Great Western Expeditions gave our family unforgettable experiences that will stay with us forever! Our wildlife tour in Jackson Hole and Grand Teton National Park was nothing short of extraordinary—truly a 5-star experience from beginning to end.
From the moment we set out, it was clear we were in expert hands. Our guide, Vinnie was phenomenal—deeply knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about the land and wildlife. He knew exactly where to go and when, making every sighting feel effortless and almost magical.
And the wildlife… absolutely incredible. We saw majestic bison roaming freely, elk grazing in the distance, and even a stunning moose sighting that felt like something out of a nature documentary. Watching bald eagles soar overhead was breathtaking, and spotting bighorn sheep perched along the mountainside was such a thrill. Even the smaller moments—like the adorable ground squirrels (whistle pigs!) popping up around us—added so much charm to the experience. Mule deer sightings rounded out what felt like a perfectly curated glimpse into the wild.
What made this tour stand out was how respectful and intentional everything felt. We were able to observe these animals in their natural habitat without ever feeling intrusive. The pace was relaxed and luxurious—plenty of time to take in the scenery, ask questions, and soak up every moment.
The Tetons themselves are simply spectacular, and pairing that scenery with such an abundance of wildlife made this an experience we’ll never forget. It felt elevated, seamless, and thoughtfully designed from start to finish.
Great Wildlife Expeditions served us with the best picnics. The food was delicious! No stone was left unturned! They even surprised my husband with a birthday cake for his 40th birthday!
If you’re visiting Jackson Hole, this is an absolute must. I would recommend it without hesitation—and would book it again in a heartbeat.
