It's a wonderful experience for family, friends, couples or singles who want to experience a steam locomotive . If you have time for the ride and want to experience a relaxing peaceful ride on a train while in South Dakota hop aboard the 1880 train and get a history lesson.

We thoroughly enjoyed our day out with Duane our guide from Dave's World Tours made us feel like family from the moment we met him. He got to our campsite early and had a plan for the day but we could alter the plan anyway we wanted to, but our goal was to get a complete overview of the highlights of the area so that the rest of our trip we could focus on places we want to go back to and spend more time at. We also brought our bicycles with us and Duane made sure we knew how to catch the Mickelson bike trail, which is previously a railroad route. Since we are at Mount Rushmore & Custer, SD in the off season, we had many opportunities to pull over to walk thru tunnels and get great photo ops without a concern about parking or being a hazard. We highly recommend Dave's World Tours. We also found out they do airport shuttles and bike drop offs/pick ups. Our fee included our admission to all the parks we visited and we were dropped off at the "front door" of each monument. If we wanted to spend more time (usually an hour)or less we just texted Duane and he was there in less than 5 minutes. We cannot say enough good things about our day with Duane with Dave's World Tours!

Dave's World Tours is by far the best tour company I have ever used. Please consider them when…read moremaking plans to visit the area. Dave, the owner called a day prior to my scheduled tour day to make sure I knew exactly what would take place during my tour. Joe, my tour guide who I now consider a friend showed up on time and we hit it off immediately. He told me that it was MY tour and if there was anything I wanted to do along the way, all I had to do was ask. Joe, with a Law Enforcement and Park Ranger background helped make him the perfect tour guide. Being a long time resident he knows the area as well as anybody around. His knowledge of Mt. Rushmore and Custer State Park made the days events come to life. Doing a selfguided tour would have been so much less than what Joe made it. I can't thank him enough for making the day so special for me. When we stopped for lunch several people approached him to say hello. These were his friends. Joe is a mainstay in the community. His pride and enthusiam about the area shines through. If you can't tell by now, I highly recommend Dave's World Tours. You will not regret your time in their caring hands.

If you're in town, all they ask for is a tip, so you can pay whatever you think is right. They also go out of town from what I've gathered though, so you're not locked inside Sturgis. If you ever need a ride, Viking Shuttle is the best service you could ask for!

Pictures really do not prepare you for how massive this mountain carving actually is in person. The scale is unbelievable, and learning that it has been actively worked on since 1948 makes it even more fascinating. What surprised me most was how much there is to do besides just looking at the mountain. The museums, cultural exhibits, artwork, and history throughout the memorial made the experience feel much deeper and more meaningful. You can tell there is a huge focus on honoring Native American culture and preserving history, which made the visit feel educational as well as visually incredible. We also highly recommend doing the bus tour to get closer to the carving because it really helps you understand the size and detail of the project. The views from the property are beautiful, and there are so many great photo opportunities everywhere you look. If you are visiting the Black Hills or heading to Mount Rushmore, this is absolutely worth adding to your itinerary. It ended up being one of the most memorable places we visited in South Dakota, and I would definitely go back again. Check out our videos on our socials @reessroots
