An Expedition to Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone is an awesome family vacation idea. You can watch hot faithful springs or enjoy a Lake scenic cruise in the Yellowstone National Park or take a tour to have a glimpse of world’s most feared bears and lots more. A perfect chill-out time for your family is at the world’s first National park, the Yellowstone National Park.


Few heads up points for people visiting Yellowstone with kids:

o People with toddlers, bring a toddler backpack lease and carry a supply of tissue toilet-seat covers and disposable wipes for use at the portable lavatories available in the parks

o Carry a portable DVD player for your kids to watch or a disposable camera, so that they can take their own photos and create a scrapbook later.

o Having in car games, CDs, books would be fun and engaging for the kids.

o The park is very open and spacious so plan for a picnic in a cozy place at the park and let your kids run free.

Exploring Yellowstone:

There are many spots at the Yellowstone National park that are favorite family vacation area.
  • Canyon Village: No other Yellowstone place is more picturesque than the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, a place which gave birth to the name “Yellowstone” owing to the glowing golden shade of the riverbanks. If you visit any local shops for a souvenir, you are sure to find huckleberry jam and syrup. Visit the Canyon Visitor Center which has been renovated recently offering a new interactive attraction called the “super volcano” exhibit.

  • Lower Geyser Basin: If you want your kids to take an interest in science, then show them this major region of thermal activity. From a 100-200 foot gushing geysers to spooky mists can be spotted here at the Lower Geyser Basin. At the Fountain Paint Pots you’ll find your kids giggling with glee at the noises and smell made by the hot springs

  • Firehole Canyon and Lake drive: Be smitten by the most pleasant one-way two mile drive, The Firehole Canyon Drive, located just south to the Madison Junction is a detour off the Grand Loop Road. You can enjoy the popular swimming area near Firehole falls or drive seven miles to the south to see the Firehole Lake Drive and view several geysers en route.

Non-locals would have to get a travelers visa approved by the Homeland security to visit any place in the US. ESTA US Visa  is an option for people living out of the country. An ESTA Visa Application can be completed quickly and easily online.
