Our 3-Day Bear and Wolf Safari tours are offered in the spring, summer, and fall, and will focus on finding and observing black bears, grizzly bears, and wolves. These safaris allow for abundant opportunities with Yellowstone National Park’s most sought after species, from bears to bison, and from wolves to wapiti.

With the use of the binoculars and spotting scopes provided to you, we can unobtrusively observe authentic wild behaviors that unfold before us. Your professional naturalist guide is there to interpret the events taking place, and share their in-depth knowledge of these intimate experiences.
