The owner and guide, Garry, arrived promptly in an air-conditioned, comfortable 4-wheel vehicle. He was an excellent driver as a guide. He was very personable and outgoing and made us feel welcome. We headed into Mystery Valley, a short drive from Monument Valley Tribal Park. We learned about geology, plant life, the history of Anasazi and Navajo, its culture and spiritual belief. We had the opportunity of sitting on flat, scalloped rocks and experienced metaphysical energy and motion. At another stop we sat on rocks below an Anasazi ruin where Garry played traditional Navajo music, using a drum and flute. While his discussing the spirit world of the Navajo, the drum went off by itself. Garry is an excellent teacher, who shared the Navajo view of life in which we need to stay centered and balanced, the secret of the Beauty Way. This is all done in the backdrop of beautiful scenery. We give the guide and the tour the highest rating possible, 5 stars plus!

We went with Sean Holiday (probably a relative of Garry Holiday) who was like a walking encyclopedia (“not everything you read on the Internet is true” about their culture). But I digress. The tour was phenomenal! Sean was very informative & respectful about their culture & tradition. He drove very carefully through the restricted access dirt roads with care so we were not bouncing around in the back! He stopped & showed us mesa dwellings, pottery shards, petroglyphs. We even walked up the mesa wall & perched near an ancient dwelling while he played a wooden native flute! Very spiritual & haunting! Truly an experience to witness!

Thank you so much for your review. Many people wonder how each of us at Navajo Spirit tours are connected. Indeed Sean is a relative of Garry Holiday. "He is his son" Navajo Spirit tours is a very small family ran company. We think Sean is an absolutely amazing guide too! He has studied extensively Native history and philosophy and is so willing to share his knowledge with anyone who is interested. He is also an amazing flute player! Thank you so much for leaving a review. We do appreciate you taking the time and effort to let others know your experience with us. Kindly,

Will Cowboy, guide extraordinaire, presented Navajo culture and history in an amazingly mesmerizing fashion. I departed feeling somewhat deprived that I had not been born Navajo; to be surrounded by such a benevolent and generous life perspective from birth is a blessing most of us have not experienced. Will simply must preserve in writing or recording this invaluable Navajo oral intelligence and history. Add to this a poignant sense of humor, quite unexpected, and whether you come for the education, the guide's connection to the land or the entertainment you will not be disappointed.

We will certainly pass your review on to Will! We certainly appreciate him and his ability to share his experiences and culture with those who visit and have the privilege of spending time with him. We do hope that one day he can take the time to work on his life story. I think it is his dream to be able to share with as many people as possible. He is a great story teller, entertainer, and friend to many! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! Kindly,
