Traverse four states and three legendary national parks on an 8-day tour that showcases the dramatic peaks of Grand Teton, Yellowstone’s steaming geysers, and Glacier National Park’s ancient icefields. Discover vivid landscapes, wildlife, and Western culture, all supported by thoughtful logistics and expert guides.
Imagine waking up to the jagged silhouette of the Grand Tetons piercing a clear Wyoming sky, the morning breeze teasing the lodge curtains as you prepare for a day of discovery. This 8-day guided tour stretches across four states—Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana—unfolding some of the most iconic landscapes of the American West. From the granite spires of Grand Teton National Park, where mule deer and moose wander beneath towering peaks, to the simmering thermal wonders of Yellowstone, each day presents a new facet of wilderness shaped by fire and ice.
