The XO is a symbol for love. For us, it’s what we put into everything we offer. We know how important it is, and the experience of travel is something we feel passionate about. We hope you do too – XO!
Who is My XO Adventures?
My XO Adventures is owned and operated by Daniel Milks. It is an independent travel company that creates experiential travel through many relationships and partners all over the world. Each tour is studied and created with the intent of opening the minds of our guests to new cultural experiences. My XO Adventures understands the power travel has to connect one another in ways unexpected.
What does My XO Adventures specialize in?
We have a knack for customizing group travel experiences. This means our offerings are geared towards groups of 12 or less. All Black Hills and Badlands Adventures are private tours. Our experiences are created with a theme in mind and often include entertainment, arts, culinary experiences or a specific group minded goal.
Is My XO Adventures a Travel Agency?
No, not in the traditional sense of the word. My XO Adventures is a Tour Operator Based in South Dakota and Licensed, Insured and Bonded in the State of Florida to offer customized hand-crafted tours all over the world. We are not limited to any particular brand, but we do have our favorites!
Why Is My XO Adventures different?
Good question! The company was born with the intention of creating powerful travel experiences that we all feel proud to offer to our guests. We aren’t the largest travel brand out there and we don’t try to be. The team at My XO Adventures has known each other and worked together all over the globe for years. We believe in each of our Adventures and the impact it can have on our guests. Offerings are approached with open discussion and only approved if we feel extremely confident that it aligns with our brand and will exceed guest expectations.
Does My XO Adventures offer exclusive charters or buyouts?
As of now, we do not. Charters can be a risky and costly business to get into. Companies that charter ships are locked into contracts costing millions of dollars that cater only to a specific group making it a gamble for a company and therefore a risk to the guest. Other companies offering only buyouts or charters often solicit investors promising a return as well as overcommit to vendors. This can have devastating consequences. It’s our personal philosophy that the entire concept of travel be based on the expansion of the mind through cultural immersion and experience.
Can I travel as a single?
Of course! Many of our travelers are singles. For information and rates on singles, please email [email protected].
Are My XO Adventures groups escorted?
Yes, yes and yes. Every group will have a My XO Adventures representative present. Many, if not most times Daniel, the owner of My XO Adventures will be present. We care about what we offer and want someone who cares there with you to make the trip extra special or take care of a potential issue on the spot.
Do I need a passport and Visa to travel with My XO Adventures?
