Explore Yellowstone and Grand Teton on a five-day small-group tour with wildlife viewing, horseback riding, and seasonal activities.

About this tour

Spend five days among the dramatic peaks, open valleys, and geothermal landscapes of Yellowstone and Grand Teton on a small-group journey designed for close-up encounters. Yellowstone 5-Day Small Group Tour pairs scenic drives with time to watch for bison, elk, bears, and other wildlife; binoculars are provided, though sightings are never guaranteed.

Ride horseback through the Yellowstone ecosystem for a taste of the American West, then enjoy the landscapes at a relaxed pace with a group of just 2–8 travelers. The tour includes four nights of standard hotel accommodation, snacks and water, and natural hot spring admission fees. Depending on the season and conditions, complimentary activities may include a Jenny Lake Boat Tour or Jackson Lake cruise. A West Yellowstone rodeo may also be available on scheduled dates in summer 2026. Seasonal activities can change with weather and trail conditions.

With the provider’s 2CanGo promise, departure is guaranteed once two guests book. Yellowstone 5-Day Small Group Tour also coordinates park entry for U.S. residents. Book early to secure a place and experience the wild scenery of Yellowstone and Grand Teton with a small group.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 3 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Salt Lake City
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.3. Top 27% in Salt Lake City means it ranks in the top 27% of tours in Salt Lake City by this score.
