Full description

Explore the natural marvels of northern Arizona when you visit Antelope Canyon! Learn about Navajo culture from a local Native American guide and check out the quaint desert city of Page.

Your tour begins with a drive through the Sonoran Desert toward the mountain city of Flagstaff. On your journey, you have a chance to stop at a Navajo trading post to learn about Navajo culture and see how their intricate crafts are made.

Your next stop is the spectacular Antelope Canyon where you will join a Navajo guide as you are taken into the deep red-rock chasms that echo with ancient history. Bask in the sunlight that filters down through the narrow cracks above.

In the town of Page, AZ, you'll enjoy a satisfying lunch at one of the local eateries.

After lunch, embark on a scenic 1.5 mile hike to the Horseshoe Bend Overlook, which offers awe-inspiring views into a deeply carved channel where the Colorado River winds far below. Head back South and return you to your Phoenix-area hotel or drop-off location.

Please note, the order of stops can vary depending on the time of year.

Nate was a fantastic guide - very informative about a number of subjects/notable facts about Arizona, but particularly knowledgeable about Native American culture and art.
