Hello Coast,
Well you are very fortunate to have Dean Saliani as your tour manager. I went on this tour with Travelsphere last May and he was brilliant. Every day you will get details of where you will be visiting that day. And during some of the journeys he will play some DVDs of old episodes of ‘Gunsmoke’ (which can be seen on Sky’s TCM channel) when you are near Deadwood.
The weather will very warm / hot but possibly very cold when you are near Yellowstone as it was for me last year. But then with the snow, Yellowstone was still brilliant, especially walking around the geysers!
In Jackson Hole it was icey. Talking of Jackson Hole, on ITV next Saturday pm (23rd March) in ‘Any Which Way You Can’ the fight scene with Clint Eastwood took place here so you will get a feel of the town, especially the Elk antler arch which is not far from the hotel.A real cowboy town.
You will see more of my comments on this tour on another ‘National Parks Mount Rushmore & Little Big Horn’ site started by oliveb. I think doing the tour this way round, in my opinion the tour just gets better each day!
Don’t forget to take spare memory cards for the camera/ camcorder as you will need them!!
If you want any more information just ask.
Malcolm
