What To Expect

The Mitten Buttes And Merrick Butte

First, we'll assign you a horse based on your experience, weight, and height. Then we'll start galloping towards the West Mitten Butte, followed by the East Mitten Butte. They are also known together as, The Mittens. When viewed from the south, the buttes appear to be two gigantic mittens with their thumbs facing inwards. If you capture the Merrick Butte at an angle you see that it's between the West & East Mitten Buttes. All three buttes are commonly seen together in many popular films and images. Its elevation is over 6,200 ft making it one of the tallest buttes in Monument Valley.

Sentinel Mesa

Located northwest of The Mittens, it's a mountain with an elevation of over 6,400 ft. Most of the mesa is in the state of Utah, but a small southern section of it is in the state of Arizona. This breathtaking mesa can be seen from the Monument Valley Visitor Center.

Our experience started with a very rude welcome (asking for my PDF reservation and not email confirmation I was showing, while I called the previous morning to book and pay over the phone and had to send an email at the end of the day to finally get a confirmation they were supposed to send right away !) We did the 2 hour horse riding tour with Zik who asked us after 1 hour if we had booked the 1 or 2 hour tour. When we said 2, he tried his best to earn time and delay the way back to the stables without riding any further in the valley. We stopped many times and even stepped off the horses for 10 to 15 minutes for no reason. Our questions about Navajo culture or the buttes formation were answered quite approximately, he was definitely not a professional guide as we would expect paying $220 for 2 riders!! However, we met another couple who did the exact same tour (same price) and they had a completely different experience. They went much further in the valley without stopping at any time, when we stayed very close to the stables. Our tour was a big scam and could have been done in barely an hour at walking pace but we paid the price of 2 hours ! When we contacted Sacred Monument Tours to understand what happened and find an agreement instead of posting this review, their reaction was totally inappropriate and insolent, they said we were lying about the other couple’s tour and refused to confess there was a problem with our guide.

My husband and I did a horse tour and had a wonderful time. Neither of us have really ever ridden a horse before, but everyone there was very kind and told us how to handle them. The guide told us the history and stories of Monument Valley, took some photos of us, and made sure we were doing good the whole time. We got wonderful views of Monument Valley. The place was a little hard to find, but we just stopped and asked for directions and there is a sign once you get to the end of the road past the cabins at The View.
