Awesome experience - Really amazing experience with Richard as our guide. We were able to go to places you can't go by yourself and experience some really cool moments in secluded areas. We even got some native songs, flute playing, and we watched someone weave yarn. Definitely would do this experience again and highly recommend doing it with Richard!

10/10 would recommend - I booked this trip for clients and they absolutely loved it. One of the clients on the trip was a family member so I got to see video and pictures of their experience. I will definitely be recommending this company to future clients. The guide was incredible and talented and the people they met on the tour were warm and knowledgeable. They bought moments, entered a traditional hogan, learned about Navajo craft, got unclose and personal with Monument Valley, listened to singing and flute and got a lesson on how erosion made the landscape. I called the company when there was a small misunderstanding and things were cleared up in no time. They're professional, easy to reach and communicate with and they're doing a fantastic job introducing visitors to the Navajo way of life. Support Navajo while traveling in this area!

Monument Valley Jeep Tour - The jeep tour of Monument Valley was wonderful! Our guide was Jamie and he really made the tour special, even singing "Happy Birthday" to my wife and giving her a bracelet. I'm not sure there is any way for a future birthday to measure up to this one! Jamie is the BEST!

Our tour guide was excellent - Richard was our tour guide. He was very interesting. He was well prepared with information. He took many pictures of my husband and me. When he noticed my battery life was down to 14%, he let me use his battery backup. Richard willingly answered all kinds of questions. He had his flute with him and played it two time when we were at sites that other visitors weren’t. It was very special.

Extraordinary!!! - This excursion will remain etched in our heads for a very long time! Besides the scenery that was breathtaking, our awesome driver guide Navajo took us to places that only they have the secret! It was fabulous!!!

Excellent tour to immerse yourself in Monument Valley and its history - I really recommend this tour. One of the best parts was being with an authentic Navajo guide, and how she integrated us into the culture and explained everything very well. It would have not been the same without the guide. We learned about the Navajo people, their songs, the culture, the amazing rock formations that she took us to, and what they mean to them. The 4x4 was nice because it was open, so we could see everything as we were driving through monument valley.

The tour in 4x4 only... - Same opinion as other travellers: The tour in 4x4 with Cody very nice is to do! Meal is really a minimum service but it's good... The "Navajo Night" with the boss who says 2 words and his 15-year-old kid who does the dance for 3 minutes alone is the same tourist trap and not worth the price... Otherwise of course the tour is magical!

Great Trail at sunset.... - Great Trail at sunset. The Navajo guide is Nice but spend most of her time talking about Navajo legacy and struggles to protection their culture , language, their spirituality etc… important and understandable but it’s too much.
