Trip Highlight ! - Our guide Joseph was the absolute best! His storytelling skills and ancestral knowledge were beyond compare. This tour was a last minute spontaneous decision on our 2 week trip and it ended up being the highlight. Joseph even educated us on the proper iPhone camera settings and filters to optimize our photographs of the experience. Thank you!

Great. - Very nice visit. The guide was very nice. He took the trouble to speak softly and even played us a nice flute tune. That was great.

Best Guide Ever - The closed vehicle kept us warm and out of the flying dust. But it only had one exit door, so get out as often as possible and take lots of photos!

Stunning! - We thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Learning about the valley and hearing Chandler’s descriptions more than met our expectations. He exceeded more so when he offered to take pictures of us and then used panoramic and portrait modes with our iPhones. Thanks so very much!

Great scenic tour - The landscape is awesome and iconic. Many western movies were filmed here. We took the 4x4 tour and our tour guide was wonderful. He was so energetic and loved to tell us about the Native American culture. He stopped at many places for great photo ops. I recommend doing their tour because you can sit and enjoy the scenery plus the roads are hard on your vehicle. After the tour, there is a small museum inside the building to check out.

A Little Lost and Additional Cost - Chandler gave an amazing tour. He offered us to use blankets during the tour that were available at the gift shop. They were super warm and extremely helpful. The sites are stunning and we learned a lot about the natuve culture! The tour itself was fantastic. However, the directions on where to meet for the tour to begin were not clear. Providing latitude and longitude coordinates are not helpful when using GPS. We were fortunate to have allotted extra time to get there because we were not aware that the Navajo Nation observes daylight saving time which meant the time was different than where we stayed in AZ. Also, it would have been nice to know that there is a fee to enter the parking area at The View Hotel which is charged per person, not even per vehicle. It is disappointing to pay for the tour and have an additional fee just to park.
