Description

My XO Adventures believes The Badlands can be a wonderful experience for your senses, and there are a lot of stories to be told about the park. It's also abundant with wildlife, but you've got to know where to go. 
We have walked, crawled, climbed, and taken the back roads through the park to find places we know you'll love. This is not a strenuous journey and is suited for all ages. We encourage you to check out our Google Reviews for My XO Adventures online to see what kind of experience you'll enjoy by coming along with us.  We take care of the details and may even have some surprises for you along the way.

Every day is different, and we love what we do. We explore the Badlands, not just tour them. Learn about the history, wildlife, fossils, geological shapes, and sacred places. Commonly missed and extraordinary places are where we go.

About operator:

My XO Adventures was created with the curious and adventuresome in mind. Daniel Milks is the owner and has spent most of his travel experience abroad, recently relocating to the Black Hills of South Dakota. We focus on wildlife, history, culture, ecology, and geology. 
Your reasons for choosing Southwest South Dakota could vary - but we're willing to bet Mount Rushmore brought you here. While Mount Rushmore is a marvel of engineering, it is only a tiny part of the story.

We feel privileged to be your host and are excited to reveal a greater understanding of not only the monuments and memorials but also the people and places of this land.
It has been a pleasure, joy, and continuous journey to explore and understand the Black Hills, Badlands, Greater South Dakota, and the Indigenous people that inhabit this part of the world. We feel it is essential to acknowledge the Lakota people and our closest neighbors, the Oglala Lakota. Their contribution as caretakers, storytellers, protectors, and beauty cannot be understated. 

You'll find out quickly that our tours are conducted by guides passionate about the Black Hills. Our guiding services are fun, casual, informative, light-hearted, and fascinating. We've been honored with the Great Place Award for 2021 & 2022. Thank you, South Dakota Tourism Industry, for recognizing our genuine efforts to think big and make a long-lasting positive mark on our community.
