Explore Yellowstone by snow coach, soak in natural hot springs, and enjoy a four-day winter adventure with a small group and local guide.

About this tour

Trade busy summer trails for the hush of a Yellowstone winter on this four-day small-group adventure. With an experienced local guide and a group of 2–8 guests, explore snowy park landscapes by snow coach, then step outside for easy walks or snowshoe outings near celebrated sights.

The itinerary pairs Yellowstone’s winter scenery with a soothing soak in naturally fed hot springs and a sleigh ride through the National Elk Refuge. Visit areas around Old Faithful and Fountain Paint Pots, and keep watch for elk, bison, mule deer, and other wildlife. The tour also offers opportunities to explore Grand Teton and Antelope Island, take photographs, and enjoy quieter views away from the crowds. Lunch, snacks, water, hand warmers, three nights of standard hotel accommodation, and listed park and hot spring fees are included. A departure is guaranteed once two guests book.

Yellowstone winter tour plans can shift with weather, road conditions, or flight schedules, and wildlife sightings are never guaranteed. Arrive at Salt Lake City Airport before 9:00 AM for pickup. Choose this Yellowstone winter tour for a guided mix of snowy scenery, outdoor discovery, and a restorative hot spring stop.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.20 from 5 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 6.8.
