You may see Yellowstone National Park in your own way. Roam the trails
alone, or with an experienced guide, as you prefer. But, by all means,
bring your camera!
Yellowstone is _your_ park! It has been provided with fine roads and
modern hotels so that you may enjoy its wonders in comfort. You are
genuinely welcome to come and stay as long as you like. You could easily
stay all summer and never exhaust the alluring appeal, the charm, and
tonic effect of Yellowstone’s beauty. However, if you can stay for only
a limited period, you can still see all the principal points of
interest.
You can live as modestly or as lavishly as your choice dictates. In
traveling about the Park you may select the style of accommodations that
appeals most to you. You can go by Park motor bus with other visitors,
or by yourself in a private automobile. Such automobiles are available
for hire at government-approved rates.
Splendid camping sites may be found in all parts of the Park. At the
main centers of interest are modern hotels, as well as clean,
comfortable cabins. Service and accommodations are excellent and one
cannot help but marvel at such comfort and luxury in the depths of the
wilderness.

So that visitors may see as much of the Park as possible, in a limited
amount of time, pre-arranged tours by motor bus are operated. These
tours are especially appreciated by folks who travel by rail to
Yellowstone. The tour consumes just two and one-half days. Leisure stops
are made to properly see all the chief scenic attractions. Another
advantage of selecting a pre-arranged tour is that it eliminates the
anxiety of driving your own car over unfamiliar mountain roads. Without
stress and strain, completely relaxed, you’re all the more free to enjoy
Yellowstone’s wondrous sights.

Bus drivers in Yellowstone Park are thoroughly competent and reliable.
Also, Ranger Naturalists of the National Park Service provide many
enlightening bits of information on the formations, the flora and fauna
in their talks and on guided walks.
