What travelers are saying

"Onze reis naar Zuid-Afrika met Swiss via Zwitserland werd geannuleerd. We stonden met onze 6 kinderen in Brussel en hoorden dat het vliegtuig niet zou vertrekken. We proberen nu al vanaf september een claim in te dienen bij Swiss, maar krijgen van Gate1 niet het originele boekingsbewijs van Swiss. Iets wat Swiss wel eist voor we kunnen claimen. We worden van het kastje naar de muur gestuurd. Ook is Gate1 al maanden telefonisch niet bereikbaar. Dus mijn advies: niet boeken via Gate1."

"Absolutely amazing two week trip to Mexico. Phoebe was very knowledgeable and helped us plan a fabulous itinerary. The hotels she'd recommended were perfect and in excellent locations. Our guides were helpful, friendly and spoke excellent English and when we contacted the Mexico office to squeeze in another excursion, they were responsive and immediately organised everything. All round brilliant customer service and Mexico was the most interesting and beautiful place to visit! Thank you!"

What travelers are saying

"When I signed up for the Wonders of Costa Rica at a slower pace. The hotel listed in the itinerary for day 8&9 was a 4 star hotel on the beach called the Punta Leona. I'm not sure when but Road Scholar changed the Punta Leona hotel for the 3 star Villa Lapis Jungle hotel. I was shocked when we drove up to this dump. Others in the group wanted to leave and find another hotel. I had black bugs under that shower mat and the shower did not drain, Spiders on the wall and roaches coming out of the cracked in the bathroom. The bed was a thin mattress on a board and was hard as a rock. The food they put out was covered with a wrap but 15 minutes after the plastic wrap was removed it was covered with fruit flies. I passed on the open food bowls. The walls were real thin and the neighbors were real noisy until 11:30 pm. Others in the group complained about the late night noise, spiders and toilet seat being broken. I'm not sure where this place gets 3 stars. After I saw the roaches, I give it a 1 star. Road Scholar put us up in beautiful hotels and then they take us here. You can do better than this Road Scholar. The end the story, Road Scholar customer service called me about my concern and said they have never used the Punta Leona, (I sent her my itinerary that said PUNTA LEONA). She also said they haven't had any complaints about this Villa Lapis dump. After her call, I'm not sure if I'll ever travel with Road Scholar again. Enough said...."

Yellowstone National Park Tour Selection Trips

  •  Yellowstone National Park spans nearly 3,500 square miles of land. Because of its vast size, it’s best to choose a tour that lasts at least three or four days so you can make sure to see all the top attractions.
  • The park is busiest in the summer months. To avoid the crowds, pick travel dates for late spring or early fall.
  • When booking a tour, you’ll want to know where to stay in Yellowstone. There are a few different lodging options at the park: cabins, hotel style and camping. Depending on your style of travel, make sure to find a tour that accommodates your lodging preferences.

Additional details

What to Wear for Yellowstone Weather

Yellowstone in Summer

During Yellowstone summer tours, you should bring comfortable outdoor clothing that you can easily layer and remove. Because Yellowstone National Park sits a mile above sea level on average, you should expect cold nights, no matter the season. Be sure to bring a warm jacket or a fleece, and a rain jacket -- Yellowstone weather can be unpredictable!

If you plan to swim in one of the park's countless rivers, hot springs, or go whitewater rafting, consider bringing water shoes. The rivers are rocky and can be uncomfortable to walk on barefoot. Otherwise, make sure to bring comfortable, closed-toe shoes for any hiking you may do.

Yellowstone in Winter

If you are traveling to Yellowstone in the winter, anticipate severe and colder weather. This means bringing a heavy waterproof jacket and wearing wool or other insulated clothing underneath. If you are planning to do any snow sports, dress appropriately and wear synthetic, fast-drying material as your first layer. This way, if you sweat, the clothing will dry quickly and you will stay warm.

Because of the reflective qualities of the snow, also bring a pair of sunglasses. Make sure to bring along a set of gloves and a hat too.

 

What to Bring for Yellowstone Tours

On a Yellowstone tour, it’s better to be prepared. Make sure to pack a good water bottle, binoculars, a small day backpack if you are hiking, and of course, your camera!  If you plan on leaving the main tourist areas in the park, or camp overnight, it’s also recommended that you bring a first aid kit and carry bear spray.

 

Recreation

Yellowstone has a variety of recreational activities. Some of the most popular include:

 

 

More than Meets the Eye

While the most obvious attractions of Yellowstone are physical, the park also has a rich and fascinating history. One of the benefits of taking a group Yellowstone tour is that your guide will be able to tell you, in detail, about the park. If you are interested in learning about the Native American tribes who battled and conducted pow wows in and around the National Park, consider taking a culture-based trip. Go see the Crazy Horse Memorial, tour a Native American art exposition, and even meet local tribe members.

Guided Yellowstone tours often go outside the park to explore the history of the region. A historical tour will guarantee you the opportunity to learn about it. For example, visit old Wild West towns and learn about important figures like Buffalo Bill and Calamity Jane, or take a short drive to see the infamous Mount Rushmore.

 

How safe is Yellowstone?

Many visitors to Yellowstone are alarmed when they first read that bear spray is recommended within the park. Despite this recommendation, the probability of a bear attack is very low -- many more visitors have been injured trying to get close to the geysers than by all interactions with wildlife combined!

With that being said, Yellowstone is an uncontrolled environment. In order to remain safe, keep to your common sense, properly dispose of all of your garbage (especially if camping), and do not feed or harass the animals.
