Why take this tour?
You'll begin to love My XO Adventures right from the beginning. We'll take you to the most exciting and lesser-known places in the Black Hills or Badlands. Take in all the beauty, and leave the driving to us. You'll enjoy asking questions and getting answers from a guide who knows this part of the country.
We can choose the serenity of the Badlands, a place of geological wonder and wide open spaces. You'll drive through and around formations of absolute beauty. Learn the Lakota and settler history while being pleasantly surprised by the wildlife moments we experience.
The Black Hills is a place of monuments, beautiful drives, and the Bison. You'll be astounded at Mount Rushmore (Six Grandfathers) and Crazy Horse memorial. In between, we visit one of the largest State Parks in the country, Custer. The Wildlife Loop Road is included in this tour and offers plenty of opportunities to photograph nature at its best.

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.
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.
