The highlight of my trip, biking in the Badlands. Amazing scenery, fresh air, sunshine and exercise. I was able to enjoy the freedom of the desert, knowing that the biking equipment was good and that regular checks at viewpoints along the way ensured that the experience was safe. I would love to do this tour again some time.

Kevin and Joel were excellent. Tour included Mt. Rushmore, Needles, Badlands, and Devil's Tower. Kevin's wife made wonderful turkey sandwiches for lunch.

My husband and I had a wonderful time on the two private bike tours we booked through The Black Hills Tour Company. Our first ride was through the Badlands and our second was on the Mickelson Trail through the Black Hills. Steve was our amazing guide. He knew so much about the area and the best routes to take. He made us both feel comfortable with his kind and easy going personality. We were absolutely in awe of the beauty we were treated to on both days. South Dakota is a magical place. We would highly recommend The Black Hills Tour Company - they made our experience a true gift.

Carson was an excellent guide. He made sure that we had all of the support we needed, stopped at interesting places before and after the biking, and gave us lots of information about the geology and wildlife of the area. I highly recommend this trip for anyone who wants to truly experience the Badlands up close!

Riding bikes through Badlands NP is an excellent way to experience this beautiful nature. Kevin was an excellent guide explaining the history and evolution of the rock structures. He also spotted wildlife much faster than us because he knows where they roam. He also gave us tips on various other sights to see in the area. Kevin was great!! The bike ride was 23 miles up and down hills and sometimes flat. Not too difficult but still challenging. Lunch and snacks and water were provided. Overall great experience we would highly recommend!

Randy was great and I had fun riding an ebike in Badlands! We started at pinnacles entrance and got to the visitors center, which was about 22miles!

EVERY part was my favorite part! Kevin was a great tour guide sharing so much information about the area surrounding the badlands as well as the badlands on our drive out. He provided maps and additional info about the ride we were going to do so we could be prepared. The bike was TOP NOTCH. Kevin and Volanda (his MIL from Australia, who joined him for assistance) accompanied us in the van and leap-frogged us to each scenic view stop along the 22 mile route. They made sure our equipment was still in top-notch shape, that we were hydrated, that we were feeling okay, and to provide tips and information for the distance to the next stop. At the end, they made us a great lunch. The return drive was filled with more info about the area. He knew the answers to all of our questions! We were with a small group - Kevin and Melina took the care to confirm everyone was COVID vaccinated and requested we wear masks in the van for extra precaution, which I really appreciated! We lucked out and had perfect weather, but regardless, this was an awesome way to see the badlands and get some exercise while we were at it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Our bike ride through the Badlands was amazing! Kevin was an excellent guide, very informative and provided a great experience for us. I would say this is the best way to see the Badlands!

Kevin was AWESOME! He created customized experiences that were perfect for our family, had great equipment, and provided delicious food and drink. He knows the best local spots, gave great advice and recommendations, and went “above and beyond” to make our tour a great experience. Best of all, he was extremely flexible and friendly and great at sharing his extensive knowledge of local history, wildlife, and geology in an entertaining and engaging way. We had a blast!

Amid our cross-country road trip, my partner and I wanted to visit Badlands NP, but knew that we only had one day to do so. To make sure we had the best time possible, got some great local beta, and had a great time (with no painful research and planning on our end!) we contacted Melinda and Kevin with Black Hills Tour Company to schedule a tour of the Badlands by bike! And we were very happy we did that. Kevin was a great tour guide who was super fun to spend the day with and he can also share some cool facts about the area, the animals, and the surrounding geology. If you think a bike tour through the Badlands might be a little rough (or that you might be a little out of shape), booking a tour with Black Hills Tour Company would be a great option, because our tour guide Kevin drove a support van with water and snacks and other bike essentials. My traveling partner hit a little wall a bit into our tour, and Kevin came to the rescue with some recovery tips and electrolytes and we were able to finish the day strong with his aid! all in all a great day and we were so grateful to have Kevin to make sure we had a great time!
