They don’t come any better! - If you are interested in the life of an American Indian as well as a tour of Monument Valley, then this tour is for you. Don Mose, your tour guide, has had has had a fascinating life and given of himself to extend his Indian culture to future generations (if they will listen). Have you ever wished you had listened to, and asked questions of, your grandparents while they were still living? Mr. Mose did and took many life lessons to memory. Yes, you will get a great tour of Monument Valley. More importantly, you will learn from a very wiseman about life. I am so glad we signed up for his tour. I could spend months and years learning from this man. If you just want the highlights of Monument Valley, choose another tour. If you are looking for something deeper, more meaningful, sign up for a tour with Don Mose. Explore what it means to be an American Indian and what he has learned in his lifetime. I don’t think you will be disappointed. David Las Vegas, NV

A remarkable morning - Monument Valley is a special, truly natural and national treasure. We both sought to visit this area for a long time. The biggest treasure was our guide, Don. His personality and storytelling made the Navaho culture and history come alive. So, thank you for your gift.

Wonderful tour with Don as our guide - We had a 3.5 hour private tour with Don. It could not have been better! Aside from the gorgeous scenery, he gave us a great understanding of the history and probable migration of the Di-ne people. If you take the tour and Don is your guide you will not be disappointed.

Can't recommend this tour enough. - The guide was very knowledgeable about both the valley, and the history and culture of the Navajo people. My wife and I came out with a much better understanding of both. I will remember our guide as strongly as I will remember this place.

The only way to see Monument Valley - Don was our guide and he was amazing, he shared so much knowledge about his people and the land. Private Tour is the only way to go. If we come back booking with Don again. Stan and Debbie

Highly recommend the Private Monument Valley Tour with Don!! - Don was amazing!!! He shared his childhood experiences with us. He helped us get the best pictures of the monuments and other sites in the valley. He spoke the Navajo language to us and explained what he was saying. Told us how Navajos helped the US win WWII with the Code Talkers!! Explained to us the petroglyphs of the Navajo Indians!! Highly recommend the Private Monument Valley Tour!! You will not regret it!!

Grateful! - Unbelievably knowledgeable guide, Don! He is a Native American Elder that trains the other guides! He assisted in getting the Navajo language with some other experts into the Rosetta Stone software. Really honored to get to spend about 3 hours w him on a tour of monument valley!

Do not miss an oportunity to take a tour with this company!!! - Nor really a guided tour kind of person, but had a great time. Days later my sister, daughter and I are still finding ourselves chuckling about some of the stories our guide told us. Still highpoint of our week long tour of UT. We did a private tour, so we got to ride inside the vehicle with our guide and ask as many questions as we had. BEST tour any of us have done in years.
