Four Seasons Resort and Residences along with Jackson Hole’s premier wildlife tour company, Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris, are excited to announce their new exclusive partnership. Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris will be heading up our enhanced wildlife safari adventures. The trips will be offered in both half and full day guided tours of the greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.

Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris has been delighting guests in Jackson Hole over the past decade with their intimate knowledge of the rugged landscape, otherwise known as the American Serengeti. This partnership will elevate our wildlife offerings to our Four Season’s guests.Cory Carlson, Director of Marketing, Four Seasons

Tours will be led by experienced naturalists; the half day (four hour) wildlife adventure offers guests the opportunity to safely and comfortably view magnificent wildlife in their natural and remote habitat. Travel in a luxury SUV complete with high end spotting scopes, binoculars and mid trip meals prepared by Four Seasons culinary team. Guest will learn about flora, fauna, geology and history of this significant ecosystem along with the viewing of elk, moose, mule deer, bison, bears, wolves, antelope, pronghorn, bighorn sheep, bald eagles, river otters, trumpeter swans, owls and other rare birds. Routes may be customized to guest’s interests.

Full day trips include traveling into Yellowstone and viewing secret waterfalls, geysers and other points of interest. Trips will travel north through Grand Teton National Park entering Yellowstone through the South Entrance. Then travel around the entire “lower loop” road visiting famous Yellowstone features like the Continental Divide, Old Faithful, Fountain Paint Pots, the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, Hayden Valley, Mud Volcano, Yellowstone Lake and much more. Wildlife will also be a priority. Knowledgeable guides will make frequent stops as opportunities for wildlife viewing present themselves. The route may vary depending on wildlife, group interest and road conditions.

Trips will begin this summer and offered year round, excluding Yellowstone in the winter, due to the closure of the park. All trips will be bookable through Four Seasons concierge.
