5.00Our tour guide Tim was great, very knowledgeable and took pictures for the group. He even played the flute and drum for our group and topped it off by singing happy birthday to my wife in his native song. Would 100% recommend.

5.00Marjorie was great. Our truck broke down and we had to wait for a new one, so we missed the surnrise by about 5 minutes. They were generous and gave us a refund, which I thought they didnt have to do because it was really still quite beautiful. Amazing and memorable experience!

5.00River is an amazing tour guide. We got to see so many different rock formations and landscapes as well as the history and significance behind them. River also played for us some songs from the traditional Native flute instrument!!!
An unforgettable tour

5.00We went on several guided trips while in the Monument Valley, and our morning with Marjorie was by far the best experience. She made sure to bring plenty of extra jackets and blankets to make sure that we kept warm during the chili Jeep rides. At one stop while we were near a Stone arch Marjorie sang us a blessing which echoed off the sandstone walls and made for quite a stirring experience.

4.00Beautiful morning tour, 3 hours somewhat rushed at each stop to see sunrise at the correct time. 6 people per van. Cool mornings are inside a closed van for warmth. Guide was very informative and friendly . Tour did not include admission to Monument Valley collected at exit or on line. Card no cash. Best for Adults. 1 bathroom break toilets are really unkempt. Confusing how early in the morning they were not clean😩 Beautiful scenic experience Sad to see the living conditions of the homesteads on the Tour.
