This was by far one of the best one of the best tours I have been on. Things will start on time so make sure your ready to go. Keep in mind no bags no matter what size are allowed including water backpacks. I loved that our guide Marcus played the flute during the tour and explained how music helps to keep him grounded and pays respect. He also was very down to earth and was able to assist with photos and educated the group on the history of the canyon. Learned so much about how tell the age of the rocks and what different making mean. The Navajo people have done an outstanding job maintaining history and paying respect for all of things the earth provides. Things to note : bring water and a portable fan to help stay cool. There are over 100 steps without railing to enter the lower canyon. Take your time and rest when needed. Water is very important there are coolers with water long the routes. They is alot of red sand and it gets windy so wear eye protection and mouth covers. They will be a van ride to and from the entrance. Bring cameras and videos are allowed. This is well organized and if for any reason cant make it back up they will provide a help. The guide will be in constant communication with the office amd able to call for help via radio. This is an amazing experience and worth every spent. I can't wait to bring my son someday. Thanks for sharing your land and traditions with us we are grateful. Somethings in life are not learned from books but experiences!

“Absolutely amazing experience! Our Navajo guide at Antelope Canyon was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the tour so memorable. They shared interesting stories about the canyon, helped us take beautiful photos, and made sure everyone was safe and comfortable throughout the tour. The views inside the canyon were breathtaking. You can really feel the passion and pride they have for their culture and land. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Arizona!”

Lana was educational and very relaxed. I was lucky and attended the tour with three men from NY. We spent the entire tour shooting zingers at each other and just having a great time. Lana took the time to show us how the canyons were made by pouring water into the sand and creating a small stone cupcake. It was pretty cool. I know we all enjoyed her company.

The whole tour was incredible and went by like two seconds. Our guide Tori was fantastic, she was funny and super knowledgable and even took photos of us with her phone which were even better than my camera and emailed them to us after! Everyone we interacted with was lovely and it was a terrific experience.

    Getting started
