What To Expect

Navajo Nation

Travel through one of the most biodiverse stretch of highway from Flagstaff at 7000 feet, the Navajo Nation, and the red rocks of Glen Canyon before arriving at Horseshoe Bend

Horseshoe Bend

Next, it's off to Horseshoe Bend. Take an approximate 0.75-mile (1.2-km) hike that brings you to one of the best overlooks. At a point not far downstream from the Glen Canyon Dam, the Colorado River meanders around a rock promontory, creating the horseshoe-shaped loop beloved by visitors and photographers from around the world. As you approach the edge, take in the wonderful view. Please note: You'll hike a total of 2 miles (3.2 km); comfortable walking shoes are strongly recommended.

Glen Canyon Dam Overlook

Enjoy amazing views as you enjoy a picnic lunch at Glen Canyon Dam Overlook.

Antelope Canyon

At Antelope Canyon, follow your Navajo guide through a narrow slit in the earth where you’ll see the sculpted sandstone cliff. Sunlight from overhead creates shafts of light that pass into the canyon, making it even more beautiful. Descend ladders into the depths of the canyon to discover more of this serene place, and take photos with help from your guide about using the right settings on your camera for the light and the best angles for taking interesting shots. Antelope Canyon is a photographers dream.

Had the opportunity to take this tour the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, 2017. It was amazing! Our guide, Jennifer Barnes, was a wealth of knowledge about the area and a gracious host! Cannot recommend this tour enough; it belongs on your bucket list!

wow! It's hard to describe something this beautiful. We had a great day trip to both Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend. Our guide, Matt, was so knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend this tour. For Horseshoe Bend, be prepared to walk up hill.

We took a Thanksgiving day tour with Marcia to Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. Marcia was very relaxed and patient and she really accommodated her customers. For example, she stopped at an overlook when a person in the group requested it so that he could take pictures. Our first stop was Horseshoe Bend. Marcia was realistic about the crowds and gave us accurate times that it would take to walk to the end and return. After Horseshoe Bend, we had a packed lunch at the Glen Canyon Dam. Lunch was good and plentiful. Next, we made our way to Antelope Canyon, where Marcia prepared us for a long wait (which was really quite worth it). Marcia really made the trip! Throughout the drive, she shared her vast knowledge of the area (geographical, natural and cultural), and she did a great job making connections with the various members of the tour group. I am not the type to take a tour normally, as I am more of a do it yourself traveler, but for the amount of activities we squeezed into one day, I would definitely recommend this tour to other travelers. Marcia even asked all of the parties of the group what their plans entailed for the coming days, and then made recommendations accordingly. I am happy to say that she recommended Wupatki National Monument and Sunset Crater to us for the following day. We heeded her recommendation and had a great drive through these 2 areas.
