  Our family of six (parents and two young adult couples) spent three different days with Cara on a full-day wildlife tour, a half-day snowshoe tour, and a half-day cross-country ski... read more tour. Having her as our guide made all the difference in our experience of Yellowstone. We had different levels of knowledge about the park, skills with the activities, etc., and she seamlessly adjusted herself to each person. She took us to the right spots, quickly set up and took down scopes, answered our many questions with knowledge and good humor, provided hot drinks and delicious snacks, helped us with rental equipment, was a kind and patient teacher, etc. Honestly, we cannot say enough good about Cara and highly recommend using her as a guide.

  Cara guided my girlfriend and me around Yellowstone National Park and its surrounding areas for three days in November 2020, and it was exceptional. Her knowledge of the region and... read more understanding of animal behavior really stood out.

Activities were done by vehicle and on foot. We watched a plethora of wildlife, including bison, elk, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, moose, coyotes, wolves, and foxes, among others. She was immensely valuable for being able to easily spot animals in far-away valleys or atop snowy peaks that I otherwise would've missed on my own.

My only regret is not requesting her guiding services for more days.

  We spent 10 days in and around Yellowstone, and we both agree that our day spent with Mike from In Our Nature was the highlight of the trip. We were... read more fortunate to see bear, wolf, moose, and bison! Mike was easy going and welcoming, and so kind to wait for us early in the morning when we arrived late. He was knowledgeable about the history and ecology of the area - we learned a ton! Ask him about the petrified tree! This tour taught us how to better spot wildlife and we’d recommend it early during your trip as it benefitted us long after.

  Nancy was an excellent guide and was very knowledgeable about the birds in the area. We saw so many new birds.would definitely r

  It was a pleasure setting up my tour with Cara. She gave tips not just on the snowshoe excursion but my visit in general.

I went out with... read more Mike for two days, to Tower and Mammoth Hot Springs. Both snowshoe trips were very enjoyable. Mike has an incredible depth of knowledge about the geology and the wildlife of Yellowstone.

I did a third day on my own, on Blacktail (stunning) but would not have wanted to go out on my own prior to an orientation from Mike.

You can tell that these folks really want you to have a good experience.

The only downside is that cross country skiing looks like a hell of a lot of fun. Wish I knew how to do it.

  A guided tour is the way to go when visiting Yellowstone. You can choose from many different tours depending on what you want to see or do! In Our... read more Nature Guiding Services is top notch and extremely knowledgeable about nature, the animals, and the history of Yellowstone. It was so awesome that I went on excursions with them in July and October 2020, and will do it again the next time I am in the area. I learned so much knowledge about the different animals, conservation efforts, the wolves, birds, the Bison, and the views are too die for. I am a Registered Nurse, and hated Biology when I was in school but Cara made me wish I was back in school and making straight A’s in Biology!!! This is a must when visiting Yellowstone especially if you only are here a short time.

  We had an amazing day with Cara spotting wildlife . She pitched it really well for our two teenage daughters and was great company .

  Cara's wildlife tour is a day NOT to skip in your plans to visit Yellowstone.

  Our adult family of four spent a marvelous Christmas Eve day with Cara touring Yellowstone on a wildlife viewing tour. She picked us up first thing in the morning with... read more hot chocolate, coffee and breakfast goodies. From there we entered the park and encountered bison, coyote's, elk, mountain goats, long horn sheep and a badger! It was a beautiful snowy day as Cara drove up through the park stopping to view wildlife and set up four scopes for us to view animals if they were at a distance. We were all very impressed with her knowledge and capability. She provided a nourishing lunch for both meat eaters and vegetarians in Cooke City (warmth! an indoor toilet!) It was a wonderful experience for all of us and I highly recommend her as both guide and educator. Don't hesitate to book this dedicated guide!

  We spent the day with Cara and it was easliy the best day of our 5-day trip. We got to watch a grizzly eat an elk that had... read more been drowned by a bear 5 days before. And then a second bear tried to approach but that was a no go for the first bear. It was nature at its best and we got to witness it. Totally unforgettable. Cara's equipment was indispensable (images so sharp and clear!) in helping us to see this up close and personal. We also saw tons of saw elk and bison. And lots of other birds, ducks, etc. But definitely the highlight was that bear sighting. Totally worth the money. Thanks Cara!

  We had the best afternoon with Mike! He took us on a gorgeous trail where we only encountered 5 other people in 4 hours. We learned about the geology, topography,... read more flora, and fauna — and got to listen to some amazing elk bugling! After four hours and about 7-8 miles, we were exhausted and yet still invigorated. Don’t miss this experience!

  Literally, the best way you can spend a day in Yellowstone. Cara took us around to all of her favorite spots and of course, we saw grizzly's, a wolf pack... read more at play, bald eagles, mountain goats, osprey in the nest, elk, and a ton of other smaller critters. You can go it alone and hope to catch a glimpse, or you can go with a pro and hear about the behavior, population, and a ton of other facts. No question, we will do this again next time we return to the park.

  We LOVED this! Booked the Snow Sampler for our first morning in Gardiner/Yellowstone. Met our guide, Matt Herger, promptly at 9:30am, He was great - got us... read more rentals for our snow shoes and we followed him into Mammoth Hot Springs to begin our trek.

  We spent two full days with Cara looking for wildlife. As all the other reviews have stated, she provides an outstanding experience. She comes with high-powered scopes that... read more enable one to see animals that are almost invisible to the naked eye and difficult to spot with normal binoculars. I will not repeat all of the praise that others have documented in these reviews, but rather I will emphasize that Cara will give an experience that cannot be duplicated on your own. She knows where to go to see the animals, she is able to locate them when they are invisible to those without her knowledge, and you will see animals that you would not see on your own. In addition, she is a delight to work with. There is a reason that all of her reviews are outstanding-she is that good. You will be happy if you choose to spend a day or two, or even more, with her.

Not only did we visit all three of our requested sites, we visited places that we did not even know about, all at Mike’s suggestion! The Emerald Spring was gorgeous. Another highlight was visiting a pathway with bear paw prints. Oh and seeing lovely bison. So good! We never felt rushed. All occurred at a very comfortable pace. Lunch was great. We were sad for the excursion to end. Overall, top notch guide - Mike- took us on a wonderful tour of Yellowstone. Highly recommend! …
