From here, this tour plans its major walking stops at Midway Geyser Basin: Home to the Grand Prismatic Spring, the largest hot spring in Earth’s Western Hemisphere, and Excelsior Geyser, which has views into its deep cyan-tinted depths that belie its history as Yellowstone’s most violent, explosive geyser.

Twilight on the Firehole (2 hour tour)
The Firehole (or Fire Hole) was named by the mountain men of the early 19th Century. What they experienced then still inspires visitors today. Exploring the Firehole area during the later part of the day is especially appealing as evening is a "golden hour" in Yellowstone. The later-day light adds a dramatic hue to the landscape. And wildlife tends to be more active in early mornings and evenings. Allow us to introduce you to an evening in the valley of the Firehole.
