What makes for a good wildlife safari.

A comfortable vehicle and good snacks are a must for a fun day on safari, but what makes our tours exceptional are our incredibly passionate and knowledgeable guides! Each of our guides have unique backgrounds in wildlife and all share the same love for our parks and the animals. This is more than just a job to them and part of the thrill of guiding is sharing the experience with their guests when you see your first wild grizzly, or watch a herd of bison in their ancient natural range. Our expert guides equipped with our high-quality optics for up close viewing is sure to deliver a wildlife safari that you will never forget!

How should I prepare for my first animal safari?

One thing to know about Yellowstone and Grand Teton is that the weather is unpredictable. It’s not impossible to see snow in July! Even on hot summer days the mornings and evenings can be cold, so be sure to pack layers to prepare for varying temperatures. If you are coming from lower elevations, take your time and drink plenty of water. Don’t worry, there will be lots of restroom opportunities! Cell phone cameras have come a long way and will certainly do the job, but if you have a camera with a longer zoom be sure to bring it with you. There are no guarantees with wildlife, so keep an open mind. Wild animals are on their own schedules and there’s always a chance you won’t see the one thing you were hoping for. However, there are so many amazing things to see in these parks that you will not be disappointed!

How to tour from Jackson Hole to Yellowstone?

One of the best things about touring Yellowstone from Jackson Hole is that you get the bonus of traveling through Grand Teton National Park on the way. The roughly 50-mile drive between Jackson and the South Entrance is thoroughly enjoyable as you start with the sunrise hitting the jagged peaks of the Teton mountain range. You will have stunning scenery before you even reach the gate, and you may be surprised how many animals you see on the journey! All of this is possible on a day tour and you’ll be picked up and dropped off at your place of lodging. Seeing the best of Yellowstone has never been easier!

From Barbie to Janet Jackson to the Stones, here are must-see summer concerts coming to NJ

6 minute read.

jackson hole tours summer

It's a summer concert season of anniversaries, farewells and "we're backs."

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are back after the Boss had a bout with peptic ulcer disease. Area shows include Aug. 21 and 23 at Citizens Bank Park Philadelphia, and Sept. 15 at the Sea Hear Now festival in Asbury Park. Noah Kahan headlines the Sept. 14, Sea Hear Now show.

The Rolling Stones are also back with two shows at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford on May 23 and 26, and one at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on June 11.

Bachata giants Aventura are saying farewell with shows May 22 and 23 at Madison Square Garden in New York City, and June 2 to 4 at the Prudential Center in Newark. Alas, the Romeo Santos led Bronx hitmakers have said farewell in the past, but this is also group who said “We Broke the Rules.”

▶ Here's the complete summer concert schedule for PNC, the Stone Pony and MetLife Stadium

Canadian pop-punkers Sum 41 are saying so long on their “Tour of the Setting Sum,” and it opens the Stone Pony Summer Stage season on May 4. The Interrupters are also on the bill.

The TidalWave Music Festival, which took place last August in Atlantic City, and the Adjacent Music Festival, which took place last May also in Atlantic City, have both apparently said farewell. The county and alt-rock Live Nation-produced music fests have not made any announcements about future plans. However, the Barefoot Country Music Festival is returning June 15 to 18 to the Wildwood beach. Luke Bryan, Keith Urban, Kane Brown, Old Dominion and the Beach Boys are on the bill.

Finally, the Stone Pony is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year with events throughout the summer season, including four big Jersey Pride Celebration events on the Summer Stage in late May and early June — highlighted by two Fletcher shows on June 1 and 2.

Here are must-see summer concerts at the Jersey Shore and beyond:

Morgan Wallen

How popular is country star Morgan Wallen? His “One Thing at a Time” album spent 19 non-consecutive weeks on top of the Billboard 200 album chart —a record for a country music artist. He broke Garth Brooks’ 18 weeks for “Ropin’ the Wind.”

