Very disappointing

2.00Very disappointing. Not sure if we just had a poor guide but I expected to learn a little something about the history and culture of the Navajo people but got nothing. We seemed to be rushed around each of the stops and were then bundled back into the vehicle and returned to base before the sun had even set! Not a good experience at all.
Magnificent late afternoon guided behind the scenes tour of Monument Valley. Much more than what you see from the View!

5.00Absolutely magnificent behind the scenes tour of Monument Valley. Guided tour in the late afternoon and got back as the sun was setting. Spectacular rock formations and Travis was wonderful at relaying the Navajo history and traditions. Included very moving music at key locations. Highly recommend!

5.00The Sunset Tour was excellent! I was picked up at the local KOA and driven to the View Hotel where our tour would begin. Our guide, Sandrea was friendly and very informative. She told us the historical background of the valley and the Navajo traditions concerning the valleys use and background story for the naming of the various Navajo sites in the backcountry section of the tour.
Fantastic Sunset tour

5.00The guide, Larry, was knowledgeable and patient. He didn’t rush us from stop to stop. He took the time to discuss the geology and history of the valley. He was happy to take photos of the people in his charge.
Great Experience in Monument Valley!!
