Yellowstone Bear World

Expensive but so much fun and more to do than I thought. If you are traveling to Yellowstone and really want to see bears, this is definitely a must stop! There were a ton of bears as well as Elk, Deer, Bison, Goats, and birds. You can see most animals in the drive through section. In the park, they have a petting zoo where you can pet the goats, deer, pigs, and ducks. They also have a spot you can see the baby bears pretty close up and they are really fun! The dinosaur world is really cool and feels like you are walking into Jurassic park. My kids had a blast there. They also have about 6 rides you can go on. My son enjoyed it and was happy he could ride all the rides (have to be at least 36" to ride with an adult on some rides). We went on a weekday and they only had one attendant running the rides so we had to wait around a bit for them to go ride to ride. They also have a fun gift shop with different souvenirs including a build a bear experience. My son really loved the cotton candy machine. Overall, I definitely think it is a place to check out and you could spend all day there if you wanted

This place was okay. The best part was the bear cubs! They were so cute! 😍 It is a very kid friendly place with carnival rides and dinosaurs. The drive through the bear area was okay as well. Couldn't see many cause they were too far away, wish you could have your windows down to take pictures but I understand why you can't. It would have been cool to feed a bear cub but it was kind of pricy at $75 a person. They had some bison and elk before you go into the bear driving area. Overall fun experience but definitely geared more for younger kids.

This was *perfect* for my 7-year-old! The rest of us enjoyed it, but not as much as younger children would. The rides and dinosaur area were more suited for younger children. We spent a great morning here! I would say arrive early to avoid the crowds and beat the heat. We only spent a few hours going at a leisurely pace. It lost a star because I was kind of ticked at the feeding the bears tour- we did the family pass because it was more affordable. If you’re not on the favored side, though, you just see a LOT less. The right side (left of you’re looking at the vehicle, right for the tour guide and when you’re being loaded on) faces into the park while the left side faces the outer fringe *the entire tour*. You can guess what side we were on. We couldn’t see the grizzlies, especially when they started fighting over food. We heard the other side see it. Sounded cool. We couldn’t see the white baby elk. We were facing away from the elders of the black bears. We threw our food to nothing 70% of the time, we had one tenacious black bear that was smart enough to go to the neglected side. So do yourself a favor and choose the right side!

This is a little out of the way for most people. But it was a blast! Great for families. We saw so many bears, they walk right by the car. They also have bison, elk,deer, and much more. They also have a small amusement park, which is great for kids and adults. And then there is Jurassic River where they have a couple dozen life size animatronic dinosaurs... this was very cool. Oh, and you can feed/milk baby bears. These were 8 months old as of this post

Super fun time! There was so much to do I would recommend planning on spending several hours there. We saw the baby bears being fed. That was about the cutest thing ever!! Then they went off to play. They were just adorable beyond reason. Two of the cubs began to wrestle. It was funny and sweet to watch. There are a bunch of rides for the kids, ice cream, snacks and a pretty substantial gift shop. There are giant bear statues you can pose with. The driving portion is lovely. Tons of bears just lounging around as well as bison and elk. We had a fantastic afternoon at Bear World. 🥳

Not as many bears as there have been in the past but still nice to get away and see. It has gone up in cost quite a bit the past years. Helpful tips: You can go more than once through. Book your bear feedings early they sell out fast, petting zoo, rides and dinosaur area are included. Look to see if it is cheaper to do individual prices vs vehicle.

This is a great little break from a road trip. I love bears and seeing them this close was really fun. Highly recommend going and seeing the gift shop alongside the baby bears. They are super cute as well. We also had huckleberry ice cream that was really really good. But I’m excited to come back and see more bears!

Bear world was fantastic! The whole dinosaur thing was out of place. They coulda invested the money somewhere else! A good place to see bears for pictures! Gift shop is overpriced like any that we go to. And the cost is kinda extravagant just to drive through.

This was a great day to be there. There are new attractions here and some under construction. The new Jurasic animatronics was a good addition and we really enjoyed it. The drive through bear enclosure was fantastic and they were active today. One bear got on a hood of a car and a ranger had to get him off of it. Then he got on the rangers car. So just remember they are wild and will do what they want. This visit was by far enjoyment spectacular.

We love Bear World! We used our Get out Pass, this is the 3rd time we've been even though they're getting older. Best for younger kids as far as the rides go, but still fun even for the older ones. We got on the feeding the tour bus, which was fun to hear all the facts and see the bears come close to eat the bread pieces. The baby bears are a delight to watch no matter how old you are! The animatronic dinosaurs with roaring sound effects are pretty fun to see as well. The gift shop is great, tons of souvenirs to choose from also fudge and Huckleberry candies.
