Our guide was a top man. Told us very interesting things about the canyon and also answered questions about The Dine people. The Canyons are beautiful. This is different to Upper and Lower as the external part of the slot canyon is beautiful too.

We absolutely loved our canyon tour with Alex. He shared excellent information about the canyon, took pictures for us, and we really enjoyed when he played his flute at the end of the tour. Wonderful overall experience. Would 100% recommend!

We thought that the tour was well managed and the location we visited was spectacular. We appreciated the guides direction on photos, but felt he could've been a bit more forthcoming with information about the location. He was very nice
