What To Expect

Fort Hays Old West Town and Dinner Show

The tour package starts at Fort Hays Chuckwagon where you get your all you can eat cowboy breakfast. Nothing better than home made cowboy pancakes, biscuits and gravy, sausage links with a hot cup of coffee to get the day started.

Mount Rushmore National Memorial

The bus departs at 9am and heads for Mount Rushmore! You will have a little over an hour to look around at your own convenience and enjoy the sites and beauty that you came to South Dakota for. We stop here first because Mount Rushmore is at it's best in the morning sun. Gutzon Borglum carved this mountain facing east towards the morning sun and intended it to be viewed this way.

Iron Mountain Road

After leaving Mount Rushmore we will travel along the Iron Mountain Road. A beautiful 17 mile road of breath taking scenery featuring 3 one lane tunnels that perfectly frame Mount Rushmore.

Custer State Park Resort

We stop for lunch inside Custer State Park at the Game Lodge and previous summer White House for president Calvin Coolidge. Try the Buffalo Stew, it's the best you will ever find!

Needles Highway

After lunch we depart for the Needles Hwy. This 14 mile scenic drive is sure to leave you breathless and awe struck at amazing beauty of the Black Hills. Sit back and enjoy the ride and watch the crowd gather around when we drive the bus through the Needles Eye Tunnel. With only inches to spare on each side of the bus you can relish in the fact that you are not the one driving.

Sylvan Lake

Take a rest stop and coffee break at the beautiful Sylvan Lake. This is among the crown jewels of Custer State Park and the beauty within it.

Crazy Horse Memorial

We spend about an hour at Crazy Horse Memorial. You are on your own to spend this time enjoying this piece of history in the making. Upon completion it will be the largest mountain carving in the world! Truly a piece of awe inspiring history being worked on every day.

Fort Hays Old West Town and Dinner Show

The tour package ends back at Fort Hays to include the Chuckwagon Supper and Live Music Show. This chuckwagon meal is sure to leave you with a full belly. The show is a Branson style variety show to include music for all ages to enjoy. Rate the best family entertainment in the Black Hills.

I went on a Bucket List Trip to see Mount Rushmore and this sights of the Black Hills. This tour gave me a whole day and a wonderful overview of the attractions in the area. Things started with a Cowboy Breakfast. The tour bus took us to Mount Rushmore, the Crazy Horse Memorial, and National Parks. In addition, the driver was encyclopedic in his knowledge of local lore, comical in his interesting jokes and stories, and unbelievably skilled at navigating the bus through the plethora or tunnels through the hills. At one point he took a 40 passenger motor coach through a tunnel that left only 3-4 inches of clearance on ether side without a scratch or scare. The day ended 12+ hours later with a Chuckwagon and a rousing Cowboy Band. It is a long day, but well worth it. I highly recommend this as a way to get to know an interesting portion of the world.

My husband and I took this tour June, 2016. It's a great way to see the sights in the Black Hills. It was a full day starting with breakfast and ending with a chuckwagon dinner and cowboy show. Plenty of time to enjoy Mt Rushmore and the Crazy Horse Memorial and the scenery is spectacular. Our tour guide Billy was knowledgeable and clearly enjoyed his job. We definitely got our money's worth. I had booked this tour package over the phone with Clint. It was easy and hassle free. I highly recommend using Mt Rushmore Tours.

We just got back from South Dakota. The piano player was a part of the breakfast (really). We got on the bus and saw Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, Custer State Park, Needles and Crazy Horse. We saw buffalo right up close. We returned to the camp for dinner and a show. The singing group was excellent including someone who was the top performer for all of South Dakota. You can drive to these areas yourself, but the roads are extremely challenging and the tunnels will cause you and others some deep concerns.

Thanks for the review. Yes, our roads up here in the hills are a bit tricky at times! I'm glad that you had a great time on tour and hope you come back and see us again sometime!.
