Expect each tour to take a full day, regardless of where you’re headed. Most tours meet and/or leave around 8:00am and return around 5:00pm, but times can vary.
-
Sunscreen (even in the winter), your camera, binoculars, sunglasses, a water bottle and possibly some light snacks. Purchasing boxed lunches for your party is also 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.
