focus on what your group is most excited about seeing and exploring. We can explore the west side of Yellowstone Park at your pace, adding in longer hikes, focusing on wildlife or seeing off-the-beaten-path geo-thermals within the 2.2 million acres of Yellowstone.

Private tours are uniquely crafted and personal for you. They include longer hikes if desired, tasty local snacks, beverages and lunch. Choose from of one of the great park restaurants or a picnic lunch!

Hiking & Super Volcano Geo-thermals Tour (Mid May-October) – This fun tour day will focus on the west side of the Lower Loop road, exploring and experiencing Geysers, Mud pots, Hot springs and Fumaroles (gas vents). Yellowstone national park was created because of how unique to our planet these hot, steaming, bubbling thermal features are and that curious people can safely explore some of the 10,000 Yellowstone geo-thermals. Our guides will craft a day for all ages to experience and enjoy. Lunch will either be picnic-style or at the Historic Old Faithful Inn, built in 1904. We will witness the might of the Yellowstone Caldera, watch Old Faithful Geyser erupt, marvel at the intense colored Extremophiles and much more. This day can include longer hikes through geyser basins and other backcountry locations few have seen. Of course we will stop to enjoy wildlife viewing opportunities!

There are hundreds of miles of hiking opportunities in Yellowstone to explore more off-the-beaten track geothermal and wildlife locations. If you’re interested in doing longer backcountry hikes or several hikes during your tour day, then consider a specialized hiking tour. Hiking tours focus on exploring one side of the Lower Loop–either the west side Super Volcano & Geothermals OR the east side Wildlife & Waterfalls. These tours are great even if you’re not up for hiking but are interested in a slower pace and more in-depth exploration of Yellowstone attractions, or if you desire a shorter tour day.

Buffalo Roam Tours wowed this Jackson Hole Local! Our driver, Liam knew our group wanted a "bear day" and he granted our wish with a total of seven bears! The spotting scope we peered through brought the grizzlies up close -- from a safe distance, and he had many interesting facts about the creatures and the ability to answer our questions. Spending a day with Buffalo Roam Tours will no doubt be a highlight of the summer!

I researched and interviewed 9 guide companies before choosing Buffalo Roam. If you want a once in a lifetime experience, this is it! You won't just "see" Grand Teton and Yellowstone, you will learn about their history, geology, flora, fauna and people. Matt was great getting everything set up, and Al was a walking textbook on the tour. We did 4 days total and were never bored. We saw everything we wanted plus some. You really can't imagine all you will experience and learn with these amazing guides, and it's all stress free for you! Money and time very well spent.

This was absolutely the best part of our wonderful trip to Jackson hole. Matthew is so knowledgeable. We learned so much and saw big horn sheep, elk, moose and bison. We have memories that will last a lifetime. Hope to come back again and will definitely take another tour.

Our tour of Yellowstone was incredible — truly a bucket-list experience. Matt was our guide and he picked us up right at our hotel at Old Faithful. He was knowledgeable, great with kids, and kept us engaged all day. He tailored the day to best fit our kids and their interests. We saw unbelievable colorful geysers and hot springs. A highlight was the thermal gun Matt provided to have the kids take the temperatures of the geysers and hot springs. We had a picturesque picnic lunch and an ice cream stop along the way. We saw a ton of wildlife and pulled off at the stops to use binoculars to see them better! We never would have covered as much ground without Matt. He truly was worth every single penny and next trip we will absolutely be touring with him again. It’s the very best way to experience Yellowstone in a day!

We had a perfect day with Frank of Buffalo Roam Tours, exploring Yellowstone Park. There were 8 of us, including 4 kiddos from ages 7-11. The van was great, Frank was so knowledgeable, making the day fly by with his great narration and fun facts. He took us to off-the-beaten path landmarks within the park - so we skipped busy parking lots, lines, and lots of people. Felt like we had the perfect private tour. Time was spent enjoying the beauty of the park, rather than waiting in long lines for a photo opp. We had a lovely private picnic lunch by the water - it was a great time for our kids to stretch their legs. Would highly recommend Buffalo Roam Tours and Frank. Their communication leading up to our trip was excellent, as well. Will definitely rebook on our next trip to WY.

Matt from Buffalo Roam Tours Let us on a great tour of Grand Teton and Yellowstone. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and willing to share all of his knowledge. He also knows how to get around the park so we’ve saw way more in a couple of days with Matt than we would’ve ever been able to see on our own. Highly recommended.

We took the Private Yellowstone Lower Loop Tour with Buffalo Roam Tours and had a wonderful experience. Frank was our guide, he took us to the highlights, he definitely knew his way around the park and was very informative. Most of us had never been to Yellowstone, so this was an excellent way to maximize our day in the park. I highly recommend Buffalo Roam Tours.
