Quite happy with our tour guide. - Our guide, Larry, was most informative. He described the history and monument valley very thoroughly. He knew the history of the area. He also shared some of his life experiences from living as a Navajo.

Great experience with a great guide - We had a great experience on the tour. It was a pretty chilly day and we were grateful when we saw that Larry, our guide, brought the enclosed van. Not only did he take us to beautiful and interesting spots he also shared his experience of life in the valley. Thank you Larry!

Great sunrise tour - My driver was great. Took me through some back country sites that it very worthwhile: petroglyphs, dunes, wild horses. Just excellent all around.

Best way to visit Monument Valley - My boyfriend and I signed up for this tour the day before heading to Monument Valley. We were debating between doing the self-driving tour or signing up for a guided tour. But we're glad we signed up for this guided-tour and had an amazing experience with our tour guide, Richard! Richard did a great job explaining each of the rock formations as well as sharing his culture and the history of the area. We saw the main rock formations as well as additional rock formations not on the self-driving tour. This tour was definitely the highlight of our road trip around Arizona!

Fantastic memories - A great tour, the guide took us to restricted areas to see some mesmerising rock formations. The road is bumpy so we felt safe with the skilled guide behind the wheel.

Great tour, questionable check-in - The tour driver was very informative and gave us a great tour!. The first stop included a visit with a local woman who shared her experience living in Monument Valley. Her stories about life there in the present and in the past were very interesting and much appreciated!

Beautiful views…tour itself was lackluster. - The views were amazing and it ended up being a private tour. The guide was a good driver; but, that’s about it. Not a lot of info was divulged. I was asking all of the questions and it ended after 1 3/4 hours, which was fine. Do not take the trip unless you have a strong back…it’s very bouncy.

Driver arrived late and the tour was shorter than booked. - The description of the departure location was a house in turquoise. However, this house belongs to another agency, which didn't know exactly what was going on, and we were sent back and forth. In the end, it turned out that our driver was 30 minutes late and we were actually in the right place. At first, no one was reachable by phone. After calling and texting a lot, we were simply told to wait for the driver. After the tour started 30 minutes later, it was a really great route. (Although every tour probably runs like this) Unfortunately, the driver explained very little and we were back after 2:10 hours (a big difference for a 2.30 hour tour) All in all, the tour was nice, but this wasn't the agency's fault. I would recommend another organization.
