Vacation Overview
The only thing more impressive than Yellowstone in the summertime is Yellowstone in winter! Begin this spectacular escorted tour with a sleigh ride through the National Elk Refuge in Jackson, Wyoming, where as many as 10,000 elk congregate each winter—prime territory for wolves, eagles, and coyotes! Next, tour beautiful Grand Teton National Park before boarding a Bombardier Snocoach and entering Yellowstone National Park. Enjoy a guided walking tour of Yellowstone’s Upper Geyser Basin, the greatest geothermal basin on earth and home to Old Faithful. Continue via Snocoach to Mammoth Hot Springs, stopping along the way to see the famed Fountain Paint Pots and Gibbons Falls. View the thundering Upper and Lower Falls, which are nearly twice the height of Niagara, and keep your camera ready for bison, elk, bighorn sheep, deer, coyote, and gray wolves. Journey to Lamar Valley, known to the locals as the Serengeti of Yellowstone because of the wildlife that can be spotted here. Head to West Yellowstone, Montana, then motor through the western flanks of the Teton Range with views of the highest peak in the range—Grand Teton itself! Return to Jackson for free time and an overnight, the perfect end to a grand Yellowstone winter vacation!

Jackson–Yellowstone National Park. (Fri.) Begin your day with an included SLEIGH RIDE in Jackson’s National Elk Refuge. Here, as many as 10,000 elk congregate each winter. On occasion, we may be lucky enough to see wolves, eagles, trumpeter swans, and coyotes as well. We then depart for an escorted tour of GRAND TETON and YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARKS, where some of the majestic peaks ascend above 13,000 feet. At Flag Ranch, board a Bombardier SnoCoach and begin the journey through Yellowstone National Park. Highlights include West Thumb Geyser Basin, Lake Yellowstone, the Continental Divide, and Shoshone Point Overlook. Your journey ends at the Old Faithful Snow Lodge for a relaxing 2-night stay. (B,D)

Day 3:
Yellowstone Sightseeing. (Sat.) Wake up this morning to the crisp air of Yellowstone in the winter. After breakfast, enjoy a guided WALKING TOUR of the Upper Geyser Basin, the greatest geothermal basin on earth. Here you will view Old Faithful, along with many other geysers in the eruptive state. The remainder of the day is at leisure. Why not participate in a snowshoe excursion or cross-country skiing? Later, relax with a warm drink by the crackling fire. (B,D)

Day 4:
Yellowstone Sightseeing. (Sun.) Travel by Snocoach today to Mammoth Hot Springs. We’ll make stops to see the famous Fountain Paint Pots as well as Gibbon Falls. At the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone we’ll have our box lunches in a warming hut before proceeding to Upper Falls and thundering Lower Falls, which are nearly twice the height of Niagara. Have your cameras ready, as winter is the perfect time to spot animals such as bison, elk, moose, bighorn sheep, deer, and coyote. We overnight at Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel, where you can enjoy evening talks, ice skating, and outdoor hot tubs. (B,L,D)

Day 5:
Yellowstone National Park–West Yellowstone. (Mon.) This morning, join our excursion to LAMAR VALLEY. This magical place is known to the locals as the Serengeti of Yellowstone, the perfect place for spotting wildlife—especially the gray wolf.

With your free time this afternoon, why not visit the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center to learn about and gain a better appreciation of the grizzly bear and gray wolf? (B)

Day 6:
West Yellowstone–Jackson. (Tue.) After breakfast, board your motorcoach for a journey through Idaho and Utah. On the western side of the Tetons are breathtaking views of the highest peak on the range: Grand Teton itself, which rises to an elevation of 13,777 feet above sea level. Tonight, celebrate your journey with a festive farewell dinner at a local restaurant. (B,D)

Standard Offers and Specials provided by Globus Tours

Discount for young travelers

Share the pleasure of a Globus vacation with your children and grandchildren and take advantage of a 10-percent discount on the land-only price. For eligibility, children must be under 18 years of age on the departure date and must be accompanied by an adult. On escorted vacations we don’t accept children under eight years old because we have found that they are too young to enjoy these vacations.

Pay less for your second vacation

We charge you vacation price for your first vacation in 2008, but for every additional Globus vacation you take in the same year, you pay US$35 under list. Our vacations are designed and scheduled so you can combine them almost any way you want. It’s fun to play the add-a-vacation game yourself or talk to your travel agent.

Triple room reduction

On most Globus vacations you receive a reduction when three people travel together and share the same accommodations. Triple room reductions, when available, are listed on the itinerary pages. A word of caution: Triple rooms usually are no larger than twin rooms and the third bed, if there is one, is often a rollaway put in a twin-bedded room.

Avoid the single room supplement

We do not take reservations on a “share” basis because we have found that strangers rarely enjoy sharing a room for the duration of their vacation. Avoid the single room supplement by traveling with a friend. It’s less expensive and much more fun!
