FAMILY VACATION
From Old Faithful to Grand Teton – enjoy six days exploring the iconic American West. Featuring biking, hiking, rafting and more, this family-friendly adventure will reveal stunning landscapes and forge lasting memories.
Activity Level 1
What's The Rush?
I'm active and in decent shape and not looking to experience a place just through a bus window. I'm happy to slow down on the trail, soak it in and breathe in the fresh air.
Walking: 2-3 hours per day on gentle-gradient trails.
Other activities: On these trips, you'll be taking part in a range of other activities that focus less on building up a sweat and more on enjoying the finer things in life.
Activity Level 2
On the Move
Sure, I own some hiking boots, they're even worn in, but they don't go on long trips. I like my creature comforts and I like to give a range of activities a go.
Walking: 2-4 hours per day on gentle to moderate gradient trails. No multi-day hikes.
Biking: 1-3 hours, cruisy rides achievable by anyone, even first-timers. Kayaking: 1-3 hours, entry-level sea kayaking with specialist guides and stable boats.
Other activities (i.e. snorkeling): Always optional and very little exertion required. A highlight for many!
Activity Level 3
Step It Up
I love an active vacation. Engaging in a challenging activity with a difficult goal, such as reaching a summit, is exactly what I need to unwind in the evenings.
Hiking: Typically, 3-6 hours per day on well-formed backcountry trails. Expect some significant gradient inclines and declines.
Altitude: Your trip may include some moderate altitude areas, though these don't form the focus of the trip and are generally manageable.
Biking: 1-3 hours on well-formed paths or roads where you can expect some hills with moderate climbs and descents.
Kayaking: 1-3 hours, entry-level sea kayaking with specialist guides and stable boats.
Other activities (i.e. caving): Always optional and very little exertion required. A highlight for many!
Activity Level 4
Challenge Accepted
I'll let my trusty guides sweat the small things, so I can focus on my goal. Getting to the top, reaching the end, achieving my dreams! Sure, it'll be tough, but the views will be worth it.
Hiking / Trekking: Typically, 4–6-hour hikes with options for more, sometimes with limited or no vehicle support and nearly always with ascents and descents.
Altitude: Some trips at this level will reach a significant altitude. We are here to help you manage that and make your experience one to cherish for a lifetime.
Biking & Kayaking: If one, or both, of these activities are 'your thing,' there are trip options in this range, allowing you to be on two wheels or with a paddle in your hand for most of the day.
Activity Level 5
The Upper Limit
I'm ready to put in the hard work to reap the rewards. I'm a seasoned adventurer, not afraid to get my boots wet.
Trekking & Altitude: This is classic trekking, at altitude. Some might even call it 'expedition-style.' We've had folks from all walks of life achieve their dreams on our grade 5 trips, so if you're in for a challenge get in touch to find out if this is for you.

"Trip was extremely well organized from start to finish. All accommodation were above my expectations. Most food options were very good, had a fantastic meal at the Jackson Lake Lodge. The planned activities were amazing and we all had a lot of fun. We had enough time after our planned activities to relax before the meal. 100% would recommend for anyone who wants to see the best of Yellowstone.

Derek and Moose (Michael) are top notch. They were knowledgeable, anticipated our needs, great ambassadors for the area and Austin Adventures. They were attentive and the little touches like refreshments and snacks, in addition to the excellent lunches, were much appreciated. The days were well planned out; interesting and thoroughly enjoyable!

"The trip was nothing short of fantastic! The sights were amazing. They were everything that we'd hope for and then some. Not having to deal with the logistics of things was a real luxury. The guides knew how to avoid the crowds as best as possible and were always there to help. They were very knowledgeable, friendly and hard working. We were surprised and amazed by the wonderful lunches that seemed to appear out of nowhere. From forest settings, mountain views or on the beach, we never went hungry. Restaurants were top notch as well. We were also fortunate in that we were a small group of 5 and everybody got along well with each other. It was like traveling with family.

Yellowstone, Glacier & Grand Teton Adventure - July 2023
"We loved our trip to Grand Teton, Yellowstone and Glacier. The views were fantastic. But what made our trip extra special were the guides and other members of our group. The guides Nicole and Ryan (better known as cornbread) went above and beyond what was expected. Both are very friendly and caring. Our lunches made by Nicole were exceptional, Ryan's cornbread was how he obtained his nickname by our entire group. The resorts and restaurants picked out where top notch. Only exception for meals was the Canyon Lodge. The dinner and breakfast were really bad!
The members of our group were so much fun.
They guides really went above when my husband couldn't do some of the tougher hikes. One would hike a shorter distance with him so he was included.
Can't say enough great things about the trip!!!

Yellowstone & Grand Teton Family Vacation - July 2023
"This vacation was nothing short of EPIC. It was well-planned and efficient, with everything running smoothly. There was a great variety of activity that kept the whole family engaged (ages 9-70+). The food was great, and meals accommodated all dietary needs, including vegan. The views and the experiences are things we will be talking about for many years to come - whitewater rafting, Old Faithful, moose and bison galore, Artist Point, Wapiti Trail, and biking in the shadows of the Grand Tetons. Every picture I took on my phone looks like a postcard!
It was our magnificent guides, Rhet and Bryson, that made it all happen. This was concierge service at its finest! These gentlemen joyful engaged the whole family, especially the kids. They recognized and addressed needs even before we expressed them. They kept us safe and entertained at every step. They adjusted our itinerary based on our interests and energy levels. By the end of the trip, we were prepared to adopt them as permanent members of the family.

