Yellowstone Lower Loop VIP Full-Day Private Tour with Lunch
Pickup included
Itinerary
Yellowstone National Park
Pass by
All Stops are subject to change based on conditions and guides discretion.
Yellowstone features dramatic canyons, alpine rivers, lush forests, hot springs and gushing geysers, including its most famous, Old Faithful.
Firehole Canyon Drive
Pass by
Firehole Canyon Drive is a 2-mile, one-way road off the Grand Loop south of Madison. The drive has a waterfall overlook and swimming area.
Fountain Paint Pot
45 min
Along Fountain Paint Pot Trail you will see various hydrothermal features that are expressions of Yellowstone’s still active volcano. Within this geologic system, each type of thermal feature is represented. They can be grouped into two general categories—those with a great deal of water (hot springs and geysers) and those with limited water (mudpots and fumaroles). Despite their structural similarities, no two features are exactly alike.
Grand Prismatic Spring
45 min
Grand Prismatic Spring is located in the Midway Geyser Basin. It has the distinction of being the park's largest hot spring. It measures approximately 370 feet (112.8 m) in diameter and is over 121 feet (37 m ) deep. A description of this spring by fur trapper Osborne Russell in 1839 also makes it the earliest described thermal feature in Yellowstone that is definitely identifiable.
Old Faithful
60 min
Old Faithful is located in Yellowstone’s Upper Geyser Basin in the southwest section of the park. The geyser-viewing area is the most accessible and visitor-friendly in the park with bench seating, a large parking lot, and a ranger station that tracks the time, height and length of an eruption to predict the next eruption.
Hayden Valley
Pass by
Hayden Valley is a large, sub-alpine valley in Yellowstone National Park straddling the Yellowstone River between Yellowstone Falls and Yellowstone Lake. The valley floor along the river is an ancient lake bed from a time when Yellowstone Lake was much larger.
During the drive through Hayden Valley, you will have the chance to see Bison, Elk, Wolves, Grizzly Bears, River Otters and many other animals.
Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone
Admission not included45 min
The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River expresses the park's complex geologic history in dramatic colors and shapes. Puffs of steam mark hydrothermal features in the canyon's walls. The Upper and Lower Falls of the Yellowstone River add to the grandeur of the unique natural treasure.
Experience the canyon from a variety of overlooks, at different times of day, and at different seasons. A number of trails and walkways wind along the rims and down partway into the canyon.
Artists Paintpots
45 min
The Artists’ Paintpots Trail, a 1.1-mile lollipop loop, offers a chance to see some of Yellowstone’s most famous features in a short period of time. The trail covers a mixture of dirt and boardwalk with 125 feet of elevation gain.

Yellowstone
Yellowstone is an amazing place to see. Seeing all the wildlife is great to experience, but the geological wonders are amazing.
Operator response
Thank you for sharing! Yellowstone truly is one of a kind. The wildlife is incredible, but the park’s geothermal and geological wonders are just as unforgettable. We’re so glad you had the opportunity to experience it!

Good, But Some Improvements Needed
The weather was brutal…super hot…but of course, no one cn control that. Our guide, Alex, was super cool, knowledgable, courteous and overall…just great with a multigenerational group with really different walking abilities, interests, etc. The suggestions I have pertain to issues between the guide service and the booking company. The communication I had with the booking service was not good. I literally had a “confirmation” from the booking service (is that Viator?…I don’t know know) that our group would be picked up at West Yellowstone the day of the tour when I had another confirmation the day before that we’d be picked up at Tower Junction, WY. That was not cool and caused some anxiety all the way around. Also, I’d recommend at least an option for some upgraded lunch choices. That would cost more, but it would have been a nice option. The park is great. Our guide was really great. Work on the interface between Viator and the guide service.
Operator response
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re so glad to hear Alex took great care of your group and was able to accommodate everyone’s different interests and abilities, especially on such a hot day.
We’re sorry to hear there was confusion regarding your pickup location. We always reach out earlier in the week before your tour to confirm all of the details we’ve received, including the pickup location, so we can ensure everything is accurate and avoid any last minute surprises. Our goal is never to create anxiety but to take it away by verifying those details before your tour. Unfortunately, when bookings are made through third party platforms, there can occasionally be communication discrepancies outside of our control, but we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
We also appreciate your suggestion regarding lunch upgrades. As a small business operating in a remote community, we’re limited in the options available to us, but we’re always looking for ways to improve where we can.
Thank you again for your thoughtful feedback. We’re grateful you chose to tour with us, and we’re especially happy to hear Alex helped make your day in Yellowstone a memorable one.

Fun! Intimate day of sightseeing conversation and learning about Yellowstone
Beautiful day exploring Yellowstone with a very knowledgeable and personable guide. The group and guide contacted us in the days before the trip to confirm lunch and sightseeing preferences and picked us up, dropped us off right from our hotel. We loved our day seeing Yellowstone with this guide. He was knowledgeable and kept us on a very accurate schedule to see the most sights by the end of the day. He accommodated all of our requests and tailored the day to our family.

Yellowstone Tour Far Exceeded our Expectations!!!
Jack, at Casanova Tours was our private tour guide for the four of us. We had not been to Yellowstone before. Jack was amazing and fun with his great knowledge and first-hand experience. He was very flexible in showing us the things we wanted to see most. We amazingly saw 3 Grizzly bears at a reasonable distance and a lot of other wildlife, as well as the many sights of the park. Our tour actually went overtime as Jack is so committed to his customers having a great day and experience. This tour way exceeded our expectations. Even the owner of Casanova Tours, Tauni, was exceedingly friendly and great to talk with! We very highly recommend this company!!!!!
