Total for two adults

4,381.86 USD

Dated planning estimate; not a guaranteed final payable total.

312.99 USD per person per day (14 person-days)

Limits of these examples

November 10–16, 2026 estimate from Kalispell, outside the park; flights excluded. Ordinary and studio roles reuse Blacktail Queen Studio; Kintla Ridge Suite is the separate-bedroom option at Switchback Suites. Six-night pretax public totals $877/$979 are modeled with 8% lodging tax and $4 per room-night assessment, giving $971.16/$1,081.32. Whether that assessment is already included is ambiguous; subtract $24 once if included, never duplicate it. Tax incidence, refundability, deposits, card acceptance and final payable are unknown. All 42 meals/drinks are external; no breakfast, kitchen, tour-snack or airport-shuttle credit. Ground’s $1,596 uses published airport, meal-transfer and Whitefish allowances, not a meter quote or ceiling. Tour $642.90 includes $430 fare, $12.90 guide tax and $200 nonresident admission; standard entry is already included. November 12’s meal/transfer sequence assumes the 13:00 tour with a 15-minute buffer. Only a condition-dependent West Glacier winter drive is selected, not Logan Pass or an East Glacier crossing. Carry bags before check-in/after checkout; no storage, early/late room access, daylight or accessibility guarantee. Roads, weather, dispatch, seats and flights require checking.
