We loved Lamar Valley. The bison traffic jams were amazing. These huge animals came right up to our car and travelled across the road in front and behind our vehicle. Excellent photo and video opportunities. Don't miss it!!

If you like to see animals in the nature that is your place. After tower junction, we drove towards the valley seeing bisons immediately. After a mile few of them were on the side of the road. After two miles we saw on the other side of the canyon an eagle birds nest (from the parking). We then met many bisons near the water but also crossing the road. We drove till the exit of the park and took an ice cream and enjoyed some gift shooed before to drive back and walk on the sourdough creek trail. We then went back on an early morning to even meet more bisons on the road and talk with some of the Wolfpack project learning about wolfs and their role in the park. While leaving we also saw a bear.

Lived up to the "America's Serengeti". fantastic. Note: no convenient food options so bring a snack and if time permits, the Log Cabin cafe in Silver Gate (just over the Montana border, 1 mile outside the NE entrance to Yellowstone) is fantastic. great portions at a fair price and friendly people.

Wow! What a valley! It was definitely worth the early 5:30am wake up to leave our campsite at Canyon to make our way over to Lamar to catch the morning animal activities. (For Yellowstone animal viewings, the early bird and late bird get the worm…er, best sightings.) Three of our five mornings in Yellowstone were spent here. Breakfast and coffee were made on the camp stove on-site, to facilitate the early hours arrival. Along with commercial wolf safari companies, we enjoyed viewing the wolves at Slough Creek. A sight scope with tripod is a must. My younger teens preferred breakfast in the valley proper, to enjoy the antics of the baby bison and bison herds. One morning we lucked out and spotted a family of badger (mom and two juveniles) on the gravel road to the Slough Creek trailhead. The highlight was encountering a different wolf pack on the road between Mt. Washburn and Tower Junction, which we likely would not have seen later in the day.

Audra was an outstanding and knowledgeable guide. She provided extensive information about the park and its wildlife. We were fortunate enough to see wolves and bears through a scope (this happens very rarely!). A wolf even ran in front of our car (this is also super rare). Additionally, we encountered numerous bison while driving through Lamar Valley, as well as elk, pronghorn, cranes, and ospreys. Besides the incredible tour, we were also treated to a delightful lunch and coffee. I would strongly recommend this tour to everyone!

We did an evening Wildlife Viewing Tour, unfortunately it poured down rain for an hour at least. At that point I was glad I wasn’t doing the driving. The spacious valley is incredibly beautiful and they say there are 4000 bison that make it home. I think we saw about 1/2 of them. Dawn and dusk are the best time to spot some wildlife and we spotted a few. We saw a Golden Eagle, a nest of Osprey where the male brought home a fish to feed the family, a lot of Bison, a small herd of Elk, Mule deer and Pronghorn. The elusive bear and wolf were not to be found. We visited the interesting Basalt Columns and Calcite Springs Overlook. The Lamar Valley is impressive and I am so happy that is part of the protected National Park.

The most breathtaking views in the world. The buffalo were amazing and so many!! We camped in West Yellowstone and drove all around Yellowstone Park. There was a nightly rodeo near the KOA Mountainside in West Yellowstone, that was a hoot! Saw many beautiful paint pots, geysers, Old Faithful. !Just thrilling. Saw elk, deer, buffalo, and coyotes.
