Lower Antelope Canyon General Guided Tour
Description
The Navajo name for Lower Antelope Canyon is Hasdeztwazi or “Spiral Rock Arches.” This incredible canyon has been created over many thousands of years by the relentless forces of water and wind, slowly carving and sculpting the sandstone into forms, textures, and shapes which we observe today. The views in Lower Antelope Canyon change constantly as the sun moves across the sky, filtering lights softly across the stone walls. These ever-moving sun angles bounce light back and forth across the narrow canyon’s walls, creating a dazzling display of color, light, and shadow.

Antelope canyon is famous for its wave-like structure and the light beams that shine directly down into the openings of the canyon, creating a super natural appearance. Many travellers and photographers have been attracted here, regard it as a place where dreams come true. Different from the flat ground of Upper Antelope Canyon, Lower Antelope Canyon requires visitors to climb upside and down through staircases and ladders.

Make sure you understand the time, since there is several changes in time depending where you are located.
It was great all around. Our guide was excellent, the rest of the staff was incredible, and an hour is plenty of time. We took too many pictures.
We really enjoyed the tour but felt there were too many groups there at the same time. It was hard to get pictures because one family thought they had to photograph each family member separately at locations. It made it hard for the remainder of the group move around. Tour guide was good.
Fantastic Guide - Lomore. Absolutely stunning slot canyon
The guide was super nice and took many photos of us, also giving us instructions on how to take them, etc..
Antelope Canyon was one of the most amazing places I have ever seen. I thought we would be hiking in the desert for 45 minutes and then be in the canyon for 5, but it was the exact opposite. The walk from the parking lot to the canyon entrance was quick. We were in the canyon for about 45 minutes. We never felt rushed. There were 9 of us, ages 70 to 11, and everyone said it was the highlight of their trip. Our guide was awesome! He took photos for us and even helped with the phone's settings to get the best pictures. It was totally worth the price! You won't regret it!
This was an awesome tour and guide, Janelle! It will remain as a memorable visit to Antelope Canyon! Great photos too!
This was one of the highlights of our trip. Lower antelope canyon is the best one to visit if you are only visiting one. It definitely didn’t disappoint. The guide and the colours in the canyon were fantastic! An experience like no other. I booked direct with Ken’s Tours. Don’t hesitate! It’s worth every penny and will be an experience you will never forget!
I took a solo trip to Antelope Canyon in June 2026 with Ken’s tour group. My tour guide was Kennedy, who did an awesome job with leading us through the canyon, giving us great background information. He also took amazing pictures for us, played us a traditional Navajo flute and was all around a great tour guide. Now this is just my opinion but the pricing of these tours aren’t worth it to me. Yes the pictures are beautiful, however you’re just walking around to take pictures and that’s it. The entire tour was about an hour, maybe 45-50 minutes. I drove up from Phoenix, which was about a 4 and half hour drive (there and back) so it was a lot (for me) to just take pictures and be done. Overall this is something to do at least once if you visit Arizona.
The Lower Antelope Canyon was incredible! Antonio C. did a great job guiding the tour and also took some wonderful photos of our family. The entire canyon was breathtaking, my family was blown away with the location and experience.
