Great trip! David was our driver, he pointed out several interesting sites and plants on the way out and back. Justin and Thomas were our guides. They were both very patient (I was a slow walker) and knowledgeable. Thomas was raised in a traditional "Dine'" home. (Means The People and is what the Navajo call themselves). His knowledge was incredible. He also carried a laser pointer to show us interesting features in the canyons. Justin explained a lot about how the canyons were formed and the geologic structures. He knew the best places to takes photos and how to set our iPhone filters for the best shots. He also played a traditional flute in the cavern that was exquisite. Highly recommend!

The tour was an amazing experience. Parking was visible from the main road and once inside, plenty of space. Check in at the office was fast and easy. Tour driver was engaging leading to antelope canyon and also on the way back to the office. We had the Josh as our tour guide through the north and south area. Very engaging, open to all questions, and delievered very detailed information about the canyon overall. My girlfriend and I enjoyed the breathtaking scenery. Highly recommending this to friends and family. 10/10 experience and plan to return in the future.

Really great experience. You can tell they run a tight ship over there. Super organized and everyone was friendly. The tour itself outside of transportation to and from and canyon was about an hour. Van was our tour guide. He was great! Shared a lot of details about the history of the canyons and provided some really interesting fun facts. The hike itself was fairly easy-moderate. Our tour had children and elderly people both groups were fine. This was my first time in Arizona and I'm excited to come back again.

This was by far the best experience I have ever had on vacation. From the guide, Josh, to the canyon itself- it was simply amazing.

Visiting Antelope Canyon was one of those experiences that felt almost unreal. From the moment I stepped into the narrow passageways of Antelope Canyon, I was amazed by how the light filtered through the curves of the sandstone walls. The way the sunbeams stretched down into the canyon made everything glow in shades of orange, gold, and red. It didn’t even feel like I was walking through something natural—it looked like a painting carved by time. What I enjoyed most about the tour was learning how the canyon was formed. Hearing how flash floods slowly shaped the smooth, wave-like walls gave me a new appreciation for nature’s power and patience. It reminded me that some of the most beautiful things take years—sometimes thousands of years—to fully come together. That perspective made the experience feel even more meaningful.
