This is our favorite tour! We care about you, your experience, and your time in South Dakota. You'll be taken to special locations where animals congregate during the setting sun. As you enjoy the wildlife of the Badlands, we'll take care of any photos you wish. The "Blue Hour" begins after sunset and continues for an hour, highlighting the wild formations with the bright blue and orange sky. Next, we'll take you to the night viewing area in the park at a location only My XO Adventures knows. We'll see planets, shooting stars, and the Milky Way Galaxy. Our highly skilled guide will capture night photos and share them at the end of the tour, ensuring you have great memories of your experience.

  • Sage Creek Wilderness Area, South Dakota, United States
    We know the best way to view the park during sunset. We'll take you through the Sage Creek Wilderness area to see all types of formations, with the sunset at our backs. This makes the photography of wildlife, shapes, and shadows amazing. It's our favorite tour area, and you'll understand why.
    60 minutes
  • Hay Butte Overlook, Interior, South Dakota, United States
    One of the most impressive views of the Badlands and often missed. We'll be sure to stop here for photos, and maybe even set up for a viewing of the sunset.
    30 minutes
  • Badlands Wall, South Dakota, United States
    We'll set up for the beautiful night sky at a location only My XO Adventures knows. Our tour includes blankets, comfortable mats, and pillows to see as much of the sky as possible. Laying on the cozy mats, we'll see planets, shooting stars, and the Milky Way Galaxy. Our guide will take night photos and share them with you at the end of the tour. We can even show you how to take them using your phone. Red light flashlights are provided to prevent any white light from interfering with your night vision! We also provide a chart of the night sky showing the constellations and satellites that zoom overhead. Truly a unique experience for adults and kids. Badlands National Park offers clarity that few people in the United States enjoy. Over 7,500 stars are visible on any given night.
    60 minutes
  • Pinnacles Overlook, South Dakota, United States
    We’ll enter Badlands National Park at the magic time just before sunset. Folding chairs will be brought out at the perfect location for viewing. After, we’ll head to the Amphitheater for night sky viewing with telescope and watch the stars light up the sky.

  • Wall, SD 57790, USA
    Bigfoot Pass Overlook is named after Chief Bigfoot, who led his tribe while being chased by the U.S. Army through the Badlands until they reached the sight of Wounded Knee, where men, women, and children were massacred. Chief Bigfoot was known for his diplomatic skills, but sadly, that didn't save him and his tribe from genocide at the hands of the U.S. Government and Col. James Forsyth.
    60 minutes
  • Big Badlands Overlook, South Dakota, United States
    Just moments away from our secluded location for night sky viewing. Soon, our comfortable viewing area will be set up, eyes will be wide open and the show begins!

Complete waste of a lot of money. Could have hired a car and done our own tour. Guide was a replacement for what we understood to be a replacement of the guide we actually hired. Looked like he just called a friend to drive us out as he was unavailable. E should have been a professional guide with a license. We were driven to a public observation presentation that was open to anyone so they could explain the badlands. Don’t know why it cost $1000 for this tour. Ridiculous and excessive for what was given for the experience. Don’t waste your money and just rent a car. Viator is not screening clients and just trying to look for a profit using anyone!

This was a wonderful tour. Our tour guide, Daniel, was great. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. He made sure we got to see and do all that we expected. We saw prairie dogs, big horn sheep, a coyote, buffalo, and antelope. The night sky was awesome. We never realized how many satellites were in our skies. Daniel had water and snacks for us. Thank you for such a rich experience.

Fantastic guide, shared interesting facts about the badlands. Wonderful experience watching the stars lying flat on mats provided by Daniel. He was caring, respectful, polite, professional and a lot of fun. 100% worth the cost! Jan and Deb
