Larry was an amazing guide! His knowledge of the area personally and the historical info was so helpful! He made the trip so enjoyable that you thought you were hanging out with your good friend, rather than a tour guide!

Wonderful immersive experience. This was made so much the better by the guide (Larry). Landscape, nature and environment simply unbeatable. Larry was considerate, knowledgeable and personable, he offered insights to the Navajo culture, investment in the land and brought a feeling of calm. Well worth comparing both sights as the Mystery Valley enhances the experience of Monument Valley. Highly recommended. Ahéhee.
