Amazing - We were originally scheduled a couple days ago but due to the time zone difference, we missed it. The company was very accommodating to get us in. That being said. We had a great time with our tour guide, Lee. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the history. We had a blast with him and he takes great pictures!

What an honor to be on... - What an honor to be on tribal land! Bobby, our tour guide, was fantastic! We had the opportunity to listen to him play a traditional ceremonial flute under one of the many arches and domes. It was very moving. Along the tour you see so many monuments and get the history and story behind them. We loved being able to take pictures up close and having access to these incredible structures! We recommend everyone doing this tour and not doing the self drive as the roads are bumpy and sandy and the guides navigated them with ease.

An early morning but not to be missed - We had a first rate experience with Lee as our guide on the 3.0 hour sunrise tour. Yes, it departed at 5:30am and getting up at 4:00 was painful. But WOW! There were only 7 of us on this tour and only 3 or 4 trucks total. We practically had the park to ourselves. Although it was August, it was quite chilly and I regretted not bringing a polar fleece. Lee was an amazing guide. He was so generous and kind, sharing many details of his life story and Dine’ culture. Lee is definitely a people person and obviously gets a lot of joy out of sharing Monument Valley’s natural beauty, history and culture with visitors. He is an expert photographer and gave me excellent shooting suggestions with both my Nikon SLR and my iPhone. I learned some new skills and took epic photographs. He moved us by a couple of feet here and several yards there to make sure we got the best angles and viewpoints for photos. Cannot recommend more highly.

Great Sunset Tour on our 40th Anniversary Celebration! - What a wonderful experience on our anniversary trip! Our guide was wonderful and the scenery was just breathtaking! We loved seeing buttes, mesas, and especially the arches! No way pictures can capture it or for words to describe its beauty!

Sunrise tour - We took the sunrise tour yesterday morning with a Navajo guide, Mr. Dineh. It was a wonderful experience. The guide was very talented, an expert photographer, and passionate about his stories. A well-deserved 5 stars!

My 21 year old son and I... - My 21 year old son and I really enjoyed this experience. So glad to have someone else do the driving on these super bumpy dirt roads so we could just take in the grandeur of these monuments! Also, when you’re on a tour, you get to go deeper into the area where others aren’t allowed and see some super cool stuff. Or guide was very informative and kind. Well worth the money spent. Highly recommend!

An awesome experience - It was an awesome experience. We came back with so many wonderful pictures. Our tour guide took us to places that are inaccessible to the general public. He also positioned us at the right spots during the sunrise. Also learnt a lot about Native American culture and their cycle of life theory. We experienced the echoing sound of flute from the mountains. And took many selfies with arches at the background. An unforgettable tour. Do not miss this one if you are around the area.

We got more than our... - We got more than our alloted three hours, mostly in the sandy 'backcountry', including visiting a hogan and various rock formations. For some extra drama our vehicle had to tow another vehicle out of sand that it was stuck in. Our guide talked a lot about growing up in the area, giving us good background. The sun was setting and the track was mostly deserted by the time we finished. Recommended!

Absolutely worth the early wake-up! - Doing the sunrise tour in Monument Valley was an unforgettable experience. It’s 100% worth getting up early – the valley is almost completely empty at that time, so it feels like a private tour. The views are breathtaking with the first light of day. Our guide, Lee, was fantastic. He shared so much about the history of the park and Navajo culture with passion and knowledge. It really added depth to the whole experience. One tip: bring a sweatshirt or jacket – it’s quite chilly in the early morning. A must-do if you're visiting Monument Valley!
