Yellowstone Hiking Guides safely leads hiking groups into the Lamar Valley on a wildlife viewing day hike tour.
Our guides are experts and fun is a top priority. Regularly, we spot wolves, bears, and other rare wildlife from the trail in the backcountry of Yellowstone.
Our tours are off the beaten path, traveling on bison trails for the majority of the hike. Most tour providers in Yellowstone spend the majority of the day on the road, or very close to the road. Our guides take you into the backcountry for unique views of the Lamar Valley that you cannot see from the roadway.
Frequently, our guests tell us that they could not do this hike on their own. We also hear feedback stating this is the best part of our guest's vacation to Yellowstone.

The Guide (Joshua) was very knowledgeable of Yellowstone and super accommodating to everyone on the hike. He pointed out indigenous plants/trees and showcased various animal artifacts found in the park. Loved seeing the animals from a safe distance. Would recommend to anyone new to the park who enjoys a leisurely 6 mile hike.

We had a great time! We saw some wildlife and a lot of beautiful scenery. We had a great lunch that included a delicious sandwich on locally sourced bread and lots of other treats. Our guide found the perfect lunch sight by the river. Karly was a great guide! She was very knowledgeable about Yellowstone and took good care of everyone in the group. Her energy and enthusiasm was contagious! This will always be a great memory for us!

We did this safari hike with Austin our tour guide. He was super friendly, knowledgable and helped us to see incredible herds of bison much closer than we would have otherwise been able to. The views were amazing and even though the weather was wet it just made the landscape more magical. Thank you Austin and Kim

Josh was an excellent tour guide. He has so much information about Yellowstone and presented that information at the appropriate times. He made sure we were all engaged and comfortable. We highly recommend this tour.

Had a great time with Karly (with a K!). Although we didn’t see quite as many animals as we might have hoped for, Karly’s infectious enthusiasm made it a great time.

Karlie was so fun and knowledgeable! She was attentive to our groups’ needs. We saw bison, prong horned sheep, a wolf, many birds and learned so much about Yellowstone and the Lamar Valley. Packed a great lunch.

Our guide, Karlie @ Yellowstone Hiking Guides was awesome! We had as great hike, learned a lot, and she took great care of us, whether with food or stories or equipment.
She went above and beyond when one of us left our poles behind and she ran them to our hotel (which she remembered).
We would do this tour all over again.

Was a wonderful hiking excursion, and our guide was wonderful. I took my 15 year old daughter and neither of us do much hiking. If you are able to hike 7-8 mostly flat miles I highly recommend a tour like this through the Lamar Valley over the bus tours that never leave the road.
