Riding in a Mercedes Glass-Top Sprinter Van . . . we drive you to Mt Rushmore for a daylight tour. You will learn the history of the monument and experience wonderous views of the 'Hills' through the all glass top.
At dusk you will witness the golden-red sunset over the mountain range and Mt Rushmore. And then the bright white lights come up and illuminate the four faces of the monument.
As we wait for the sky to darken and begin our search of the heavens . . . we offer you a selection of warm beverages to enjoy . . . coffee, tea or hot cocoa along with an assortment of snacks.
*Also available for a $5 cash fee are Potent Potables - Chardonnay and White Zinfendel Wine - Modelo Beer - and if cold weather . . . Peppermint Schnapps to mix with your hot cocoa.
Your guide will teach you new technology to find passing satilites, shooting stars and view the Milky Way.
As we return you will view the lighted monument through the one-way tunnels on Iron Mtn Road. Few get to see this.
