Visiting Upper Antelope Canyon was one of the highlights of our trip and an experience I will never forget. The canyon itself is absolutely breathtaking, with incredible colors, smooth sandstone walls, and amazing light that make every corner look like a work of art. Our Navajo guide made the tour even more special by sharing fascinating stories about the canyon, the history of the Navajo community, and the cultural significance of this unique place. It was wonderful to learn about the traditions and hear personal stories that brought the canyon to life. The guide was also very helpful in showing us the best camera angles and photo spots, so we came away with some truly spectacular pictures. Every minute of the tour was well organized, informative, and enjoyable. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Arizona. It is much more than just a sightseeing tour—it is an unforgettable journey through nature, culture, and history that will leave you with incredible memories and fantastic photographs.

We toured Upper Antelope Canyon today to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, and it was an unforgettable experience. Our tour guide, Ro, made our visit truly special. Ro shared fascinating insights about Navajo culture, adding depth and meaning to everything we saw. He also pointed out incredible images hidden within the canyon's rock formations that we would have easily missed on our own. One of the highlights was his help with taking photos—he knew exactly where to position us and how to capture the canyon's stunning colors and light, giving us beautiful memories to take home. Ro's knowledge, enthusiasm, and genuine care made our anniversary celebration even more memorable. We highly recommend Antelope Hogan Tours, and if you have the opportunity, ask for Ro as your tour guide. He helped make our 30th anniversary an experience we'll never forget.

Visit Upper Antelope Canyon to take in its dramatic light beams and stunning sandstone formations with guided insights into its natural and cultural history.

Listen to your local Navajo guide who’ll explain how the canyon was formed and its significant role in Navajo culture.

Wander through the canyon’s passages as you learn how natural forces shaped these formations over thousands of years.

If you're in Las Vegas, consider taking a day trip to the slot canyons with round-trip transportation, plus a stop at Horseshoe Bend added to your tour, along with a deli-style lunch.

Fun fact: The canyon is known as "Tsé bighánílíní" in Navajo, which translates to "the place where water runs through rocks", which is how the slot canyons are formed.

Adelbert was our awesome guide through the magical Antelope Canyon. He helped us get amazing photos and added important information and insights. Scarlett was our bus tour guide who did an amazing job keeping us on time and informed. Even though it is a long ride from Vegas it is incredibly scenic and passed quickly for us. Horseshoe Bend was a quick but worth it stop too. Recommend this tour!

Our guide, Charles had excellent tips for taking the quality photos of the canyon. I really appreciated his expertise plus he had surprising and interesting nuggets of information about the canyon. The experience was wonderful! I am always curious about cultures and would have also enjoyed learning some of the history, poetry or other Navejo stories about the canyon.

Pur guide, Clint waa very kind. He shared a lot of interesting information about the Navajo tribe, about the canyon and the history of the land. He also gave photography tips to help capture the beautiful canyon. The pace was good, allowing for pictures and stories, but it wasn't drawn out or rushed.
