5.00Misty was an excellent guide for our 4-hr tour of this beautiful, historic canyon. She was very knowledgeable and friendly, and her own clan (family) history gave us so much insight into the close Navajo family connections. The tour was very interesting on both an historic and personal level. She arrived right on time, vehicle was clean, and we had a beautiful day to see everything. Even if you were allowed to go on your own, it's so much better with a personal, well-informed guide!
A spiritual experience.

4.00Seeing up close and hearing about the canyon history from a native guide makes the cost well worth the price. We took this private 4 hour tour and saw rock art, ruins and wildlife you cannot see from the rim overlooks. Check the tour prices from different operators and what they include, be aware that there is a separate $15 per person tribal entry fee to enter the canyon. Four hours is about the right amount of time but be aware you do not get all the way to Spider Rock or Massacre Cave so check them out from the rim overlooks. Our guide Richard was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the canyon and took time to show and talk about. Be aware that trails are rough and dusty as the entire floor of the canyon is sand with many wash and water crossings. Our vehicle could have had a better suspension and been cleaner inside so dress and expect accordingly. We give it 4 stars instead of 5 only because of the vehicle otherwise a 5.
An Unforgettable Time

5.00My girlfriend and I enjoyed our 4-hour jeep tour with Richard as our tour guide. He provided many layers of history and stories that brought the canyon walls to life for us. Days later we are still talking with friends and family about our time in the canyon. Truly what a gift to learn about the Navajo and Anasazi people. We highly recommend this tour!
The guide was fantastic and the canyon was spectacular! This private tour was well worth the $ and time.

5.00Our guide, Reginald met us at the parking lot right on time and immediately whisked the two of us off to the canyon while he began sharing his in-depth knowledge of the sites we saw. Two aspects made this adventure unique--first and foremost was Reginald and secondly, the canyon pictographs and ruins. Reginald's warm personality; insightful Navajo stories and interpretations of Navajo history; and flute playing immersed us into the culture. The canyon itself is stunning--a mix of natural beauty with significant historical ruins and pictographs. There's so much to see that we'd like to come back and spend more time here. This tour was top of the list on our trip to Zion, Bryce, Monument Valley, Valley of Fire, Bears Ear, Capitol Reef, and Grand Staircase. Definitely go a little out of your way to fit this in.
Fantastic Tour of Canyon de Chelly

5.00My wife and I had a mesmerizing tour of Canyon de Chelly with Jason, who is personable and extremely knowledgeable as to physical and historical aspects of the canyon having spent years living and working in it. The landscapes are truly magnificent and the historic relics of living spaces built into caves and cliff ledges along with prolific and fascinating petroglyph and pictorgraph art were truly beautiful. Jason shared experiences and anecdotes that greatly enriched our understanding of Navajo culture and the history of these people in this area over centuries. He was a terrific guide and an excellent driver in the rough and exciting roadless conditions of the canyon floor. We highly recommend Canyon De Chelly Tours LLC.
Wonderful experience

5.00What an amazing experience we had. Our guide, Reggie Regg is awesome. His knowledge of the canyon, his life experiences of growing up between the canyon walls added to tour. He showed up on time, the jeep was clean and well kept. Reggie brought with him two flutes which he played in different locations being the canyon to life with his music. We highly recommend Canyon Del Chelly Tours LLC for your adventure. Ask for Reggie Regg to top off your tour.
Wonderful!

5.00Since the canyon was closed due to gov’t shutdown we were more than thrilled to book a last minute tour w/this co. Misty was wonderful and as a native american was totally knowledgeable about the canyon. Beautiful tour across the canyon floor including ruins which were awesome! Definitely a highlight of our trip to Arizona & would highly recommend.
