About Scenic Safaris
Scenic Safaris is Jackson Hole's year-round motorised adventure outfitter, operating snowmobile tours in winter and side-by-side UTV tours in summer from their base on South Highway 89. They hold permits in Bridger-Teton National Forest, Grand Teton National Park, and the surrounding backcountry, giving guests access to terrain that is off-limits to most operators. The company has been running tours in the valley for over two decades.
Winter programmes include guided snowmobile tours through Granite Hot Springs, Togwotee Pass, and the Gros Ventre Range, with options for beginners and experienced riders. Summer brings side-by-side UTV tours on mountain trails above the valley floor, offering panoramic views of the Tetons without the need for hiking. Both formats run half-day and full-day itineraries, and private tours can be arranged for families or corporate groups. All machines, helmets, and outerwear are provided.
Scenic Safaris stands out for the quality of their permitted terrain. Their Granite Hot Springs snowmobile route ends at a natural hot spring where guests can soak after the ride — an experience unique in the valley. Guides are local residents who know the trail network intimately, and the fleet is refreshed regularly to keep machines reliable at altitude. It is a solid pick for visitors who want backcountry access without the physical demands of skiing or hiking.
