5.00Our tour guide Bob, was fantastic. He took a detour to the backcountry and showed us some beautiful sights not on the main tour. For the Italian couple in our group, he spoke a bit of Italian. The best part was when he paired up with another tour guide and performed some Navajo music for us.

5.00This tour is in a minivan, not an open car. It was good for us… it was rather chilly that day. But that was not obvious from the listing

5.00Request Stephen Holliday. He was great. We could tell he was very proud of his people the Navajo. We were able to ask question about the reservation and history and he answered with passion for his people. He made sure we saw everything. Hew was awesome.

5.00Very personal! Tim Holiday didnt use a microphone and a speaker like we saw other guides do. It reminded me of a Universal Studios tour. Tim, instead, would stop the vehicle and come talk to us in an unassuming manner and answer our questions. So very appropriate and respectful of the environment. Ask for Tim! Also, even though I am a huge John Ford fan, I was impressed and gratified that the focus of the visitor center and the tour was on the Navajo culture and heritage and the relationship to the land, not the movies. Seeing the natural spectacle was everything. We went in placid cool February and understand that the route is bumper-to-bumper and 110 degrees in summer. So dodged a bullet there.
A wonderful Tour

5.00Steven did the tour for us. It was awesome. He is friendly and told us a lot of interesting facts. I would suggest doing 2 and half hours though as I feel we missed a few spots.
This was a great...