Wallen plays May 11 at Citizens Bank Ballpark in Philadelphia, and two big shows, May 17 and 18, at MetLife Stadium. The shows were originally scheduled to take place this time last year, but were postponed as doctors ordered him to rest his vocal cords.

Go : Morgan Wallen, May 11, Citizens Bank Ballpark, 1 Citizens Bank Way, Philadelphia, starting at $278; mlb.com/phillies/ballpark. Also May 17 and 18, MetLife Stadium, 1 MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, starting at $155; metlifestadium.com.

Aventura farewell

Aventura, aka the Kings of Bachata, said farewell in 2011 and 2016, but it looks like this time they mean it. Their Cerrando Ciclos tour, which plays May 22 and 23 at Madison Square Garden in New York City — and three shows, June 2 to 4 at Prudential Center in Newark — is billed as their final goodbye.

“I want you to join me on a journey where I will be definitively closing cycles,” said frontman Romeo Santos in a statement. “Because it is not the same to remember beautiful times as it is to be a prisoner of the past. We cannot stagnate in the nostalgia of yesterday, but rather move forward, discover new horizons, and show other facets.”

Go : Aventura, May 22 and 23, Madison Square Garden, 4 Pennsylvania Plaza, New York, starting at $243; msg.com. Also June 2 to 4, Prudential Center, 25 Lafayette St., Newark, starting at $270; prucenter.com.

Rolling Stones

Mick Jagger, 80, still moves like Jagger.

The legendary frontman for the Rolling Stones shared an Instagram reel of himself dancing to the Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera hit “Moves Like Jagger” as performed by a cover band in what looks like a seaside resort.

Fans can see for themselves as the Stones, who released their latest album “Hackney Diamonds” last year, play two shows at MetLife Stadium on May 23 and 26, and one at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on June 11.

Go : Rolling Stones, May 23 and 26, MetLife Stadium, starting at $115; metlifestadium.com. Also June 11 at Lincoln Financial Field, One Lincoln Financial Field Way, Philadelphia, starting at $153, lincolnfinancialfield.com.

Pride at the Stone Pony

The Stone Pony in Asbury Park is getting its Pride on.

The legendary venue has big shows and parties ready for the annual Jersey Pride Celebration, which takes place June 2 with a parade, a festival in Bradley Park and more. The Stone Pony Summer Stage area will be full of events. The Solid Pink Disco with Trixie and DJ Mateo Segade kicks things off on May 30; the Dreamland Pride in Asbury Park party with Purple Disco Machine takes over on May 31; and hometown hero Fletcher returns for two shows, June 1 and 2, on the Summer Stage.

“It will be a historic gathering that encapsulates everything Pride stands for: diversity, inclusivity and unity,” said Dreamland Pride producer Jake Resnicow. “We’re creating a space where everyone is welcome, and every moment is a step towards true acceptance. It’s a milestone for Asbury Park and for the Pride movement, and I couldn’t be more excited to share it with everyone.”

Go : Pride celebration begins May 30. Fletcher, June 1 and 2, Stone Pony Summer Stage, 913 Ocean Ave., Asbury Park; stoneponyonline.com.

John Fogerty and George Thorogood

Grab the flannel shirt and roll up your sleeves as legendary rocker John Fogerty continues his Celebration Tour this summer. George Thorogood and the Destroyers are along for the ride. Area shows include June 7 at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion in Camden, and June 15 at the PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel.

Both Fogerty and Thorogood have been performing more than 50 years.

“Celebrating the music of John Fogerty at the same time we celebrate our 50th anniversary is just about as good as it can get,” said Thorogood in a statement. “I’m looking forward to being out there with my friend John!”

Go : John Fogerty and George Thorogood, June 7, Freedom Mortgage Pavilion, 1 Harbour Blvd., Camden, starting at $57, livenation. Also June 15, PNC Bank Arts Center, Exit 116, Garden State Parkway, Holmdel, starting at $34; livenation.com.

North to Shore

The 2024 edition of the North to Shore festival will have Hart — and a whole lot more.