"We took the Grand Teton -Yellowstone Family Adventure June 25-30, 2023. It was beyond incredible. A friend had recommended Austin Adventures after taking his family on the same trip a couple of years ago. He was super excited about how great the guides were and how wonderful it was for his whole family. It was far beyond our expectations. We had Dereck, Moose and Nicole as our guides and they went far beyond our expectations on every phase of the trip. What a team they were in interacting with our grandkids ranging in age from six to seventeen. They prepared outstanding lunches out on the trails and they gave us so many facts about the history, geology, nature and what to expect. We could never have had such an experience on our own. It was worth every penny of the cost. The lodging was outstanding, the meals were superb, the hikes were fantastic, the biking was just right for our group, and the rafting was incredible. They would stop so we could see wildlife, and they explained things such as what fur was left on the trees the animals rubbed against. They had the bikes sized right, and even saw…

They had the bikes sized right, and even saw to it that our request for a tag along bike was met for the six year old. They acquired an extra large helmet for my head, when the large didn’t fit on day one. The guides felt like part of our family. Several in our party of 12 balked at the white water rafting, but we trusted the guides and everyone went. They all loved it!! It went too fast is all I can say and we will never forget that as our best ever family vacation. read less

Everything was beautifully laid out and highly organized. In addition, we were pampered with excellent service and amazing food (picnic lunches were outstanding!!!)
We were also surprised with several added, little extra touches like goodie bags outside our hotel room door one night, amazing snack spreads in between events and surprise souvenir gifts at the end of our journey!
Both of our guides were kind, gracious and incredibly knowledgable! They truly went above and beyond to accommodate us in every way.
What a journey, and what an adventure. One of the best trips I’ve ever had!

As members of the Active Adventures family, Austin Adventures offers booking assurance that allows you to secure your spot with a deposit now and pay the rest later. Plus, if your plans change or you can’t travel, you can transfer your booking or request a refund on any additional funds paid (less deposit) up to 90 days (180 days for Africa and Himalayas trips) from your original trip start date.
As an Austin Adventures traveler, it’s highly recommended you take out travel insurance to cover the likes of travel delays, missed connections, medical expenses or injury, or lost baggage for your travel with us. Please head to our Travel Protection page for more in-depth information and our recommended insurance provider.
We generally take up to 18 people per trip, although this can vary, and all our trips have at least two of our guides to look after you (apart from the occasions we have a small group). We have found that our trips tend to attract a particular kind of person and many people have commented that the social scene was one of the highlights of their trip!
Our adult-only departures require a minimum age of 16 years and our family departures require a minimum age of 6 years to join (7 years on our Alaska Family Adventure) and are a great way to meet other like-minded families who like to get outside.
Please note child rates apply to children 12 years and under.
We welcome many solo travelers on our trips – in fact, we get so many solo travelers and they always say it’s a great way to travel alone, but not actually by themselves. You’ll have an incredible adventure sharing your experiences with other like-minded travelers, and the best part is we don't charge extra for solo travelers, providing you don’t mind sharing a room. However, for bookings within 90 days of your chosen departure, a forced single supplement will apply if there is no other guest of the same gender already booked to share with.
If you prefer not to share a room at all, you can upgrade to a single room, if one is available.
Active Adventures & Austin Adventures family vacations are naturally about spending time with family and as such, most families opt to share rooms on our trips. At time of booking, families consisting of four guests with children aged 17 and under will be automatically assigned one shared room. However, the following alternative rooming allocations are available:
Rooming preferences are subject to availability and must be communicated in writing at time of booking. Automatic assignments as per this policy will be applied in the absence of any specification provided by guests. Any request for additional rooms during trips will be at the guests’ own expense and subject to rates made available by the accommodation provider at the time. All minors (guests aged 17 and under) must be accompanied by at least one adult.
We’re accustomed to catering to the following special diets:
You are allowed one piece of luggage on your trip, plus a daypack. Your main piece of luggage should not exceed 50 pounds (23 kilograms) and can be anything from a duffle bag to a sports bag with wheels or a suitcase. You’ll also want a good quality backpack sized 25-30 liters (2000 cubic inches) to use throughout the days.
You'll be able to find a reliable ATM once you arrive to start your trip, within the township or at the airport you land in, as national park ATM locations are sparse at best. Aside from tips for your guides, you could bring $200 and go home with change though some people like to bring some cash to cover a round of drinks, a few souvenirs, and dinner on "night on your own", although you could just as easily use a credit card for these purchases too.
You will have 2-3 guides on your Austin Adventure (depending on group size) and we recommend $15-25 per day, per guest, per guide. Typically, gratuities are offered by check or cash in local currency on the final morning of the trip and can either be given to each guide individually or to one guide to be equally distributed. Most of our guides these days also accept gratuities via Venmo (please note this app does not work in Canada). All dining, housekeeping and activity tips are included in your trip price.
