An interesting and authentic “safari”, with places and backgrounds that you can’t get on your own. And our guide John was super informative and friendly. Anytime again!

There needs to be signs or more descriptive instructions for where to meat. The staff at The View Hotel looked at me like they never heard the word "tour" before. I found some other your operators that got us to the right spot. Our tour guide was Yvonne (Vonn), who started off by asking if there were any specific facts or info the group was interested in. The group consisted of four other couples. The views were stunning. The history of the valley was very interesting. At John Ford's Point, there was a photo op (for a fee) on horseback. This is a recreation of a scene from The Searchers with John Wayne. My wife and I were the only ones who took advantage of this in our group. I would highly recommend it. The stop at the family dwelling was longer than it needed to be. The lady who gave the presentation did more complaining than reviewing the history of her family and their home.

We greatly enjoyed our tour of Monument Valley with our Navajo guide Joe on March 11th. It was evident Joe was proud of his heritage and extremely knowledgeable about his land. He is also a very skilled storyteller. He made our afternoon an unforgettable experience. A Navajo guide is the only way to tour Monument Valley!

We had an amazing tour. Got to see restricted areas. Bobbi was our guide and he was so kind and full of information. Would definitely recommend asking for him to take us again. Views of a lifetime.

Honestly? Visiting Monument Valley was one of the most amazing experiences. Bobby was great, incredibly kind, and a wonderful guide. He showed us the stunning land of the Navajo while sharing the history and culture of his people, which made the whole experience feel much more meaningful. He also treated us to a beautiful performance of Navajo music on flute and guitar together with his band-mate, which was truly special. Thanks again, Bobby, we really enjoyed the tour. ❤️

The tour guide was amazing and explained so many things about the Navajo culture, how do they live, the rocks, the names of the rocks, their formations, etc…

Steven was an excellent tour guide. He was very friendly and polite to every one on the tour, including the ones that were late. He gave us an insight into how the native people lived and worked in the valley.
