Walking talking tours. - The walking tour information was so helpful for our expanding knowledge of the walking through Mount Rushmore. Having the opportunity to take the tour in my time helped immensely especially when you're not as young as the fast pace younger people that were there. Having the information start on its own was amazing and really unique not knowing that it was going to happen. But when they gave you information it was clif hanging information that filled you with knowledge that you never new.

Breath taking views!! - Simply amazing!! It was awesome seeing the view in person. Always seen Mt Rushmore on tv but never in person. Well worth the trip and the self guided walking audio tour gives you lots of information and you can do it in your own time. I would definitely do it again.

Great audio tour - We liked this audio tour over the official tour provided by the park. Honestly felt this tour explained more about the artist than the official tour.

Enrich Your Journey - Audio was informative and engaging as we traveled through South Dakota. The audio enriched each destination with historical, cultural and up to date information. The speaker holds your attention, has a delightful speaking voice and an appropriate sense of humor. We arrived at each destination with "Park Ranger" background. The audio is a must to "seeing America first" and we look forward to traveling with our Viator audio again.
