From the unexpected traffic to how spread out everything is, a little planning will make the difference on your trip! If you’re dreaming of a family trip out west, this is truly one of the most unforgettable places in the USA and a must see at least once in your lifetime. Have you been to yellowstone or is it on your list? #yellowstonenationalpark #usatravel #travelinspiration #familytravel #nationalparks
We will be there in July. We fly into Bozeman Airport. If we want to do Yellowstone and The Tetons. Where should we go first? Where should we stay for the first night?

Don’t stay inside the park. Dining options are awful. All owned by corporations that don’t gaf about the parks or their workers.

As someone who goes at least once a year these are spot on. Binoculars, good ones, are a must. If you can a spotting scope is better. Staying in the park is key for early and late days.

I took my family to Yellowstone in 2005. We did a week and I still felt like we had only scratched the surface of the park. I would recommend a minimum of 10 full days.

These are all good tips. We went the week leading into Memorial Day weekend in 2025 and it SNOWED a couple of days! So definitely bring a light jacket. We stayed in Big Sky, Montana because it was “just” an hour away. It was beautiful but yes, that was awful driving that every day to Yellowstone and then you’re driving through Yellowstone itself most of the day. I ended up staying at our lodge a couple of days while the others went because it was too much. lol. But absolutely gorgeous & yes, i truly had no concept of how HUGE it is. 💜

I agree with everything in this post except staying in the park. It's overrated and overpriced.

We use the GuideAlong app in all parks we visit. Works like a dream in remote parks such as Yellowstone. It gives you a guided audio tour while driving in the park and also provides tips and tricks. We love it.

Great tips... I learned how big the park was after losing cell service and ending up at South entrance instead of East entrance....
