We greatly enjoyed our tour of Monument Valley with our Navajo guide Joe on March 11th. It was evident Joe was proud of his heritage and extremely knowledgeable about his land. He is also a very skilled storyteller. He made our afternoon an unforgettable experience. A Navajo guide is the only way to tour Monument Valley!

Never a bad tour with Viator.

Our guide John was great! Gave us so much information on the monuments and shared so much information regarding his Navajo culture. We had an unexpected private tour. A tour makes viewing Monument Valley more detailed because you can tour areas not available to people driving their vehicle. We also heard John play a wooden flute. Made the area feel magical.

The only way to experience Monument Valley!

Our tour was a full three hours and explored parts of Monument Valley that are not viewable on your own. Our guide, Travis, was amazing. We never felt rushed, he took us to the most photogenic spots and he shared his vast knowledge of MV and the Navajo people. It was a very spiritual experience we will never forget!

Monument Valley tribal tours with Toney a must do!

Our guide Toney was amazing! We had the tour to ourselves which was great. He told us all the back story of the monuments and Navajo. He took us to the best photo spots and helped us get the best shots. His traditional song at Big Hogan was a highlight as well as Bobby playing his flute. 4 hours of absolutely stunning scenery even in the cold. Can’t recommend this back country tour enough! We all had the best day out.
