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.

I would highly recommend Grand Canyon Adventures Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon Adventures. Great value for my money. The van was very comfortable. They provided hotel pickup. There was plenty of water, drinks and snacks for the road. The driver was safe. It's a long drive across the Navajo reservation so I was glad I wasn't driving, especially on the way back. I had plenty of time to hike to and observe Horseshoe Bend. The driver even found me amongst the crowd and took me to a great spot where he took a picture of me overlooking Horseshoe Bend. The picnic lunch overlooking Glen Canyon Dam was a pretty spot. The food was delicious. The sandwich was almost too big and the picnic included pasta salad, chips, fruit and cookies. There was enough time to get some great pictures of the dam too. The driver was very efficient about getting us on the next Antelope Canyon tour. Since he was not allowed to go along on the tour, unless he paid, he prepared us for what we would be seeing. What do you say about Antelope Canyon other than - WOW!!!!!!! Don't miss the opportunity to go through. Our Navajo guide did a great job of helping us get the best pictures and took plenty of time to show us great angles and he even took lots of pictures of us with our phones. It is a pretty strenuous day and was glad the guide was driving back. He kept it quiet if we wanted to rest but was very open to answering questions we had. Don't hesitate to book a tour with Grand Canyon Adventures!!!!

Horseshoe bend required a hike up and down a fairly steep hill. I didn't make it, but my husband did. No Antelope was beautiful.

Scott was a terrific driver/guide to and about Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. Super knowledgeable and accommodating. RO was absolutely the BEST guide ever for Antelope Canyon. He was extremely helpful to all the guests, took great photos, explained everything, never rushed anyone, was watchful for any issues with group members, knew exactly how to set everyone's camera and phone for the best shots ever. Extremely informative and entertaining. NEVER LOSE THIS GENTLEMAN. On a side note: TripAdvisor needs to correct their site as it pertains to this excursion. We purchased the excursion with the web information that promised a pickup from our hotel in Sedona. We did not learn until the day before the trip that the tour company does NOT pickup from Sedona. We had to backtrack to Flagstaff to meet the van. If we had known this earlier on the day of purchasing this, we would have arranged our vacation differently so as not to waste a few hours with back and forth drives from Sedona. That would have saved us valuable time and gas.
