What To Expect

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.
2
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.

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.

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!

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.

We enjoyed Rapid City and the trip to Mt Rushmore. We loved our tour guide and he was full of stories and helpful hints. I really like Crazy Horse more...

First time to Mt. Rushmore and we had a tour booked via Grayline to visit the major sites in the Black Hills. And what a great expereince, our tour guide, Trisha, was knowledgable, kept up good conversation, very good humor and helped us learn new things for each place she took us too. We had enough time to take pictures, get food, see shows and was always there with the bus when it was time to head on out. So thank you Grayline tours for have a great bus driver and overall good person.

We used Grayline Tours and were not disappointed. From the time we boarded until we got dropped off it was first rate. Our tour guide was very informative and because our group was small (only 21) we had some bonuses by seeing things not on the itinerary. The time flew by and didn't seem like 9 hours. We started off going to Mt Rushmore, which was amazing. The breakfast that was included was good. Afterwards we went to Keystone to drop people off for the 1880 Train Ride. We didn't want to do that so we went to Hill City and had free time there. When our group met up with us, we headed to CrazyHorse Museum, which was unbelievable. From there on to Custer State Park which was gorgeous. Our bus barely fit thru the tunnels and stayed on all wheels thru the pigtail turns. We saw very few animals until the last minute when leaving the park a few buffalo were hiding under a tree...yes I know they are big but they can blend in so well. It was an experience that only a tour bus can provide because if we did this on our own we could never have learned so much. I would definitely recommend this for first time visitors.
