I booked this tour 5 months out. A week before the door it disappeared, no tickets. A day before still no tickets or communication for tour operator. I guess it was cancelled. I rebooked the tour for 3pm. At 9:30 I got a text asking if I was coming, never received instructions but they did send a text for the 3pm tour. So I basically got doubled charged! The tour was good. I feel it should include cold water. Everyone ran out of what they brought. Just beware of the lack of communication.
Tour that allows you to discover the site. Timeless. Magical. Our guide was very nice. Very good atmosphere. Small group.
Our tour guide not only showed us the monuments but also told us a lot about the life and history of the Navajo.
Awesome tour. Richie was amazing guide. I highly recommend tour over driving yourself, especially with the guide like Richie.
It was a great experience despite the rain. Our guide was wonderful and told us many interesting historical facts and stories. He played traditionally songs for us and it felt very special. He also helped us taking great pics! The place is magical and filled with an incredible energy. Ride was really good and I felt safe. Organizers sent reminders and were available when needed. Thank you!
This was the first hand tour from someone who actually grew up in the area of monument valley.It was personal, it was special.Our guide Richie was fantastic. You should know that it is a somewhat rough ride. But, is well worth it.
Mr. Wayne Bigman picked us up right on time and gave us a wonderful tour. He is very knowledgeable and we appreciated having someone with so much knowledge of the beautiful monument valley he calls home.
The guide (Richie) was excellent.
The tour guide was very friendly and professional. They took us to many beautiful viewpoints and provided detailed and patient explanations throughout the tour. There was also a live music performance, which made the experience even more enjoyable. In addition, the guide helped take many memorable photos for us, which we truly appreciate and will cherish.
