Yellowstone Drive Guide
The Ultimate GPS Audio Tour App
Turn your car into a private guided tour and explore Yellowstone and Grand Teton like a local!
Planning a trip to Yellowstone National Park shouldn't feel like a second job. Most visitors spend their vacation stuck in "traffic jams" at Old Faithful or circling parking lots at Artist Point, missing the hidden waterfalls and secret meadows just a few miles away.
The Yellowstone Driving App changes everything. Designed by Teddy Garland — the renowned "Yellowstone Guy" with over 60 years of in-park experience — this app is your key to beating the crowds and discovering the wild heart of the Rockies. Check out what makes this handheld Yellowstone trip planner a must-have for your next vacation!
Why Download the Yellowstone Drive Guide?
Unlike static paper maps or basic GPS apps, the Yellowstone Drive Guide is an active, location-based storyteller. As you drive through the gates of Yellowstone or Grand Teton, the app works in the background using your phone’s GPS.
530+ Geo-Triggered Points: Every time you approach a "Yellowstone Marker" on our map, the app automatically triggers a story, a local tip, or a navigation prompt.
30 Hours of Commentary: From the geology of the geyser basins to the history of the "Yellowstone Wolf," you’ll have a professional guide in your passenger seat for the entire journey.
The "Local" Advantage: We don’t just show you the big-ticket items; we guide you to overlooked paths and secret vistas that stay off the main driving maps.
No Signal? No Problem: The app is designed for the rugged backcountry. Download your tour once, and it works seamlessly without cell service or data.
Beat the Crowds & See More Wildlife
The #1 question visitors ask is, "Where are the wolves and bears?" Our Yellowstone self driving tour app answers that. We provide specific local insights on the best spots and times to view bison, elk, and grizzlies — including the secret roads known only to those who have lived here for decades.
Whether you are looking for the best swimming spots (we’ve identified 18!), the best hiking trails for families, or activities beyond the park boundaries like whitewater rafting and four-wheeling, the app serves as your comprehensive digital concierge. Create your own perfect Yellowstone itinerary with our key insights!
How it Works: One Map, Endless Adventures

Turn it On
As you enter any park gate — West Yellowstone, Gardiner, Cody, or Jackson — the app begins your tour.
Follow the Yellow Markers
When you see a yellow icon on your screen, listen up. It’s your cue to pull over for a stunning view or take a specific turn to find a "hidden gem."
The Perfect Companion: Explore Yellowstone Like a Local (Guidebook)
While the app is your real-time navigator, our best-selling companion guidebook, Explore Yellowstone Like a Local, is your ultimate planning tool. Many travelers use the guidebook at the hotel or around the campfire to plan the next day’s route, then let the Yellowstone Driving App take over the narration while they drive. Together, they offer the most complete Yellowstone experience available today.
