    Great tour, this extended tour includes many sites and goes beyond the self drive scenic drive (which I would recommend driving in a normal road car) and is well worth the cost. We went on the morning tour and it was quite cold in October, so do wrap up (though our guide, Larry, did provide blankets).

  • Amazing Tour

    This Monument Valley Back Country tour through Tribal Tours was incredible. Our guide, Travis Mose brought the canyon alive as he shared the culture, stories of the rock art and music of the Navaho nation. Travis introduced himself in the Navaho language. He also played his flute, chanted and sang while playing his drum. I hope you have this same experience on this tour!

    Our backcountry tour with Larry was amazing. Not only is the country spectacular, but Larry's historical and cultural context made the trip so much more meaningful. Highly recommend!

    We had an outstanding afternoon with our Guide Larry. He was witty, knowledgeable and a great storyteller. Larry took photos for us all and knew how to get the best shots. This is an off road tour in an open vehicle, so be prepared for some bumps and dust, but at no time were we uncomfortable. Larry took great care with a step out of the vehicle for my husband who uses a cane and had it ready at each stop. We had several performances along the way with Larry playing a flute. Fantastic natural scenery!

    If you visit Monument Valley, I STRONGLY recommend that you take this tour. You will see some amazing things that you would otherwise miss. Our Guide Comie was friendly and knowledgeable. The tour included sites of ancient cliff dwellers, 2000 year old petroglyphs carved into rock walls, a session with a Navajo story teller who discussed aspects of Navajo culture (super interesting) and some up-close visits to some amazing rock formations. Had I not booked this tour I would have missed all of this. Plus there were not a line of cars ahead of us or other people around.

    We had an amazing visit to Monument Valley. Our guide, Larry, did a fantastic job and took us to some incredible sites. He was extremely knowledgeable and told us about the history and customs of the Navajo and other people. He even played his flute at The Big Hogan and it was enchanting. I highly recommend this tour and if you can ask for Larry.

    The guide takes us to places that are not open to unguided tours; however, the weaving demonstration is optional and comes at the expense of the rest of the tour. The guide asks the group to choose between these 2 options (weaving or continuing to explore the valley) and the choice is made according to the majority vote. We learned 2-3 things about Navajo culture, but nothing transcendent. To sum up: we had a great time but expensive for what it is.

    Larry our guide was a wonderful source of information about Navajo culture and history. He played the Indian flute for us at one of the sites we visited …just magical. The road/trail seemed very tough on private vehicles.Glad I didn’t drive myself. The tour was a bit dusty but that can’t be helped
