Private VIP Tour of Grand Teton National Park: Jackson Hole Day Tour
Select participants and date
You step out of the vehicle before dawn and the Tetons are already at work: a serrated skyline hulking above a valley that smells like sage and cold river. The guide points uprange as colors bleed across granite faces and the Snake River, low and glassy, dares you to pick a reflection. Over six hours this private VIP tour threads these still moments into a single, attentive day—stops sculpted around light, wildlife and history.

Adventure Tips
Time for light
Book the tour for sunrise or late afternoon for the best reflections at Oxbow Bend and Schwabacher’s Landing.
Bring layers
Valley mornings are cold even in summer; pack a windproof midlayer and a warm hat for early stops.
Binoculars help
Wildlife is often at a distance—binoculars or a 300mm lens increase your chances of close-up views without disturbing animals.
Respect wildlife
Follow your guide’s distance guidance—do not approach moose, bison or bears; use zoom optics instead.
