Upon arriving at the Secret Antelope Canyon parking area, your guide will provide a brief introduction covering the dos and don’ts of the canyon. From there, enjoy a short 0.3-mile nature walk into the canyon. You'll be amazed by the stunning striations, curves, and colors carved into the sandstone walls. Your guide will share fascinating insights about the canyon and point out the best spots for capturing incredible photos. After exploring the canyon, we’ll return to the parking area to board the vehicle.

Overall, the we enjoyed the experience as it was on our bucket list. Enjoyed the intimacy of small group. Would have liked the tour guide to be a little more engaged and share knowledge of the site and area with the group.

Our Secret Slot Canyon tour with Malcolm was amazing! The bumpy ride out was so much fun, and the canyon itself was absolutely surreal — peaceful, colorful, and otherworldly. Malcolm was a great guide, and seeing Horseshoe Bend without the crowds was the perfect bonus. Highly recommend this experience!

It was just great! Our guide Malcom took his time with us, explained the geology, the history of the Navajo and the area, and helped us take great pictures. I would highly recommend Deer Springs Tours and we plan on going back in the future.
