Mt. Rushmore 2026 - This tour went above and beyond what we expected, absolutely worth the price we paid!! Our guide, Paula, was knowledgeable about all the sites we visited. I loved the little tidbits of information she gave. We had two children with us and she made sure they were included in all the fun! Buffalo, donkeys, prairie dogs, antelope, deer, we saw it all! Absolutely one of the best tours I’ve taken, so glad we chose them! Our guide, Paula, was the best! She was kind, easygoing and so accommodating to our needs! Thanks again Paula!

Amazing views and amazing guidance! - This tour was breathtaking and absolutely worth the money! Our tour guide, Paula, was extremely knowledgeable about geographical features as well as history and cultural information of the area. She was very attentive and accommodating to all of our family members as well that range in ages from 9 to 73. There is no better way to take in the views…. And man did she take us to all of the views! Paula was incredible and really went above and beyond to ensure that we had the best experience. A perfect way to spend the first full day in the area, so that you also can get accommodated with the locations and where you may want to visit next.

100% Satisfied Customer!!! - We had an incredible time on our tour with Scott! We had only a limited time to be in the Black Hills and Custer State Park, and we never could have seen everything and learned all the history, trying to do it all by ourselves. The tour was worth every penny! And Scott took us to the best picture spots and took pictures of us, as well, in those spots; so we will have awesome memories for years to come. We highly recommend this tour!

A Great Day - I did the Mt Rushmore/Crazy Horse Tour on February 17th. I really appreciate that they went ahead with the tour despite me being the only person. It was hard to find a tour for that day as most companies wanted a minimum of two people and the ones that didn’t were very high in price. Thankfully I found these guys through Reddit who happen to offer tours for Solo Travellers My guide Scott was great, I’ve wanted to see Mt Rushmore for a long time so it was great to finally see it both from distance through a tunnel and up close at the site. This was a great way to tick this off my bucket list. I didn’t know much about Crazy Horse or the surrounding areas of Mt Rushmore, so it was interesting to learn about that on the tour Overall, this experience was unforgettable and thankfully it wasn’t cloudy that day!

Great tours. They need a good customer service person. - Since there were 18 of us, we customized our tour to fit our group of 9 adults, 5 teens, 3 children and 1 infant. So we appreciated the opportunity to do that. The sites of the Black Hills are amazing and our tour guides were amazing and knowledgeable. Our tour (broken into two half days) covered Mt. Rushmore, Iron Mountain Road, Crazy Horse, Sylvan Lake, Needles Highway, Custer State Park including Wildlife Loop and Bison Center, Coolidge General Store and Coolidge Lookout. Our guides were all knowledgeable and helpful. Booking was more difficult than necessary because electronic payment options were not available. -I booked in February and had to wire the money. -I confirmed booking of our tour in March since I had not received a paid invoice or anything similar. I was advised the payment was received and the booking confirmed. On the morning of the first tour date I found out that the booking person thought I hadn’t paid and cancelled our trip. Thus, we had to wait about 90 minutes for him to come up with one driver and one van which required one of our group to drive their personal vehicle to accommodate our group. Open Top did reimburse for 1/2 that day. For our second day we had two vehicles and two great drivers. However, the vehicles provided were not appropriate for our group. They should have been confirmed the day before but the driver who was assigned to contact me had the wrong phone number. So the tour people are great, the administration leaves a lot to be desired.
