If you really want to get to know Native American culture, it\u2019s essential to go beyond the landscapes and statues, and meet the people and experience the culture first-hand. Developed in collaboration with the local communities of the Dakota, this bespoke tour – National Parks and Native Trails of the Dakotas<\/a> – is a first of its kind. We\u2019ll you off the beaten track for a unique and authentic insight into Native American history and culture, all in direct support of indigenous tribal tourism in the United States<\/a>. You\u2019ll meet passionate locals and hear their personal stories, visit four reservations of the Dakotas, and enjoy traditional meals and performances during your visits, all while supporting our Tribal Nations.

Spend the day with the Oglala Lakota Nation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Oglala Lakota Nation<\/a> is one of the seven bands of the Lakota division of the Great Sioux Nation, and the beautiful Pine Ridge Reservation and Badlands are their home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll travel through the iconic Badlands National Park to the Oglala Lakota Living History Village.

Later, we\u2019ll visit the Wounded Knee Memorial, the site of the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre<\/a>. You\u2019ll meet local storyteller Warren Yellow Hair who will recount the event and share personal stories passed down through generations.

Learn about the Rosebud Sioux Tribe<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Rosebud Sioux Tribe<\/a>, properly known as Sicangu Lakota Oyate, are one of the seven tribes of the Lakota Nation. They live in the Rosebud Reservation, known for its Ponderosa Pine forests and grasslands covering the deep valleys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll meet a Local Specialist at the Rosebud Reservation for a special MAKE TRAVEL MATTER\u00ae\u202fExperience. You\u2019ll learn all about their culture and daily life while supporting their economy of tribal tourism. We\u2019ll then head to the Turtle Creek Crossing Supermarket. Here you\u2019ll taste traditional Lakota foods and learn about Rosebud’s important food sovereignty projects from leading community members. You\u2019ll end the day at Sinte Gleska University where you\u2019ll witness a Star Knowledge Presentation by Lakota elder, Victor Douville. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next day, you\u2019ll learn about the future of the Lakota people with a meaningful Be My Guest experience. We’ll meet Marla C. Bull Bear, Executive Director of Lakota Youth Development. This is a non-profit organisation reclaiming Lakota language, culture and spirituality and supporting local youth. You\u2019ll hear Marla speak and enjoy a delicious meal while witnessing a traditional storytelling performance. You\u2019ll also get to more know about indigenous plant knowledge and taste the treasures of the prairie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, you\u2019ll see the Statue of Dignity, a towering sculpture of a Native woman standing above the Missouri River. It was designed by sculptor Dale Lamphere to honor the cultures of the Lakota and Dakota people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWe hope Trafalgar guests get a good look into what Lakota culture really is, and we hope [they see] that Lakota culture is a deep culture and it is separate from the culture of poverty. We like our Trafalgar visitors to take with them a deeper understanding of who we are as a Lakota person and how we have an understanding of our environment that can help our world. We need to reconnect with Grandmother Earth and live with her and not fight with her and our relatives. We hope they get a chance to understand how we connect with each as relatives and how we embrace everyone as our relatives.\u201d<\/p>\nMarla C. Bull, Executive Director of Lakota Youth Development<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Spanning 2.3 million acres across prairie plains and rolling hills, the reservation is home to bands of the Lakota Nation (the Sihasapa and the Hunkpapa) and the Dakota Nation (Upper and Lower Yanktonai). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here you\u2019ll learn about everyday life on the reservation and hear about the incredible legend of Sitting Bull<\/a>. He was a Hunkpapa Lakota leader who united the Sioux tribes of the North American Great Plains and led years of resistance against the white settlers until his death in 1890. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll also enjoy a fascinating MAKE TRAVEL MATTER\u00ae\u202fExperience, learning how the Lakota and Dakota people use the power of medicinal plants, with wisdom passed down through generations. You\u2019ll even create your own herbal tea using traditional practices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later on, you\u2019ll meet Jennifer Martel, or Wahukaze Nunpa Win, Coordinator of the Sitting Bull Visitor Center.
