Loading ...NATIVE AMERICAN INDIAN TOURS
For a holiday with a difference why not try a Native American Indian tour. This type of holiday can be very eco friendly and if you chose a good tour operator as much as 50% of the money you spend goes to the Indian people themselves. You can chose to stay locally and purchase products directly. Some tour operators chose responsible locally based suppliers so that accomodation and food services are locally owned and operated to ensure the money stays locally. Many properties are chosen because they practise responsible tourism methods involving recycling, water use and energy consumption. Guides and drivers who practice and promote responsible tourism methods and techniques and participate in the National Park Conservation and Development programmes and Tribal Conservation initiatives can be hired.
Four interesting American Indian Tours that I have found are:
1. Spirit of the Wolf. This holiday is in South Dakota, North Dakota and Wyoming the Tribal lands of the Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne, Crow and Wind River Tribes.
This unique journey delves into the physical and spiritual significance of the wolf to the Plains Indians. The wolf appears in sacred narratives of ceremony and origin; he is celebrated in song, and has taught and inspired hunters and warriors.
Highlights of this trip are: Yellowstone, Sacred Rock Art Sites, Traditional Tipi Camp, Storytellng, Native Arts Workshop, Wild Mustangs to name but a few.
2. Lakota Moon. This holiday is located in South Dakota, Wyoming and Montana. The Tribal Lands of the Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne and Crow.
This holiday is a journey into the culture of the Lakota Sioux Indians. Apart from learning the history of the people and about their great leaders such as Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse. Time will be spent journeying across the wide open prairie, rolling plains, the mountains and rivers of the Lakota Nation.
Highlights of this trip are: Sacred Black Hills, Bear’s Lodge, Badlands, Pine Ridge Reservation Sitting Bull’s Birthplace, Fort Pierre Fetterman Battlefield and Wounded Knee.
3. Hoka Hey! The Great Sioux War. This holiday is in South Dakota, Wyoming and Montana. The Tribal Lands of the Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne, Crow and Wind River.

Any of these holidays will provide you with plenty of adventure, photo opportunities, Native American Crafts and the chance to learn some American History in the places where it was made.
