America's Old Wild West

Saddle up for an adventure to America’s Old Wild West – the Black Hills of South Dakota. Rugged hills covered with pine forests, grasslands with herds of pronghorn and buffalo, desert canyons with dramatic rock formations, cowboy songs and Native American legends – this is the romance of the Old West that still lives on. A special feature will be a four night stay at the historic Custer State Park Game Lodge.
