Fantastic tour, couldn't have asked for anything better. - What a fantastic tour, Larry was the best. His story telling was full of traditional history and information of the area and the scenery is 2nd to none. Highly recommend this tour.

An experience for the eons - Beneath endless azure skies, the valley spreads out for miles of mesas and buttes that Nature sculpted over eons into shapes that often seem to defy gravity. Some offer windows to the sky and the spirits. At one of them, our guide, Tim, brought out a traditional wooden flute that sent out haunting notes as we lay on our backs for what can only be described as a spiritual experience. Monument Valley is filled with the spiritual, Tim explained, as he told stories of ancestors and Diné traditions. At times, we could almost see John Wayne riding the range in one of the John Ford movies set in the valley. Tim was terrific, serving up tales filled with information while explaining how he and his people live today. It's definitely worth the time to visit.

Well worth it- best way to see the Valley - Tim gave us a great tour, brought to life with personal anecdotes, information about the lives of the Diné people in the valley, and a lovely musical interlude in a cave. We loved every minute of it.

To get off the beaten track, do not hesitate! - Extraordinary! I had booked for 2:30 visit from MV. We were just my husband and me in the vehicle.
Our guide Larry was really great. He often stopped to explain the locations, the movies, the ads shot in MV. He took a lot of pictures of me and my husband. From that moment on, we will have an unforgettable memory. The last hour was hard as the wind picked up causing beautiful sandstorms

Would do it again with the grandkids! - The tour didn't disappoint! You can drive an short loop in your own car, but the road is rough. Folks were having trouble getting up the hills. It was nice to let someone else navigate the potholes, and take us to all the extended sites. Timmy was an excellent guide. We experienced the inside of a traditional hogan and he played his flute in the Big Hogan arch for us. It was a great experience. One we'd like to bring our grandchildren back for.

Unforgettable - Unforgettable insights into the nature (off the classic route) of the Valley, but also into the way of life of Navajos. During the 2.5-hour tour we also visited the family of our guide, who is one of the few still living in the Valley as self-catering.

The Real Deal - So glad we booked the sunrise tour with Tim. He takes you well off the loop and you see a huge range of sights. He is also an excellent photographer, thanks Tim. The visit to his homestead added a further dimension. His narrative, after the sunrise, was informed and reflective. Navajo Nation Tours is the real deal.

Wonderful tour - We were going to drive Monument Valley on our own but the night before we decided to book a tour and we are glad that we did. Tim was our guide and he did a wonderful job of pointing our all points of interest. We also had ample time to get out of the truck and take pictures. His narration was very good and he answered any questions we had. It was also interesting to see his family home and learn about traditions, as well as hear about movies that were filmed in the area and the Time magazine article about those living in the area and the need for water. I would highly recommend this tour.
