3.00Avoid the vendor used by Viator. They were the worst! Our driver was awful!!! she started by complaining about having to work and that if dont get to Antelope on time the vendor there will drop us. And if its as windy as Flagstaff they will cancel without warning. Off we went at excessive speed passing vehicles while getting pushed by the crosswinds. The road was bumpy and we got tossed about the entire 2 hours and she talked nonstop about herself And little about the topography. We arrived bruised and frightened an hour early. We sat with the other visitors awaiting our time. The canyon was awesome After we drove to the visitor center where we received our picnic lunch- sandwiches with the bread so soggy and falling apart they werent edible. There was some sad fruit and insufficient chips and no dessert. We were served while sitting on a knee wall outside the visitor center, no chairs or tables and ate in the wind Then off to horseshoe canyon again regaled by our driver about her life and problems and a hard sell on her rafting trip for our kids. We were dropped off at the canyon, walked down and back unescorted and then drove again, bouncing out of our seats back to Flagstaff. She again talked about herself nonstop and played music. Janis Joplin wannabees loudly which she talked over the whole 2 plus hr ride. As we approached Flagstaff she talked about the tour she was doing the next day and how unhappy she was. Poor souls. Bottom line; Antelope awesome, Horseshoe worth a look. Our poor grandson and the family have PTSD
Very well organized....

5.00Traveling during their low season was great, more flexible schedule. Our drive/guide, Sam, was fantastic! So knowledgeable about the tribes, geology, hiking trails, places to visit and eat. The company partnered with Dixie’s (Navajo) to access the slot canyon. Groups of 15 people. Eli, our guide, shared history of this land/canyon; helped us take awesome pictures; played his Navajo Flute in the canyon (beautiful music).
Antelope Canyon amazing....

4.00Antelope Canyon amazing. But trading post / dam are mediocre at best. Horseshoe bend awesome. Too long of a drive from flagstaff - 2 hours to antelope canyon even with one stop. Alex was our tour guide- good guy but very boring For such a ling drive would be nice to have more interaction amd less monotonous information
Do it!

5.00Had an awesome day with our guide Alex. He was very knowledgeable and easy going. The rest stops along the way were clean and appreciated. The main attractions, Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon were absolutely amazing and easy to walk even for those that are a little physically challenged. Navajos guide at Antelope was excellent and really went the extra mile.
