Reviews
By far hands down best tour I’ve ever been on. I was on the fence about taking a tour or going off on my own and without a doubt I am so glad I chose My XO Adventure. A 10/10 experience, it literally made my whole trip to SD! Daniel was my guide and is the most wonderful and kind human to spend the day with. He makes you feel so comfortable and is extremely knowledgeable, personable, and thoughtful. He has a passion for what he does and his excitement is contagious! He goes out of his way to make sure your bucket list items are checked off. The sites and wildlife are incredible on their own, but having someone like Daniel to take you to spots you wouldn’t know about and make sure you have the best lighting or views, not to mention providing all the history and details just elevate the experience and take it to a whole new level. Communication with both Amiee and Daniel around the whole process from booking to drop off was exceptional. I would ABSOLUTELY do another tour with them!!
I’ve traveled the world and taken various awesome tours. However Daniel has surpassed all other tours. He was the perfect fit for my 9-year old son and myself. He contacted me a day earlier with alternate plans and ideas which we were open to. I can not say enough about how accommodating he was. Not only did he offer us his deep knowledge of the area he became our personal photographer. Daniel made innumerable stops and turn arounds to ensure us the best views and photographs. Daniel I thank you for the awesome tour! Mrs. Aimee thank you for reaching out and assisting me with finding a suitable location! Anyone looking for the right tour, look no further than My XO Adventures! I promise you will be happy with the purchase.
We had a fantastic day touring the Badlands with Daniel from XO Adventures. He paid close attention to what we were interested in, shared a wealth of fascinating local knowledge, and delivered an outstanding experience from start to finish. Spotting bison was our top priority, and he absolutely made it happen. We visited in late November, so the delicious homemade soup for lunch was the perfect warm-up. Communication beforehand was prompt, clear, and helpful.
