The beauty of Monument Valley is stunning. Our guide Comie was wonderful, showing us the details of each rock. She even sang Navajo songs for us.

We loved Jameson ! He took his time explaining everything and showed us his singing and instrumental skills. The tour was fun even when we did the scenic drive ourselves the day before!
