We only had a few days in the Black Hills, so we wanted to make sure we saw all the sights. We chose this tour, as it included breakfast, Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, the 1880's train, and a few other stops along the way. The tour was 9 hours long. The bus would take us to each place and tell... More

Spent a very enjoyable day on this tour. We were fortunate that the weather was kind to us as it had been raining steadily the day before.

Thank you for posting your tour experience! With a new itinerary this year, it is great to hear that your stops at Mt. Rushmore with the Monumental Breakfast, the 1880 Train, Crazy Horse and Custer State Park with Iron Mountain Road were paced well and that you enjoyed Dan's narrative of the area. At least one good thing about the... More

We visited South Dakota in August of 2010 with our two kids (12 & 15). This tour was great! They picked us up right at our hotel in Rapid City. Then for the next nine ours we sat back and enjoyed the ride. The driver was fantastic and explained everything as we went. The single complaint I had during the... More

Thank you for your comments! We have changed our meal selection in 2011. We will now include the Monumental Breakfast at the Mount Rushmore National Memorial. This will include biscuits & gravy, hash browns, eggs, sausage or bacon with a drink (coffee, hot tea, hot chocolate or a fountain drink). This will give you more time at Mt. Rushmore then... More

The overall tour, bus, and driver were excellent. However, it was not until the bus arrived in Keystone that the driver, in response to a rider's question, revealed that the "Needles Highway" was not included in the tour. While not a "deal-breaker" for most, it could be of importance to those with no driving capabilities yet who consider this of... More
