On our trip around the Southwestern states, we were lucky enough to stay in Monument Valley, and were taken on a 4x4 tour to see the sights by Vera. Vera was a superb guide, navigating us through the beautiful monuments, and pointing out the best angles for photos, and answering any questions that we had. A true highlight came when she sang us a peaceful Navajo song as we relaxed in the Big Hogan. She was also keen to ensure we were back at the start of the trail for sunset at the Mittens. We all got many spectacular photographs, and all had a fantastic time. Truly magical. Thank you Vera!

WOW! Monument Valley has to have been one of the most incredible places I’ve been. Our tour with Vera enabled us to learn loads more about this amazing place. She was so knowledgeable, calm and friendly. The most memorable moment of the tour was when she sang us a Navajo song in one of the monuments, I had goosebumps! Would really recommend. Was dusty though so bring a hat, sunglasses and a scarf for your face.

Monument Valley is a magic place and there are no words to describe it. Booking my 2.5 hour tour with Simpsons Trailhandler made it perfect! I highly recommend this company! Very easy to book online and they pick you up at The View Hotel at the exact time booked. Our tour guide Richard was te best! Very experienced, knows the valley like the palm of his hand, friendly, patient and he explained us a lot of the navajo culture and showed us AMAZING places. He also took us incredible pictures and give us tips for best scenic pictures. Ask for Richard when booking your tours. Thank you Simpsons Trailhandler for making my visit a truly unique and wonderful experience. I hope to go back for a watching stars tour! Susana (El Salvador).
