Private Sundowner Dinner in Grand Teton National Park — Luxury Sunset Picnic from Jackson Hole
Choose a sunset over the Tetons instead of a dining room: a private chauffeur, a field-prepared safari-style meal, and a sundowner cocktail set against granite peaks. Perfect for celebrations, this curated picnic brings comfort and quiet spectacle together.
The Experience
Before You Go
Dress in layers
Evenings cool quickly near the Tetons—pack a warm jacket and an extra layer to stay comfortable during sunset and after dark.
Bring insect repellent
Field dining near rivers and wetlands can attract mosquitoes; carry repellent and consider a lightweight head net if you're sensitive.
Confirm dietary needs early
Menus are customizable but require advance notice—submit allergies or restrictions when booking to ensure a seamless meal.
Plan for park entry fees
Grand Teton entrance fees are typically separate from the tour price—have your park pass or cash/card ready.

Conservation Note
Operators follow Leave No Trace principles—minimizing campfire impacts and packing out waste—and visitors are encouraged to respect wildlife distances and park rules.
Jackson Hole’s ranching era shaped access routes and homesteads; the modern park grew through early 20th-century conservation efforts that protected the Teton range and valley.
