I am handicapped and use an electric mobility scooter. I was afraid that we wouldn’t be able to do the tours but we contacted Rich the Owner and he was extremely helpful and accommodating. They had a van with a lift that loaded the scooter. We had Kevin as our Guide on all 3 days. Kevin was fantastic. He arrived on time to pick us up. Loaded and unloaded the scooter at every stop. Kevin’s knowledge was amazing. He filled us in on every nuance of the areas we toured. We toured Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, Crazy Horse, the Badlands and Wall. Great trip.

Howdy John - I'm pleased you enjoyed your time in the Hills. There is so much to see and do and I'm glad you had the time to explore. And thank you for your kind review of touring with Kevin. He is one of our best and enjoys sharing the history of the region. I hope you can return and tour with us again in the future. Be Well - Rich FYI to all - Open-Top-Tours offers mobility impaired tours to all of the region. Our Sprinter van has a power lift for wheelchairs, individual leather seating for an additional 5 guests and a 10 foot sliding top . . . opens and closes for your comfort and viewing.
