Worth the money - We had an awesome time with Brian. He was very knowledgeable and knew a lot about the park. He knew all the places where the animals have been spotted and took us there. We got to see 6 grizzlies all in the same place! It was such an amazing experience and we never would have gotten to see all the wild life on our own like we did with Brian.

Yellowstone wildlife - Had our family of 7 on a wildlife tour of Yellowstone with Tied to Nature. Our guide, Brian, was very knowledgeable about the park and its wildlife and has a calming and kind personality. He spent time teaching us about the different places we were passing through as we made it to our ultimate destination of Lamar Valley. We saw a ton of animals including elk, a grizzly bear, a black bear, a black wolf, plenty of bison, elk, sheep, osprey and a pair of bald eagles. What makes a trip like this enjoyable is that you can enjoy the scenery and knowledge of a professional who knows the park and where to look for animals. He also has spotting scopes and a phone connector to use for longer distance viewing/recording. Make sure you get some videos and pictures like that. They are way better than you will get with your phone or even a decent SLR. Final note. Brian suggested we follow him in to Madison Junction because we planned to go see more of the park after our tour ended. That saved us at least 45 min of driving back and forth to West Yellowstone and we were able to head down to see many of the thermal features in and around Old Faithful to wrap up our afternoon. Great trip - thanks Brian! Highly recommend.

Takes your experience to the next level!!! - Brian was so personable and we immediately felt like we were traveling with an old friend. He was very knowledgeable about the park and the history. Brian put us on all the animals we wanted to see. Many of these animals were well camouflaged in their environment and without his expertise we would not have known they were there. If you are wondering if it is worth the money, it absolutely is. I witnessed some other people on wildlife tours that were not getting the experience were and felt bad for them. We really lucked out choosing Tied to Nature. Made our trip so special. Thanks Brian!

Must Do Yellowstone Tour - Absolutely a must do tour! Our guides Jared and Scott were so knowledgeable about Yellowstone history and where to find bears, wolves, big horn sheep…etc…pretty much saw everything. Wouldn’t have known where or what to look for otherwise. A must do to truly appreciate this amazing natural resource.
