This trip to Yellowstone left a lasting impression on my husband and me. The scenery was as breathtaking as we had hoped, but what truly surprised and delighted us was the professionalism and thoughtfulness of our guide, Michael. He delivered his explanations in an engaging and humorous manner, demonstrated extensive knowledge, and paced the itinerary perfectly. The most touching moment came at the Old Faithful Geyser, where he had already selected a particularly comfortable spot for us in advance. Not only did it offer a wide-open view, but it also avoided the crowds and direct sunlight. When the geyser erupted, it was both awe-inspiring and serene—a truly classic moment! The entire trip was smooth and enjoyable, with every detail thoughtfully considered. We wholeheartedly give Michael a five-star recommendation!

Our guide was very knowledgeable and told us about a lot of the history regarding Antelope Island. He took his time looking for wildlife. We saw bison, deer, coyotes, rabbits and owls. Our family of three were the only ones on the trip, so when he found out my husband had knee surgeries recently we didn’t do the hike at the end. Instead, he took us to a different place on the Island to watch the sunset. It was beautiful. We enjoyed the tour.

It was really good to have two retired members of the Choir on the bus to the venue to explain the recruitment process and other aspects of the choir. The performance of the Choir, orchestra, bells and organist was amazing. Our driver was very good as we saw some of the key sites of the city. He was extremely knowledgeable.
