Misleading tour itinerary with no agent to greet us and no Welcome Board. Experienced park ranger tour guide arrived end of Day 1. Only one city tour (Helena) with most hotels far from city center or not up to standard expected. Had to use Uber (not cheap) to visit Museum of the Rockies (Bozeman) and Door Dash for $30 pizza dinner in Helena on Labor Day as Double-Tree hotel and nearly all restaurants were closed. Yellowstone & Glacier Nat'l Park views were hazy from wildfires. Saw only a few bison, 2 elk, and no bear. Saw no animals on "Scenic" 2 hour boat "option" which was actually a pontoon raft sitting in cold water up to your ankles. Either option was pre-paid so hard to skip. Upon arrival, transfer vehicle had a huge horizontal cracked front windshield "to be fixed on Friday". What a way to start. Very memorable trip for all the wrong reasons. Just glad to go home.Barbara Brown

Joel Hoadley was excellent, excellent. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful, clear voice (easy to understand), interesting, took care of everyone (several seniors) and great to be with. Joel recognized my birthday and made the day special. Josh (bus driver) was excellent, excellent. He was an excellent driver (felt very safe), thoughtful, took care of everyone (several seniors) and great to be with.Hubert Stoy

We had a very knowledgeable, experienced and enthusiastic guide. Her knowledge of Yellowstone based on her work there gave us a very good insight into geology, animal life, forestry and the Park Service responsibilities. There were only a few tours that could be changed or eliminated. The "Gates of Heaven" boat ride was too long, too hot and too crowded. One other tour worth mentioning is the luncheon and information session given by a Native American woman. After reading about her family and their success we think it would have been so informative for her to talk about the family businesses - they own and run hotels and other accommodations on Glacier Lake. We'd like to learn about how they got started in business, what hurdles they had to overcome, etc.

Great tour, tour manager, driver, and travel mates. My best tour with Collette. Visiting the State Capital on a Sunday, the visit to the Cathedral and to St. Ignatius were perfect. Also the lunch and history lesson at the Camp ground. The barbecue dinner with the raft crew. And all the huckleberry ice cream. Just loved it!!

We were unaware that we were the maiden tour. There were a lot of "kinks" in the plans. Hotels were just ok, food was just ok. It was a little too slow for us.
