Mount Rushmore National Memorial (13000 SD-244 Hwy, Keystone, SD 57751) has a dedicated bus and RV parking area inside the main parking structure, managed by the National Park Service. Buses pay a separate vehicle entrance fee. The parking structure is approximately a 0.4-mile walk from the main viewing terrace via the Avenue of Flags.
Buses approach from US-16A through Keystone — SD-244 sees heavy congestion during peak summer season (June through August), so build extra time into your arrival window and confirm current fee schedules on the NPS Mount Rushmore parking page before your visit.
Crazy Horse Memorial has a large designated bus and RV parking lot on the south side of the property. Buses enter off US-16/385. The memorial charges a per-person admission plus a group vehicle fee for buses — call ahead at 605-545-9120 to confirm current group rates before your visit, as pricing is subject to change.
The orientation center, museum, and viewing terrace are all accessible from the bus parking area, making it an easy full-group stop on a Black Hills itinerary.
The single hardest week to find a bus anywhere in western South Dakota is the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, held annually in August — the 2026 rally ran August 7–16, and the 2027 rally is scheduled for August 6–15. During rally week, buses serving the entire Black Hills region are booked out months in advance and prices are at their highest. Peak summer season (June through August) is also busy overall because of Mount Rushmore and Black Hills tourism.
Prom season in April and May fills party buses fast. Book at least three to six months out for any summer date, and six months or more for rally week.
Here are approximate driving distances from downtown Rapid City: Mount Rushmore — about 25 miles southwest via US-16 and SD-244 (roughly 35–45 minutes, longer in summer traffic). Crazy Horse Memorial — about 35 miles southwest via US-16 (roughly 45–55 minutes). Badlands National Park — about 75 miles southeast via I-90 East (roughly 1 hour 15 minutes).
Custer State Park — about 45 miles south via US-16 (roughly 55–65 minutes). Deadwood — about 45 miles northwest via I-90 and US-14A (roughly 50–60 minutes). Sturgis — about 30 miles northwest on I-90 (roughly 30–40 minutes).
A charter bus handles every mile while your group relaxes and enjoys the scenery.
Yes, and it's one of the most popular uses for charter buses in the Rapid City area! A typical full-day Black Hills tour might include Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial, a drive through Custer State Park's Wildlife Loop Road, and a stop in Keystone or Hill City — all in one itinerary. When you fill out your quote, list your stops in the order you want them and include your estimated time at each location.
A live agent at 605-545-9120 can also help you build a custom multi-stop package around your group's schedule. One bus, one flat rate, and nobody gets separated between stops.
For most Black Hills sightseeing groups, a 15–35 passenger minibus or a 56-passenger charter bus is the right call, depending on your headcount. Minibuses are nimble enough to handle the winding roads on US-16A and SD-244 near Mount Rushmore and are a great fit for groups of 15–35. Full-size motorcoaches handle the same routes and add onboard restrooms, larger luggage bays, and more seating — ideal for larger tour groups.
For a fun night out in Rapid City or Deadwood, a party bus with a built-in bar and LED lighting is a crowd favorite. Rapidcitycharterbuscompany.com lets you compare all of these side by side — just fill out one form to see what's available for your dates!
For most Rapid City trips, book at least three to six months in advance to get the best pricing and the widest vehicle selection. For the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally (August), book six months or more in advance — buses across the entire Black Hills region disappear early for rally week and prices spike significantly as the date approaches. Prom season (April and May) and peak summer tourism (June through August) also book fast.
Waiting until the last minute will almost always mean higher rates, fewer options, or both. Call 605-545-9120 right now to lock in your date!
