Two ways of seeing the Park. Take a bus tour (Buffalo Bus Touring Co) where the guide gives you an excellent in depth description of the history and geography of the Park while stopping at all the sight seeing high points.
OR... self drive. Our suggestion is to do both. Southern loop take bus tour. To see rest of Park self drive. We suggest you download to your cell phone the app: Gypsy Guide to Yellowstone Park. It will point out and describe every approaching site of interest.
Since there isn't enough room here to adequately describe what we would recommend you see, we will send you a detailed description of what we think you should put on your agenda of must see stops in the park. Our guide will be sent to you a week or two before your arrival at our cabin. So be sure to look for it.
