Rapid City Tours in Fall

Kelly A, did an excellent job getting us prepared for the trip. Getting to and from the airport. Amber was outstanding with communication before and during our trip. She was very caring and responsive with questions and answers. Jessie was very knowledgeable and interacted with everyone in a personable manner throughout the trip. The entire itinerary was memorable. Faillen (little woman) was a very good presenter. Authentic with her answers to questions. Joe Pulliam presentation was moving as he provided context around “ generational trauma “ and its impact on current day native Americans. It’s difficult to identify one or two items. We throughly enjoyed the total trip ( this was our 6th trip with Collette).

First time in the west and it was a great trip. Lots of bus time and in middle of the shut down but still recommend the tour highly. Yellowstone is the highlight and all the animals especially the buffalo.

Mt. Rushmore and return trip for evening flag lowering was emotional"veteran ". Devils tower were the high lights of the trip. The badlands tour was awesome for natures mysteries. Disappointed about the Kevin Costners event, guide talked mostly about" his " work. Have been to Canada's Head smashing exhibit and ties in with it. The local guide for the wild Bill and Calamity Jane was AWFUL. The Jeep safari ride and driver was awsome. Love seeing bison and prong horn sheep in their natural habitat . The Crazy horse memorial was interesting. The geographic center of the U.S. was unexpected., didn't know that display existed. The hotel was good and pleasantly surprised that we had REAL eggs in the morning. The one diner morning was a pleasant change. Jessie the bus driver was great Amber was misinformed in one town that the places she pointed out to eat were closed on Tuesday, other than that she did a good job keeping us on schedule . Tough to keep a bus load of mostly seniors on schedule. All and all good trip. Love the idea of having a daily schedule of place and time to refer to. Makes down time scheduling much easier. Maybe more time at the primary sites and less time at the secondary sites.

All tours were good. However, we stayed way too long in Badlands. Made three stops for pictures not much change in the scenery. Did not have enough time in deadwood.

Steve Mayer was a great tour guide. Bus driver was excellent. Loved all the things we saw. Mt. Rushmore, Badlands, Custer State Park, Crazy Horse and Devils Tower .i enjoyed staying in one place and taking day trips.

Steve was an excellent tour guide. He knows everything about the entire area. Everything was well organized, the tours highlighted the best of the sights, and the week flew by. I recommend taking the tour when the buffalo roundup is not going on in Custer state park. All of the buffalo were in pens, which was disappointing, although the landscape is gorgeous. We enjoyed the Mount Rushmore lighting ceremony especially. Devils Tower was as unearthly as expected. Even Crazy Horse was so impressive. Steve showed us a movie about the family of sculptors. The Badlands were also impressive. It is a wonderful tour. Highly recommend.
