Sleigh bells ring, are you listening? In the silent serenity of winter, you’ll also hear the howl of the coyote, the scream of the bald eagle, and the distinct crunch of elk hooves on the fallen snow. It’s a little-known secret that one of the coolest times of year to see the wonders of Yellowstone is when its golden hues turn to glistening white. Fewer crowds of people are replaced with bigger herds of bison while the favorite modes of transportation become snowcoaches, skis, and snowshoes. Get ready to gush as you see the steaming spurts of Old Faithful, the thundering Lower Falls, and the wildlife-filled Lamar Valley in a totally different light. This Yellowstone vacation takes you to the winter wonderlands of Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho where additional highlights include traveling through the peaks of the Grand Tetons and a sleigh ride through Jackson’s National Elk Refuge. Jingle all the way.

Day 1 - ARRIVE IN JACKSON, WYOMING
Welcome to the "Wild West" town of Jackson   At 6 pm, meet with your travel companions for a welcome drink. Your Tour Director will prepare you for your upcoming adventure.
Day 2 - JACKSON-GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK-YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK
Sleigh Bells Ring! Your day begins in the nearby National Elk Refuge with a fun and exhilarating included sleigh ride excursion. You'll depart Jackson and travel through Grand Teton National Park, where some of the majestic peaks soar beyond 13,000 feet. At Flagg Ranch, board a snowcoach and begin your journey through Yellowstone National Park, the world's first national park. Along the way, marvel at the West Thumb Geyser Basin on the shores of Lake Yellowstone, the Continental Divide, and Shoshone Point Overlook before arriving at the Old Faithful Snow Lodge for a relaxing 2-night stay. (B,D) LOCAL FAVOURITE EPIC RIDE As many as 10,000 elk congregate here each winter, the largest concentration of wintering elk in the world. Your sleigh will travel among these magnificent creatures for a memorable up-close experience. Watch for a wealth of other wildlife in residence this time of year, including wolves, coyotes, moose, bison, trumpeter swans, hawks, and bald eagles.
Day 3 - YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK
America's First National Park   Wake up this morning to the fresh, crisp air of Yellowstone in the winter. After breakfast, enjoy a guided walking tour of the Upper Geyser Basin. The remainder of the day is at leisure, a perfect time to try a typical winter activity like snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. Later, relax with a warm drink by the crackling fire. (B,D)  TOUR HIGHLIGHT  NATURAL WONDERS Experience the otherworldly beauty of Yellowstone in winter with a guided walking tour of the Upper Geyser Basin. The greatest geothermal basin on Earth, this region also features the extraordinary sights of world-famous Old Faithful, which erupts with regularity throughout the day, as well as other less predictable geysers, including Castle, Daisy, Riverside, and Grand Geysers. An incredible and invigorating experience.
Day 4 - YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK
Geysers, Pots, and Falls Travel north through the park today by snowcoach, with stops to see the Lower Geyser Basin's famous Fountain Paint Pots-named for the reds, yellows, and browns of the mud. At the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, see the thundering Lower Falls which are nearly twice the height of Niagara (weather permitting). Have your cameras ready as winter is ideal for wildlife spotting in the bright reflective snow. Later, enjoy a box lunch while continuing to the northern part of the park for mesmerising Mammoth Hot Springs, where heat, water, limestone, and rock fractures have created a unique terrace feature. Overnight at historic Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel where relaxing in the Map Room with a glass of wine are among the activities you can enjoy. (B,L,D) TOUR HIGHLIGHT INTO THE WILD Yellowstone in winter offers wonderful opportunities to view breathtaking geological features as well as magnificent wildlife-from grizzlies and black bears, wolves, mountain lions, elk, bison, pronghorn, moose, and bighorn sheep. Capture the chance to spot a wealth of winged wildlife and birds of prey, including bald eagles soaring overhead.
Day 5 - YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK-WEST YELLOWSTONE, MONTANA
Wild by Nature This morning, join our excursion to Lamar Valley, the magical "Serengeti of North America." Next, we travel to Bozeman, Montana, before heading south to the town of West Yellowstone. With your free time this afternoon, consider visiting the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery centre to learn more about these intriguing predators as you encounter them up close. (B) LOCAL FAVOURITE WILD & WONDERFUL Situated in the northeast section of the park, Yellowstone's Lamar Valley carves a vast U-shaped valley from millions of years of glaciers during the last ice age. Here, you'll have the perfect vantage point to spot thrilling wildlife in their natural habitat. Watch for elk, bison, and wolves in this high-country paradise!
Day 6 - WEST YELLOWSTONE-JACKSON, WYOMING
The Peak of Perfection   After breakfast, board your motorcoach for a journey through Idaho. Get a different perspective of the Tetons as we travel along Idaho's western side edge of Yellowstone and the western slope of the Tetons for 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 adventure with a festive farewell dinner at a local restaurant. (B,D)  TOUR HIGHLIGHT  SPECTACULAR SIGHTS The Grand Teton Range is the youngest mountain range in the Rockies and some of the youngest peaks in the world. Mere youngsters, these jagged masterpieces born of earthquakes and glaciers just 2 million years ago. With eight peaks towering over 12,000 feet, the grandest of all is Grand Teton itself at over 13,700 feet. So treasured is this magnificent national park that three presidents (Coolidge, FDR, and Truman) all fiercely fought for more land to be protected and preserved in the 310,000-acre Grand Teton National Park enjoyed today.
