This tour was well worth it. The canyon is breath taking! The tour has a long hot hike about a mile and a half down hill to get to the entrance of the canyon. If you have mobility issues or other health problems this is not your tour. There are other companies that will drive you to the entrance and back.
Aside from the wonderful landscape of Antelope Canyon. You should know that I had to pay an additional $48.15 for the guide; there were three of us, two adults and one child. It was not clear why for the guide.... Then there is no transfer... walking for 4km in the middle of the desert round trip in 40-degree heat. Tour booked for 12:00, communicated via email to move it up to 10:40... it was understood why....
Dear Alterbo, Thanks for your feedback. We feel sorry about your experience. For this tour the Navajo Permit is not included. Customers will need to purchase permit on their own for checking in the tour. This permit is needed when you visit Navajo Nation. This is not collected for the guide. We have listed this description on the product listing as well. Also this is hiking tour only. We have listing all the warnings on the tour page and emphasized that there is no shuttle transportation at all. All the notices are listed on tour pages as well as in the reminders sent to every customer one day ahead of tour time. Please make sure your physical conditions are good enough to take this tour before booking. Thanks for your understanding.
Magnificent landscapes The hike can be difficult on the way back (it goes uphill) but there are 3 water points
First of all , the tour guide is very nice and explaining everything to us very patiently! so 5 for him! However the tour booking information is very misleading. 1. the booked time is different as the tour company's schedule, they use different time zone, so we had to wait in the heat for an hour to start the tour. 2. The booking ticket says entrance fee is included, but the tour company insist that it's not, so we have to pay again. 3. It's not 2 hour 50 minutes tour! The actual tour itself is 45 min. The rest of time is for walking from the company's spot through a hot dessert to the canyon entrance and back! Very tiring. This information is not disclosed on the booking site. The company offered $70 per person transportation if we want a ride for 10 min instead of walking! For group of 4 that is $280 for a 10 min drive, ridiculous! I turned it down of course. It's very sneaking practice. Not recommend.
Be ready for a fantastic trip. Great company , great guide saw wildlife , saved a lizard will be thinking of this trip for a long time. My teenage grandson was even impressed !!!
This was definitely a highlight of our vacation. I’ve never been to a slot canyon. The lighting makes for some amazing photos. Our guide was very helpful in showing us how to get good photos. We did the hiking tour and it was an easy walk to the canyon.
The kindness. friendship and professionalism of tour guide. He’s so friendly, kind, knowledgeable and professional
Absolutely fantastic experience, highly recommend! The guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and there was ample time to enjoy the surreal beauty of the canyon.
The canyon's stunning sandstone formations, vibrant colors, and incredible light beams created breathtaking views at every turn. The entire tour was well-organized, and the hiking experience allowed us to fully appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of this remarkable place. It was a perfect combination of adventure, learning, and photography. Thank you, Julie, and the entire team for an amazing experience. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Arizona and looking to explore one of nature's most spectacular wonders.
Very informative and fun guide. Wonderful sites. I recommend highly.
