Great tour - Great tour by Carol, worth the money and great to learn about Navajo culture. The truck was a lot of fun, but don't forget to bring sunblock.

An experience out of time - Unforgettable experience thanks to our guide Larry who gave us a lot of explanations about the site. The tour takes us to places off the authorized tracks. In addition, he helped us take pictures to see the drawings in the rock and he even played us his traditional instrument. Thank you Larry!!

Amazing sites and authentic insights - This tour was really great. Our guide Larry shared stories that connected us to the land, accommodated our photo stop requests, and even provided cold water on this scorching hot day. He played an oaken flute at one of the stops, where the sound filled the open arch above. The other guests in the vehicle also helped make the trip entertaining. I felt like I learned some things, and had exclusive access to some areas of the Valley.

Fascinating and more fun excursion - Carole was a very engaging guide with a lot of knowledge of Monument Valley. Sunset is really the time to visit Monument Valley.

Fantastic experience, to be repeated - Sublime experience. Our guide Comasheena was wonderful, she explained many Navajo traditions and customs, even singing us a tribal song at sunset. We will never forget the hospitality and courtesy of the Navajo people. Recommended!

Fascinating tour - Fascinating tour and definitely to do. Very good and helpful our guide Sandrea. We thought we would do it with our car (a sports sedan) but luckily in the end we opted for the tour. The road in some places is bad and many stretches are only accessible to organized trips so in my opinion it was the best solution. Surely with a 4*4 or an SUV you should not have problems but certain traits you can not reach them cmq.... Experience that I recommend.

Amazing Sunset Tour with Comie - Comie, our guide, was amazing. She went the extra mile, adding stop to the tour, helping us staying cool with the wet rags and providing valuable explainations all the way. This was the icing on the cake of this breathtaking landscape. MERCI COMIE 😀

Beauty, History, Culture all in one - What a wonderful experience. The sunset tour really is amazing. It was a little warm when we first set out but the truck is shaded and between stops there’s plenty of wind. It is kind of a rough ride at first but when you get to the backcountry, the sand smooths things out…. And the additional special stops back there are amazing. The highlight was our guide, she was so knowledgeable about the rich history of her people. She even sang a prayer song while in one of the caves… it instantly takes you back hundreds of years.
