Overview
Itinerary
Our 4-day escapade begins today! After meeting your Contiki team here at Jackson Hole, you'll take a drive to the first national park on our list… Here in Grand Teton, our first stop will be the majestic mountain range – checking out wildlife, pristine lakes, and spectacular mountain peaks. Keep your camera close too, because today you'll get to snap true geographical wonders like Oxbow Bend, Jackson Lake Dam & Jenny Lake. We'll bed down in Jackson Hole for the night, with plenty more wonder in store for us tomorrow. Stay: Antler Inn (or similar)
Today we're headed from Jackson Hole towards somewhere that might even be more spectacular (bold claim, but we back it).
Welcome to the world's first National Park: a majestic mountain wilderness, home to grizzly bears, buffalo and wolves too – as well as canyons, glaciers, waterfalls and volcanoes. Here we'll check out iconic landmarks like Old Faithful and the Grand Prismatic Hot Spring.
After a full day of oh-so-wholesome National Parks, we'll head back to our accommodation for the night. Didn't see everything you wanted? No sweat – we'll be back again in the morning. (B)
Rise and shine! We've got more Yellowstone adventures in store for today.(Lucky us.) We've got a full free day here in Yellowstone, giving you the chance to check out everything you missed yesterday. If you're on the lookout for some unmissable activities, you can join us as we check out mud volcanoes, hot springs, majestic viewpoints and so much more. Goodbye Yellowstone, you've been incredible! Next stop, back to Jackson Hole for a well-earned rest (B)
On your final day in Jackson Hole, you'll have the chance to go out with a bang. That's right, we're talking not one but two epic optional activities: horseback riding in Teton village, and white water rafting on the Snake River.
After that, you're free to make your way home or onwards to your next adventure. (We know which one we'd choose…) (B)
