Excellent Day I would re-live in a SECOND! - Breakfast was excellent, especially when considering it was in a tin pie-pan. Stick to your ribs biscuit and gravy, sausage, cowboy pancakes made by strapping young men and coffee. Time to roam around the little town-front. Chuck loaded us in and maneuvered the HUGE tour-bus like a PRO. He gave a commentary the whole way except on the return leg (which was perfect, we needed some rest). We saw the wooden bridges engineered to be as strong as steel, toured the Black Hills, twisted our way up/down pig-tail bridges, appreciated the design of the roads including the tunnels that highlight Mt. Rushmore, visited the landmark with time to sketch/appreciate/hike, saw wildlife along the way, lunch at the lodge with time to hit a festival (the Buffalo Roundup was the day before), visited Crazy Horse with time to explore it, breeze through Hill City and made our way back in the perfect timing for the music show and chuckwagon dinner theater. >>>Chuck stopped at PERFECT locations for snap shots and played photographer.

Loved it - Great time, very knowledgeable driver who was very entertaining as well. Food was great, loved the whole experience. Very efficient outfit. Bus was clean and comfortable.

Excellent tour! - Tour Date: 9/22/24 I recommend this tour if it's your first time visiting the Black Hills and Mount Rushmore. We had enough time to go around each stops to sightsee. Dan, the guide was funny, knowledgeable and stopped at the places where we can't miss any photo ops. The other sites included in the tour are Fort Hays (for the cowboy breakfast- pancakes were great; chuckwagon dinner and the Dances with Wolves film set- it's free!); Custer State Park (I wished we saw more bison though) for lunch; Sylvan Lake- it's beautiful and the narrow tunnels including the Needle Eye tunnel where we wondered if our bus would fit- it did! The chuckwagon dinner was just okay but the entertainment and hospitality more than made up for it. Dan and the band were excellent singers and entertainers! Highly-recommended!

A great experience! - Joe was a great driver and tour guide with lots of good stories. Sceneries were breathtaking, especially the two memorials exhibited the human spirit. The chuck wagon food was okay, could be better! But it was a good experience of the old days. The show after dinner was very good, the musicians were excellent, especially the lady. It was a memorial experience!

Amazing - seeing all of the wonderful sights that we would have never been able to see in one day. We did not have to drive. Our tour guide had alot of knowlege of all the sights.

Amazing - Spending time at Mt. Rushmore, driving through the Black Hills, going through the tunnels safely. The driver was exceptional and very accommodating to all of the riders. A beautiful experience. God bless you, Pat

Driver of the bus Bill Martin was exceptional. He made the experience a time to o remember. Thank him and entire - The whole thing experience was great. The driver and entire staff made us feel welcome and want to thank all who made it happen

Worthwhile Tour - Great tour! Saw so much. Our guide, Bill, made it a great day for us. If your time is limited, this is a great tour to see lots.

Great Drive - It was great not having to drive the route to see all the amazing things we did. The waiting gaps before starting and returning waiting for the dinner and show to start were definitely too long and really made the day feel exhausting.

Almost perfect except for Breakfast and dinner and the dinner show - Loved, loved the drive through the Black Hills, Custer State Park and to Mount Rushmore. Chuck, the guide was terrific with lots of information about the sights. I would definitely not recommend taking the longer version of this tour that adds on breakfast and dinner and a cowboy show. Those items were really not good.
