This trip was wonderful! 
I recommend this trip to anyone who has never been to the park. You will make frequent stops at all the best views, many we never would have known about if we weren’t on this bus. You get the best of the park in one day. 
The drive to the park is long, but Showshoe John is so knowledgeable, he had interesting information about every area we drove through. 
He made the trip extra special, such a cool tour guide. XYZRoxanne Fisher - Sheboygan, WiThis trip was wonderful!
