Badlands Sunset and Night Sky Adventure

Overview

This is our favorite tour! You never know what you're going to see. An array of animals come out to frolic and pose for beautiful photos during the golden hour.

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!

What To Expect

Sage Creek Wilderness Area

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.

Pinnacles Overlook

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.

Badlands National Park

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.

This was the perfect tour to take in the beauty of the Badlands - Daniel knew just which routes to take and where to stop for stunning vistas and photos. He’d thought of every little detail, including comfy camp chairs, fresh fruit to snack on, and chocolate to watch the stars with! We highly recommend Daniel and My XO Adventures.

Thank you so much for the kind review! I’m glad you enjoyed the extra touches to the tour, and it was such a pleasure to have you as a guest. Maybe I’ll see you in Cuba!
