Liam and his team did an amazing job on our tour! We saw an Osprey and her chicks, a herd of Bison and their babies. We also saw Brno, the male Grizzly. Then we had a great picnic and then saw a female Grizzly and her 2 cubs. On the way back we saw a herd of Elk. This is our second year booking them and will definitely do it again next year, these guys are awesome and very knowledgeable! Kari and Matt Texas
Kari and Matt, That was great tour: Right down to there being no mosquitoes by the lake to ruin your charcuterie board picnic! We will be glad to have you back next year. As we said changing it up to September when the elk are bugling, the bears are feasting on berries and the fall colors coming in would be a great plan. I'm not sure we can repeat a 2 grizzly sightings tour at the end of July again. Cheers Liam
Our guide Liam was very knowledgeable and our kids loved seeing all the animals. Would definitely recommend!
Thanks Scott, I had fun with you and your family and chatting about the tourism business. Sorry, we missed the grizzly, but I hope the close encounter with the road-side elk was equally impactful for the kids. Cheers Liam Cheers Liam
Superb. Mikki is excellent, knowledgeable and fun.
Thanks for taking the time to review us so long after the tour Christa. I hope that means you had a full and enjoyable remainder of your vacation. Cheers Liam
We had an amazing time. My main wish was to see a bear and we saw one within eight feet of us. We also got to see lots of elk, deer and birds. We saw one moose as well. The guide was super nice and knowledgeable. She answered all our questions about wildlife patiently. She was also funny.
I'm glad we could find you and your family a bear. It is by no means guaranteed, but we are happy to focus on bear areas if requested. Just to clarify for other readers, you were in the vehicle and the bear came close by. I would not like people to think that is the norm with bear sightings. We try and maintain a safe, respectful distance from all wildlife, which is 100 yards from bears and wolves, but sometimes when you are in a vehicle on a crowded, narrow, forested road the animal will decide to pass close to you. Thanks for appreciating your good fortune, being calm, quiet and letting the bear just go about its foraging.
Great experience! Brendan was our tour guide for the morning. He was very knowledgeable, and knew right where to go for the best spots! We saw Elk, Bison, Moose, and a Bald Eagle! We saw some great overlook sites too! Our family loved the experience. Brendan was also kind and understanding given my knee problems, and went slow and was very kind about it. 10/10 would recommend!
Thanks Leslie, I'll pass this onto Brendan. That was a good haul of sightings. The moose calf was definitely worth the short walk. Safe travels home.
Our Guide did a great job finding wild life. He was very knowledgeable about the area geography, history and the wildlife. We were able to see Bison, Moose, Elk, Deer, Pronghorn, Coyotes, Otters etc. We had a great time. Highly recommend Mikki.
Thanks Lino, I glad you got to see so much. I hope the otters put on a playful show. I'll pass your compliments on to Mikki. Cheers Liam
Mikki is an amazing tour guide. Extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, Teton area, and spotted awesome animals for us to see!
Thanks Meg. I'll pass this on to Mikki. I'm glad you had a great time.
We thoroughly enjoyed our guide, Rachel. She was the right mix of knowledge, fun and enthusiasm. We saw moose, black and grizzly bear, antelope, buffalo. It was such a fun excursion. Highly recommend!
Thanks Nicole, I'll pass this onto Rachel. She said it was a standout tour in terms of the wildlife you saw. I'm glad you had a great time.
Great time searching for moose, bears and other wildlife. Our guide Liam was very knowledgable and accomodting!
Thanks Leigh Ann, I'm glad the bear showed up at the end. I hope the senior photos are a hit!
We had a fantastic experience with Guides of Jackson Hole, and our guide, Liam, was absolutely outstanding. As a travel agency owner, I spent a lot of time evaluating which guide company to select and Guides of Jackson Hole provided an excellent experience. From the moment our tour began, it was clear that Liam had an incredible depth of knowledge about the area and a genuine passion for what he does. He shared so much about the wildlife, landscape, history, and beauty of Jackson Hole in a way that was engaging, thoughtful, and easy for our whole family to enjoy. He took his time pointing out animals, helping us understand what we were seeing, and making sure we didn’t miss the details that make Grand Teton Park so special. We saw a variety of wildlife and learned even more than we expected. Liam’s enthusiasm, patience, and expertise made the experience truly memorable. You can tell he loves this area and loves sharing it with others. We left with a deeper appreciation for Grand Teton National Park because of him. I would highly recommend Guides of Jackson Hole to anyone wanting a meaningful, well-guided, and unforgettable experience in this incredible part of the country.
Thanks Nanci as a fellow travel professional your compliments are even more meaningful. We look forward to providing your clients with a similarly great experience in the future. Cheers Liam
