Cindy Zhou: Highly recommended. I had bought two guide books for planning Yellowstone trip, this one and a lonely planet one. It turns out I only used this one. Its information is organized so well, clean, and easy for me to find the information I need. Besides, it includes a very useful map, that is detached from the book, which is great for navigation.

I like ducks: The wife and I stayed 13 nights in Yellowstone last summer and the information in the book was extremely helpful in the planning and maximizing our time there!!! We were able to plan our sightseeing goals for the first 8 days and then go back and hit a few misses due to the crowds and do some nice hikes. We got off the beaten path a couple of times along with a little bit of fishing and this book was a big help.

Michigan Wildflower: Yellowstone is a huge park and it can be daunting to create a schedule to see the highlights even if you have a few days. This guide provided spot-on advice, itineraries and park highlights. We drove the Lower Grand Loop Road "Best Scenic Drive" clockwise from the west entrance (starting early in the morning based on the author's tips) and were able to see many highlights that day. We drove up to Mammoth Hot Springs and through Lamar Valley another day. The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone was spectacular. The author's suggestion of the boat shuttle across Jenny Lake in the Tetons was also excellent. Even if the visitor centers in Yellowstone would have been open (still closed due to Covid/staff shortages) this guide would have been indispensable!

Amazon Customer: Excellent--both in detail and quality! We have never been to Yellowstone or the Tetons and looked for something that would help us choose routes, what to see on the routes, and how long it would take, where to stay, where to eat, how long in advance to reserve hotels, etc. This covers it all including scenic drives, backpacking, biking, camping, where and when to best spot wildlife, etc. We also expected to receive a flimsy paged book which this is not. Excellent detailed maps also. Going next year, can't wait!
Highly recommend this May, 2021 edition. Thank you Becky Lomax!

Johanna: It's a great book! It perfectly directed us in our 3 day Yellowstone trip. My only complaint is I wish it had more hiking and scenic drive maps.
