    I get around very well for being 71 but my wife has medical problems and would not be considered active. short walks are OK. September 5 2022 is our 50th aniitversity and this tour is all about her. She has always wanted to go to Yellowstone. If this tour is not for us do you have one that is?

    Asked on January 13th, 2022

    We are interested in a Yellowstone tour leaving from Salt Lake City. We understand the tour uses a van or minibus. We're wondering how the luggage situation works. How many bags per passenger? Are there laundry services available during the tour?

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Explore!OperatorWritten January 2022

      For this trip, we usually have a trailer, depending on the number of passengers booked. So luggage is pulled in the trailer behind the van. I am sure that you can do laundry along the way.

      TravelerWritten March 2022

      I didn't see the trip notes. Where can I find them? My wife and I have some back and leg issues, so we're not really into hiking. We can walk for a while, but not for hours. At our age, we're not the wilderness types. I'm 74 and she's 67. That being said, we love the itinerary of this trip, but concerned about getting around. Would love more info on the transportation options during the trip.

    • Explore!OperatorWritten March 2022

      The Trip notes will be under Attachments on the dashboard. Just to the right of the message box. We use a maxi wagon for this trip.
