If you’re looking for something a bit different, perhaps a Wild West vacation package would be just the sort of adventure your family is waiting for.

A typical package would include sightseeing in Jackson, Wyoming, a float trip and a chuck wagon dinner, a sightseeing tour of Yellowstone National Park, a visit to Buffalo Bill’s Historical Center and a Cody Rodeo. You might also consider a sightseeing trip to Little Bighorn Battlefield and museum, a visit to Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse Memorial, and a visit to Rapid City.

Here is a typical itinerary:

Day 1

Welcome to the all-Western town of Jackson.  Board a covered wagon and ride into beautiful Cache Creek Canyon for a Chuck Wagon Cookout and Wild West show.

Day 2

Today, you will set out on a river adventure in a comfortable raft that takes you beneath the towering peaks of the Grand Tetons.  Your experienced guide will point out the flora and fauna wildlife indigenous to the area.  In the afternoon, explore the quaint old town.

Day 3

Head north through Grand Teton National Park and on to Yellowstone National Park, established in 1872.  Here you will admire the famous Old Faithful Geyser that has been erupting consistently for more than 100 years. 

Take a scenic drive, stopping at Fountain Paint Pots, where you will see four of the main geothermal features of this area:  fumaroles, geysers, hot springs, and a bubbling mud pot.

 Rejoin the loop road to enjoy photo stops at Yellowstone River’s Lower Falls, which are almost twice as high as Niagara.
