My XO Adventures and those involved in creating this tour are honored to welcome you to the Pine Ridge Reservation. This area is often overlooked by those coming to the Black Hills and Badlands. We aim to connect you directly with local artists, storytellers, and exhibits that tell the story of the Lakota People. The benefits of this tour are for all involved. You'll receive a greater understanding of Lakota history, a direct connection to outstanding and sacred art, and the ability to impact the residents of Pine Ridge positively.

Your tour of Pine Ridge Reservation is designed to encourage and promote local artists and entrepreneurs. A major obstacle for local artists is getting their products to market.
