Wander freely: A solo traveler’s guide to Sioux Falls

This piece is sponsored by Experience Sioux Falls.

Traveling solo is the perfect opportunity to reconnect with yourself— and Sioux Falls is just the place to do it. Whether you’re craving relaxation or a bit of adventure, our two-night itinerary gives you a touch of each. Take the guesswork out of planning so you can focus on enjoying the journey.

Afternoon activity

Immerse yourself in Sioux Falls culture right away by exploring the many different shops downtown. Elevate your cooking with spice blends from The Spice & Tea Exchange, pick out that perfect piece of art at Alcove, or complete your wardrobe with a trending fashion piece at one of the many apparel stores. You’ll find all of that, plus many more fun shops.

While you’re shopping in downtown Sioux Falls, be sure to check out the sculptures that make up SculptureWalk. With over 80 sculptures spread throughout downtown, there are several photo opportunities on every block.

Dinner

Savor the Latin flavors at Dahlia Kitchen + Bar located at The Steel District in downtown Sioux Falls. Your tastebuds will be dancing in your mouth with delicious entrees like Birria Short Rib Empanadas, Chimichurri Bison Steak and Chipotle Lime Chicken Tacos.

Pair that with a handcrafted cocktail from Dahlia’s large tequila selection and you’ll be a happy traveler.

Evening activity

After your meal, make the short walk to Levitt at the Falls for a free outdoor concert held on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings during the summer. The concert schedule covers a wide range of genres, so there’s always something new to discover. Bring your own lawn chair or rent one on-site for a minimal charge.

If you’re feeling hungry later or if you skip eating at Dahlia, there are several food trucks, a stand from Dahlia and an adult-beverage vendor at Levitt at the Falls. You also can get food to go at any restaurant and bring it with you to eat on the lawn.

That was just Day One! Read the full itinerary on ExperienceSiouxFalls.com.
