Good time - We had such a good time. Rick was very knowledgeable about the park and the animals. We saw lots of bison, some pronghorn, prairie dogs, and various birds. Lots of great nature pictures were taken on this as well.

Lot's of Buffalo and their babies! Excellent! - The tour and tour guide David were absolutely amazing! We did the 10:00 today. It lasted just a little over 2 hours and we were right in the thick of a large buffalo family and so many other animals. It was a really great experience thanks to David's experience and knowledge of where to find the buffalo! Recommend to anyone! Good time of year too because the babies were very young with some only a day old!

Great Jeep Tour - Favorite part of the tour was the drive up Needles Point. Our guide Jeff was excellent. So much great information about the history of the area. He answered all our questions and was very good and sharing personal experiences we could relate too. This was well worth the money. It ended up being a private tour since no other parties signed up. We were able to see some Bison but there were not a lot out that day.

Best way to see Custer Park - This was a wonderful way to see Custer Park. Our guide was terrific! He was insightful and showed us things we would never have discovered on our own. I highly recommend this trip for anyone who wants to relax and enjoy the scenery.

Awesome Day - We lucked out with a private tour which made it more comfortable to speak and move about comfortably. You can’t beat the open back experience of being in a Jeep Gladiator.
