What To Expect

Dineh Bekeyah Tours

This tour is a custom tour and are not necessarily in the order below. Each guide has their own itinerary and have a specific place and time to be throughout the tour. The 3 hour tour makes a stop at the famous John Ford’s Point where many of John Wayne’s western cinematic movies were film, and also the Transformers: Age of Extinction featuring Mark Wahlberg. Next, your guide will drive to The Backcountry of the park and escort you to the arches. At “Sun’s Eye Arch” you will be standing at a specific degree to look up into the rock arch and see why it is named Sun’s Eye. At the same location you will also see Petroglyphs and hear your guide’s stories. You will also travel to the “Big Hogan.” The Big Hogan is a great place to take family pictures and lie against the rocks and feel its warmth. Your guide will provide stories and suggest great photo shots. In the Backcountry is the “Ear of the Wind.” This is the largest arch in the park, and your guide will escort you to a photogenic spot where you can take photographs. You will be guided to the Totem Pole and Yei Bi Cheii Monuments where you will be able to take photographs and hear the cultural stories behind each monument. Your guide will meet you in the lobby of your hotel, then get ready for a scenic drive to Monument Valley in a comfortable all-terrain vehicle— allowing for exclusive access to parts of the park that are inaccessible to smaller cars. The area, located on a Navajo Reservation and considered a sacred healing region by Native American tribes, is tough to navigate on your own. But your guide will walk you through the history of the Navajo tribal park and the background of each stunning natural formation. With your choice of a sunrise or sunset tour, you’re bound for incredible, camera-ready views during the sun-kissed time of day known by photographers as the “Golden Hour.” The itineraries are fully customizable, so you’ll have your pick of some incredible spots, including iconic rock formations like John Ford’s Point, which served as film backdrop in many John Wayne Westerns. One of the most photographed formations is the Yei Bi Chei monuments, which resemble a line of tribal dancers. You’ll also get an opportunity to take pictures of the Big Hogan, a sandstone cave chamber, and Ear of the Wind, a mesmerizing, crimson-hued arch. At the North Window where you will have a chance to take pictures of the Mittens and Butte at different angles. Your tour guide will then slowly and safely transport you back to your departure point.

This tour was well worth getting up at 4:15 in the morning to meet our tour guide by 5:30 for our Sunrise tour. I had booked the 6:30 sunrise tour and I was called the night before to see if we could change our time because sunrise was at 6:20. I groaned a bit but agreed to come an hour earlier. Our guide Stephen was hoping we would show at 5am because we would have seen how the rock formations were more distinctive in the morning dusk.
Stephen drove us where the cars aren't allowed and took us to areas in the park that you can only see by a tour guide. He was knowledgeable about the park and shared information about his ancestors living in the park for centuries. He was also a budding photographer and gave us some helpful hints to help our picture taking.
This was a tough call to decide which tour to take however I'm glad we did the sunrise first. It and when we come again, I would do the Sunset tour.

This was a wonderful trip to the back country. We were able to see so much more by taking this trip and learn valuable information regarding the Navajo nation and culture. Steve was our guide and I highly recommend taking this tour with him. My only complaint was the sandstorm so at least bring a bandana with you in case the wind picks up and you will also have to hold on to your hat.

My wife and I highly recommend this tour through the Dineh Bekeyah Tour company. Our guide, Stephen, was a young man who has grown up in the valley and was able to share his unique perspective. This was a small group tour, just for people in an enclosed Suburban, while many other tours we saw were 8-10 people on seats on the back of an open truck. The tour takes you to areas of Monument Valley not accessible by the 17 mile drive. Again, Stephen made the tour so much more interesting that just stopping to view arches and beautiful scenery. He would share what was common in his grandfather's time, his father's experience, and his own today. We found that fascinating and very much appreciated the way in which he shared this information. We highly recommend this tour.
