What travelers are saying
- MikeJennyQOnalaska, WI985 contributionsA must see for any outdoors folks. Nice hike from falls overlook to second point farther from road if you wish rather than driving both pointsWritten January 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- cmr352Vancouver, WA100 contributionsWe 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!!Written January 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- MikeJennyQOnalaska, WI985 contributionsGreat walk through Geyser basin. Springs is remarkable and mid afternoon reflections made great pictures.

- saalfeldk68Independence, KY185 contributionsThis is one of my favorite parks to visit. It has everything. There’s a beautiful waterfall, hot springs, geysers and animals everywhere.Written March 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- shazaca33 contributionsSeeing Old Faithful was an amazing experience for our family. It is a natural phenomenon that is worth seeing in person. The bison tracks nearby make it even more exciting.Written March 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- seema60Toronto, Canada947 contributionsWe drove to this viewpoint which was painted in the past by artists to attract visitors to Yellowstone. It was a beautiful viewpoint.Written September 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- MikeJennyQOnalaska, WI985 contributionsNothing like it any where else on earth. Fall is a nice time togo not as busy or hot. Multiple Geysers and the predictable Old Faithful. Lodge and guest areas have a lot of room if showers waiting for eruption. Large parking areaWritten January 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- UtsavAhmedabad, India2 contributionsIt is a good time to visit, but there is only one road open which is from Gardiner to North East entrance. You visit Mammoth Hotsprings and Lamar Valley. The snow coach and snow mobile starts after 15 December 2023.
Its is good time to visit. Less crowded.Written December 14, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We also enjoyed going to the hotel nearby for buying some souvenirs. It’s a worthwhile drive if you are staying longer than two daysWritten September 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MindyLouisville, KY39 contributionsI hiked down to the brink of the lower falls and it was amazing!!! I felt so close to the rushing water and the volume going past was impressive. I’m sure it’s nice from an overlook, but if you want the full effect, take the trail down. The trail is EXTREMELY steep so it’s switchback after switchback after switchback. I wouldn’t recommend doing it unless you’re physically in decent shape. I continued on the North Rim trail and hiked up past Crystal Falls and on to the Upper Falls. I didn’t encounter one single person and the views were spectacular, but when I got to the overlooks, they were packedWritten December 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MikeJennyQOnalaska, WI985 contributionsGreat place for the long lenses. Bear activity was high late in summer fall and near the hot springs along the road a =n active grizzly revisiting a carcass for a week. Safe distance from the road and across the river. A lot of photographers but even amateurs could see and get a photo.. Buffalo and elk with bugling. Wolves are seen though we missed themWritten December 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- kirbykirbyJunction City, KS75 contributionsIf you are driving your own vehicle make sure you fill out before you go in the park. The gas prices are stupid ridiculous. If you are driving a SUV, get an ice cooler and fill it up with sandwich stuff, water, and ice. Food and drinks are once again ridiculous priced. Yes, it is a national park.
The best part since you are still reading this. Drive slow, take everything in. You will be able to see some amazing sights. If you are looking for the animals, get up early (0600-0700). This is when the ice cooler comes in at. You can eat when you want and where you want.
When you are driving and you see people with some big cameras, there are animals. Do not get too close like closer than 100 yards, they will charge you and some really bad things can happen to you. Bison are really great are tossing tourists up in the air and they come with their own can openers. They will mess up a car and do it quick. Bears if mama has cubs give lots of space. They are wild and only protecting themselves and their family.
Have a phone charger and plug for the vehicle. I know it sounds stupid but it does happen.
If you go hiking, buy the bear spray. Look at it as an insurance policy. Watch where you walk, there are rattlesnakes. They do not have to coil to strike.Written October 16, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
