Tour Details & Pricing
AS OF SEPTEMBER 30TH, OUR 2024 SEASON HAS CONCLUDED!
Things to Note (Updated 2024):
1.) For any tour, you must have a Glacier National Park Pass (our price DOES NOT include the entrance fee to Glacier National Park). If you are already traveling with any type of pass (Annual Pass/Vehicle Pass/Senior Pass/Etc.), you do not need to purchase one but please bring it with you. You can find more information on passes HERE, or if you are ready to buy a pass ahead of time, please click HERE (this is not the same as a “Vehicle Reservation” for the Going to the Sun Road – see below).
2.) NEW FOR 2024: For any tour, you DO NOT need a “Vehicle Reservation” to access our pickup or departure locations. All of our daily tours depart in areas outside of the “Vehicle Reservation” checkpoints. If you are traveling on your own and wish to purchase a “Vehicle Reservation”, please visit the Park’s website HERE.
3.) If the desired date is unavailable on the booking calendar, it does not necessarily mean it is sold out. Our availability changes daily!
4.) Our office will have limited hours over the course of our off season. If you have contacted us via the contact form or left a message, we will reach out in the order it was received. Thank you for your patience.
5.) For the Full Day Tour (from any pickup location), the price does not include the cost of lunch, however, there is a designated lunch stop where you will have the opportunity to purchase lunch. If you would like to pack lunch and/or snacks, feel free!
6.) For the Full Day Tour (from any pickup location), the price does not include the entrance fee to the Museum of the Plains Indian. Please keep in mind this is not a guaranteed stop, due to timing of the tour, and the the cost is optional.
