This tour is WORTH IT for the actual bus tour part of it. We had Dan as our tour guide and he was wonderful. We learned so much from him and he was very entertaining and kind. He was very professional in his driving and we felt very safe in his hands. We actually really appreciated the scenic drives because we could just watch and enjoy without my husband or I having to drive, especially on some of the portions where there were steeper drop-offs and we just wanted to take in the views. Needles Highway was stunning. I would recommend this to anyone.
The food was just meh. Breakfast was fine, nothing to write home about. The sausage was actually pretty good. We got back from the bus tour around 5:15ish and then had to wait around Fort Hays until 6:15 to be able to enter the dining room and then until 6:30 to start going through the serving lines. When all was said and done, it was kind of a long time to wait for dinner after a long day on the bus tour. And then the dinner was just average chuckwagon fare. It was good, but not amazing. We stayed so that we could eat but then the music show didn't even start until after dinner, so we left right after we ate because we have three kids under 12 and we were all just too tired.
Overall though, I would still recommend it for the bus tour. I could've done without the meals, but the tour was very awesome.
