    Tour leaves from the View hotel. Our guide Sabrina was wonderful. The park is DARK at night. Most new cell phones can take great pics with the right settings. Do some research ahead so you can set your phone. Sabrina set up my phone and I took some amazing pics with my cell, better than others on the tour with expensive star gazing gear. This remains one of my favorite experiences

    Excellent guide, beautiful starscape! We even saw a UFO! I learned some things about astronomy photography that I’m eager to try on my own.

    Good afternoon! That’s amazing to hear, especially the UFO sighting! We're glad you enjoyed the stargazing and picked up some new astrophotography tips. We hope to see you again!

    Amazing tour guide & experience! But double confirm your ticket!

    Amazing, peaceful, and intimate experience. My tour guide was amazing! However, I would confirm your ticket purchase with the company beforehand because my name was not on the list when I got there, and the meeting directions were unclear. I bought my ticket on Friday for a Saturday slot (it still should’ve been confirmed because my card got charged). If I had not encountered the other two people in my group and waited with them outside by the tour buses, I would’ve been waiting in the hotel lobby (as my ticket instructions said to) and no one would’ve known to look for me. I drove 3 hours to see this event, I would’ve wasted a 3 hour drive and $190

    This was a nighttime tour...

    This was a nighttime tour so it was a little bit different. The stars were amazing. It does last for over 2 hours so make sure you eat dinner before going on the tour.

    Amazing experience!

    We had an amazing tour with Cheryl and Comie, our female Navajo guides. They knew all the good spots for photos, and were experts in using phone cameras to take killer shots. And then, to top things off, THE NORTHERN LIGHTS WERE VISIBLE IN MONUMENT VALLEY LAST NIGHT!! We also learned about Navajo traditions and culture. Highly recommended!

    Response from Host, Oct 2024

    Lynne, We're delighted to hear about your extraordinary tour with Cheryl and Comie! It's amazing that they guided you to the best photo spots and showcased their expertise in capturing stunning shots with phone cameras. Witnessing the Northern Lights in Monument Valley must have been a truly magical experience! We're also glad you had the opportunity to learn about Navajo traditions and culture. Thank you for your highly recommended review!

    Stargazing at its best

    What an amazing night, our tour guide Cheryl was absolutely amazing, the photos that she took for us as my iPhone wasn’t that good for the exposure of the stars was incredible, thank you for making my birthday extra special.

    Response from Host, Jun 2024

    Gail, That sounds like an incredible night! Cheryl really went above and beyond, taking amazing photos for you and making your birthday extra special. It's wonderful when guides like Cheryl add those personal touches that make the experience unforgettable. Cherish those starry photos as beautiful memories of your birthday celebration!

    Amazing night

    Awesome tour. Friendly guides. Very helpful taking beautiful pictures of the stars with phone. Cheryl and Reboor were excellent. They gave us a lot of info on Navajo culture. Also gave us extra time under the stars. My daughter and I loved this trip. Thank you. I apologize if I misspelled Reboors name

    Absolut beeindruckend
