Sunset Tour of Monument Valley

Our sunset tour guide was Travis. We had a spectacular time. I do wish the truck had a microphone so that he could have described our surroundings as we drove, but once we got off the loop road and into the back country, we stopped many times, visited a hogan, heard Travis play beautifully on a native flute and a drum, saw petroglyphs, and heard his stories. Highly recommended.

Phenomenal tour with Dark Sky

We had a wonderful sunset tour. Our tour guide, Dark Sky, was phenomenal. We were never rushed at any of our stops. He gave us a fantastic tour with a lot of interesting information, took pictures of us in some beautiful locations, and gave us a very authentic tour with his knowledge on petroglyphs and the Navajo culture.

Great tour!

Larry was a WONDERFUL tour guide! He was very kind and accommodating. For the elderly in our group, he would get out a step ladder for the steep step down and would help people down. He is very knowledgeable about Monument Valley and its history. Would recommend this tour and Larry’s guidance to anyone visiting. We had a great time!!
