We did a sunrise tour in April of 2026 with Chandler. This was one of the highlights of our trip through Arizona and Utah. Being in Monument Valley at sunrise was amazing. Chandler made sure we got several great pictures and saw some amazing sites. A great value and experience!
We rode with Tribal Tours for our Sunrise Tour of Monument Valley and the experience couldn't have been better. Our guide, Jameson, not only discussed the different rock formations, but talked about the significance of Monument Valley in his Native American culture. He also presented us with amazing flute melodies. The highlight of our tour was probably what we learned from Jameson as he described various aspects of growing up in a very family oriented Navajo culture. Would highly recommend the Tribal Tours company for your Sunrise Tour of Monument Valley.
How you can drive your own car through Monument Valley taking a tour is so much more. You’ll go on trails that are not open and need four-wheel-drive. The guides are wonderful.
Beautiful experience and Jameson was very good and helpful. Highly recommended!
An absolutely incredible experience, not only was our tour guide Jameson friendly, kind, and knowledgeable, he was our personal photographer and multi instrument musician. We arrived pre dawn, stayed for the sunrise, and then were honored to have 3 different songs played for us, each one more beautiful than the next. Jameson and his tour were truly the highlight of my families cross country roadtrip! We will absolutely never forget it!
Excellent Tour!! Tim our guide was fabulous. He told stories, played his flute and took us to places not seen by just driving through the park. Such a great memory and so glad we got up early to do this tour!!! A+++
This was one of the highlights of our trip! Our guide Tim was so knowledgeable about the Navajo culture and took us the best place for sunrise, right on time, as the sun was coming up. I highly recommend this experience, even though it’s so early in the morning, it is so worth it! A+++
Great experience! We had our guide Tim, who was very knowledgeable and was able to tell us so many things about the Navajo culture. He picked us up exactly at 4:30, right on time and got us to the most perfect place in Monument Valley for sunrise. It’s an early morning, but so worth it. A+++
We had a great tour of Monument Valley and Tim, our tour guide, did an excellent job of explaining Navajo culture and religion. We got beautiful pictures of the sunrise and highly recommend the tour!
Our tour guide Tim was great, very knowledgeable and took pictures for the group. He even played the flute and drum for our group and topped it off by singing happy birthday to my wife in his native song. Would 100% recommend.
