Great Tour, Well worth it - Great experience. Shane is a great tour guide. He is very knowledgeable of the history of Mt Rushmore, Iron Mtn Tunnels and introduced an app to the group that outlined the various constellations. Shane, thank you for the experience.

Mt Rushmore at night! - We were lucky to share a very moving lighting experience at Mt Rushmore. The tour guide was very knowledgeable of the area, and astute in the history of Mt Rushmore. All of which made for a very memorable night.

Great tour - The lighting of the president's was very moving. Shane was very informative on our tour. It was unfortunate that we had a full moon so we couldn't star gaze. But other than that we all enjoyed our tour.

Very patriotic and some inside information with this trip - Great experience, but awful booking through Viator. If doing this again, I’d book directly through the vendor. I don’t know who with at is, but Googling it would probably get you an answer.

Halfway Excellent - I was a little torn about writing this review but I feel it must be done. I booked this tour mainly so that we would not have to drive out to Mount Rushmore and back after dark with the tunnel drive as an added bonus. The ride out to Mount Rushmore was very nice . The bus was very comfortable, and the driver shared some things along the way. It was awesome being dropped off right at the front entrance and we were given information on the monument and offered a short tour by the driver. As we had been out earlier in the day, we did not take advantage of that. The ceremony was beautiful and having the bus at the exit was perfect. That is where the five star portion of the trip ended. Sadly, the bus broke down as we were driving out of the monument area. The driver contacted the company and another bus was sent out. by the time it arrived, it was quite late, with no time to do the second portion of the trip. I understand that those were circumstances out of anyone’s control. However, I feel that some follow up from the owner with a formal apology and the offer of a partial refund was in order. With the excellent contact I had with Rich leading up to the tour, I truly expected that we would hear from him following this unfortunate turn of events. Because we were not able to do the second part of the trip, I cannot review that. I can say that the ride out was nice and comfortable and I likely would book again if we return to the area.

Not worth it!! - Our guide never introduced himself to us. Sure wasn’t very friendly! We sat on the bus for 25 minutes waiting for a twosome before he decided to call them, only to learn they weren’t coming. Not sure why he waited so long to determine this. The stops were pretty boring and we were also never offered bottled water that the description said was included. Our unnamed driver then insisted on sitting for a half hour in a lot until it got dark so we could try to see stars even though it was clear to all the passengers that it was too cloudy of an evening for any stars! Guess he didn’t want to get us back a few minutes early. This trip was definitely not worth the $$.
