FAQ

Our West Yellowstone snowcoaches are the same buses we use for our summer tours, mounted on oversized low-pressure tires. These tires allow our coaches to travel smoothly over the snow, while keeping you higher up for better viewing.

-
Purchasing boxed lunches for your party is highly recommended for all tours, particularly during the winter months when food service inside the Park is extremely limited, but during the summer months as well since summer crowds can result in long wait times for food service. Boxed lunches can be reserved directly through Yellowstone Vacation Tours when you call in to book your tour, but must be ordered at least 24 hours in advance so they can be ready for pick-up on the morning of your tour.
-
Our snowcoaches do have heaters, but please come dressed for winter weather. We make several stops for you to get out and take pictures or take a short walk around, so you’ll be grateful to be dressed warmly during your time off the bus. We suggest dressing in layers so you can regulate your own personal temperature.
