Exceeded our expectations by far! Our tour guide Jamie was outstanding. Amazing energy, knowledge and did an amazing job communicating with our group. Was patient with our super fun french passengers to make sure they were also getting a great experience. Allowed time for translation as well. The drive from Page to Monument Valley was breathtaking and going on to tribe land far exceeds what you can see.

This was a truly incredible experience! Our tour guide, Jamie, offered a great deal of knowledge about Monument t Valley and the Navajo people as well as some well-timed humor. We would highly recommend d this tour.

This was a MUST DO at the park. We had Cody as our guide. very interesting and engaging. He took us to all the back roads and sites. He spent time explaining what we were seeing and really giving us a great time. The tour was about 4 hours. Started at 5 and ended at around 9 The first 2.5 was touring the valley and having a musical Navajo song from Cody. The last 1.5 hours was a dinner and Navajo dance. Pearl was our cook and Levi was our dancer. Having that dinner and performance around a fire in monument valley with the sun setting was the most incredible experience. The dinner was a traditional fry bread taco which was yummy. I highly recommend and so happy I did the longer tour.

The best part of it was the Navajo traditional music and dance. The tour also took us on some trails that were unaccessible to the self driving tours. Amazing experience!

When our tour guide, Jamie; showed up we had no idea what to expect. It turned into one is the most memorable experiences of my life. The fact that he is Navajo himself and from Monument Valley took my Ohio family into a whole new world. He taught us all about the culture, pointed out various monuments and explained their names, etc. He took us to a hogan where my daughter had her hair put into a Navajo bun. We had a Navajo meal with a father and son where the father sang while his son (Levi) danced. Levi is my son’s age and was very personable and talented. We were even able to see carvings from the 1300’s. Five stars doesn’t even come close to the true rating of our experience. Thank you so much Jamie.

Great experience with our tour guide, Wayne. He took great pictures of areas for us and was good telling us stories.

We love Wayne! His humor and skillful accomodations brought the majestic landscape ever closer to us as ‘first timers’. The stops along the way gave us time to engage actively whether sitting atop a horse; talking to those on tour with us; appreciating the songs, stories, music, dances, food that were offered to us. Yes, and even running up the sandslope to Ear in the Wind! Rosanne

The most amazing tour we’ve ever taken. Jerrick was the best guide! He truly went above and beyond. He showed us the best spots & took the best photos of us. We’re on our honeymoon and this tour was so special. We loved every second of it and the food was delicious! Highly recommend taking this tour.

This was the second tour that my wife and I took in Monument Valley, and this was by far the best. We learned about the Monument Valley formations and the history, traditions, and cultural practices of the Dine’ people. Our guide was Cody and he was excellent. Cody engaged us with his descriptions and story telling of life in Monument Valley, and he connected with us through his easy going, jocular manner. We learned how Monument Valley was shared with westerners through Harry Goulding reaching out to director John Ford with pictures of the beautiful landscape. Cody described how the Dine’ introduce themselves by describing their family lineage, and we learned some Dine’ words. Most fascinating for us was how Cody, with some sand and a little water, demonstrated how the monuments were created and then sculpted through the erosion process. Our tour group of 9 finished the evening with more of the Dine’ culture through food, more stories and history, songs, and dance. My wife and I can’t thank Cody enough for a fantastic experience!

Absolutely loved our tour with the Navajo guide, Jaimie, in the open air jeep. Monument Valley is beautiful beyond description. Jaimie was extremely knowledgeable and witty. The dinner was nice, and we had a splendid dark sky full of stars, constellations, and the Milky Way. The tour was almost as amazing as the eclipse. I highly recommend this to her. If you can get Jaime, you will be very lucky.