Shows by Kevin Hart, Frankie Valli, Stephen Colbert, Matchbox Twenty, Gary Clark Jr., the B-52s, Gabriel Iglesias, Bleachers, Jeezy, Scarface, Barenaked Ladies, Prince Royce and Wisin, Lake Street Dive and more in Asbury Park, Newark and Atlantic City will highlight the Jersey-centric festival.

Dates are June 10 to 16 in Asbury Park; June 17 to 23 in Atlantic City; and June 24 to 30 in Newark. Original Four Seasons member Valli, 89, brings his “Last Encore” tour to the Hard Rock in Atlantic City on June 22, and comedian Hart brings his “Brand New Material” tour to the Prudential Center in Newark on June 30.

North to Shore shows at the Stone Pony Summer Stage include Gary Clark Jr. on June 12; Band of Horses on June 13; Lake Street Drive on June 14; and Bleachers’ annual Shadow of the City on June 15.

Go : North to Shore Festival, June 10 to 16 in Asbury Park, June 17 to 23 in Atlantic City, June 24 to 30 in Newark. A complete schedule of events and more information is at northtoshore.com.

T-Pain is taking the party on the road this summer.

The hitmaker will headline the T-Pain's Mansion In Wiscansin Party tour June 21 at the Stone Pony Summer Stage in Asbury Park, and June 23 at the Central Park Summer Stage in New York City. LaRussell, NandoSTL and Young Ca$h are also on the bill.

There's going to be a lot of musical legacy on stage for this one: Willie Nelson and Family, Bob Dylan, and Robert Plant and Alison Krauss are playing this year's Outlaw Music Festival Tour.

Area dates include June 29 at the Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater on Long Island; June 30 at the PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, and July 4 at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion in Camden. The big July 4 show includes Maren Morris and Mavis Staples. It's Nelson's famed 4th of July Picnic.

“This year's Outlaw Music Festival Tour promises to be the biggest and best yet with this lineup of legendary artists,” said Nelson is a statement. “I am thrilled to get back on the road again with my family and friends playing the music we love for the fans we love.”

It's a show for the ages. Nelson is 91, Dylan is 82, and Plant, former lead singer of Led Zeppelin, is 75. The tour is partly presented by the Jersey-based Keith Wortman and Blackbird Presents.

Other area shows include July 6 at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion in Camden, and Aug. 18, at Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater on Long Island.

The all-female Barbie Land Sinfonietta, conducted by Tony Award-winning producer Macy Schmidt, will play music accompanying the film.

The show is the Basie's annual fundraising gala. The Pretenders released the new album “Relentless” last September, and it features Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood with Chrissie Hynde and the band. Classics include “Stop Your Sobbing,” “Kid,” “Brass in Pocket” and more. The group is also opening several dates for the Foo Fighters on their upcoming stadium tour.

Daryl Hall and Elvis Costello

Hall, half of Hall and Oates, and Costello are coming through the area with shows July 16 at Radio City Music Hall in New York, and July 18 at the PNC Bank Arts Center. Charlie Sexton opens.

Perhaps it's not so unexpected. Hall is in a legal battle with Oates over the latter's attempt to sell his half of their songwriting rights, and Hall and Costello did team up for a single “The Only Flame in Town” 40 years ago.

“It’s fantastic to be able to rekindle a musical relationship,” said Hall in a statement. “Get ready for lots of great music.”

Go: Daryl Hall and Elvis Costello, July 16, Radio City Music Hall, 1260 Sixth Ave., New York, starting at $90; msg.com. Also July 18; PNC Bank Arts Center, Holmdel, starting at $70; livenation.com.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band

The Boss —and the E Street Band -- are rolling again.

“We're back!” said Bruce Springsteen moments after the E Street Band's tour relaunched March 19 at the Footprint Center in Phoenix. Springsteen had postponed the band's shows for the rest of the year in September as he battled peptic ulcer disease.
