Amtrak Vacations

Yellowstone National Park Discovery

7-day Salt Lake City and Yellowstone trip with guided tours both places

Amtrak Vacations runs Yellowstone National Park Discovery as a 7-day, 6-night trip that splits evenly between Salt Lake City and West Yellowstone, three nights in each. The Salt Lake City stay opens with a guided city tour taking in the Mormon Tabernacle, the Salt Lake Temple, the State Capital, and Brigham Young's Governor's Mansion, before a roundtrip transfer carries travelers up to West Yellowstone. Inside the park, two full guided tours cover the Lower and Upper Loops, with named stops at Old Faithful Geyser, Isa Lake on the Continental Divide, and the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. The seasonal Lower Loop Tour is swapped for the Old Faithful Explorer Tour during winter months. This trip suits travelers who want both a city's worth of history and a deep, guided look at Yellowstone's best-known sights, rather than a quick pass through the park. The $1,159 per-person starting price does not include rail travel to Salt Lake City.

What to know before you look closer

The $1,159 per-person starting price covers hotel nights, guided tours, and transfers only; rail travel to Salt Lake City is not included and is booked separately.
Amtrak Vacations doesn't publish which day covers the Lower Loop versus the Upper Loop tour, or how the guided city tour and free time in Salt Lake City are arranged.
The Lower Loop Tour is seasonal, with the Old Faithful Explorer Tour substituted during winter months, so the specific stops can vary by travel date.
