Itinerary
Navajo Upper Antelope Canyon is a slot canyon in the American Southwest, on Navajo land east of Lechee, Arizona. Antelope Canyon was formed by the erosion of Navajo Sandstone due to flash flooding and other sub-aerial processes. Rainwater, especially during monsoon season, runs into the extensive basin above the slot canyon sections, picking up speed and sand as it rushes into the narrow passageways. Over time the passageways eroded away, deepening the corridors and smoothing hard edges to form characteristic "flowing" shapes.

We did the transportation tour which takes you to the canyon and then you get a guided tour. We originally booked the hiking tour which would have been a long hike plus the guided tour, but realized it would have been too much with the heat. They had room and allowed us to switch tours. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and showed us lots of camera tricks to bring out hidden images. It was a great tour!
We appreciate your positive review of your experience. The Upper Antelope Canyon Hiking Tour is tailored for seasoned hikers and involves 2 miles of hiking. We are pleased that you had the opportunity to switch to a transportation tour.
The Hogan Hiking Antelope trip was a great experience for our family. The price is much cheaper than other trips to Upper Antelope Canyon, as participating in this group requires trekking to the canyon rather than transportation; given the current economic situation, this money-saving approach is perfectly acceptable to us. The local guide was very knowledgeable, after all he was born there. Overall, it was a fun experience.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the Hogan Hiking Tour. The Hogan Hiking Tour is specifically crafted for the Hogan Tribe by the Navajo Nation, allowing participants to immerse themselves in the Navajo land while enjoying storytelling en route to Upper Antelope Canyon.
