Tours

Come Visit Crow Country, the out of the way place known to most from stories, but never seen.  Take a step back in time as we travel to those places where our ancestors once lived.  The breathtaking beauty of the Crow Reservation awaits you...
 
 
Create your own Crow Country get-a-way.  All tours are designed specifically for you, see historic & archeological sites, deserts, high foothills, mountains and pristine wild areas.  Tours are limited to five people and special meals are provided upon request.  Amenities are very limited in the great outdoors.  We provide the transportation and if camping, all the equipment and meals for an overnight adventure.  All tours are designed exclusive bookings.  We are always happy to put together an all-inclusive package for you.  WestFork provides special guide services to tour companies with charter buses coming on to the Crow Reservation or Crow Country.
 
NOTE--Advance notice is needed to obtain trespass permits to the areas closed to non-tribal members.
 
The tours listed are lengthy day trips, it takes several trips to see everything.  They involve some walking, and the ride is in a four-wheel drive truck across a variety of roadbeds, some just trails to see the sites.  A guide will be on all trips.  You can change them any way you want.  For the more adventurous, back country tours offers the opportunity to explore Crow Country . . . off the beaten path, away from any commercial services.  Plans can be made for overnight camping on the trail.
 
Take a tour, into the area, it beckons with history from antiquity and nature's beauty.  Get a feel for the past.  Explore trails and roads that were once traveled by Indians, cowboys, explorers, outlaws, fur trappers, and settlers.
