What To Expect

Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park

Your guide would take you to see the beautiful iconic buttes, spires and mesas that have made Monument Valley famous on part of the 17 mile loop drive. We would then go to the back country restricted areas of the Tribal Park to stand beneath the natural arches, amp theaters and get right up close to the Anasazi petroglyphs. Our guides are so kind and would explain the traditional meanings of each location, history, and culture while answering any question that you might think of. Navajo Spirit Tours does not shy away from some of the spiritual topics that you might not hear about on a regular day. We do try our best in the short amount of time that we have with each of our guests to teach as much as we can while you are here. We do look forward to meeting you!

There are experiences that surprise you, those that surpass expectations, and those that resonate with you long after. On our third visit to Monument Valley my wife and I thought we had a pretty good idea of what this majestic, beguiling beautiful and harsh environment had to offer. We didn’t want to miss a moment of changing light gazing avidly from every conceivable angle. We hiked the limited trails and drove the gorgeous loop drive as we always had. This time we wanted to go deeper. We decided to do a guided tour. Because we were familiar with the loop and wanted to venture into deeper recesses away from crowds we choose a private tour with an independent guide. We chose Navajo Spirit Tours. It was clear from the start that our host, Gary was not the usual scripted tour guide. He grew up here and lives here. After a period of city life and other ventures, including lecturing on Navajo life at the university level, he brought his wife and family back to the valley and opened Navajo Spirit Tours. Gary has a talent for connecting with people on a deeply human level. On his tours you’ll share experiences far beyond the typical sightseeing. He is a native speaker and a soft spoken orator. He is equally well versed in culture, history, mythology, geology, movie history and will happily contour tours to the specific interest of his guests. I won’t share the specifics of our afternoon. Everyone will have their own unique experiences. But I will say the back country tour was electrifying. I knew it as it was happening and feel the same days after. My wife and I own an historic house. Do do group tours. I am always fascinated to see how other guides engage their audiences. Gary did so by first making us comfortable, then gently coaxing out of us what we hoped to gain from our visit. If you prefer a “Disney-like” experience (nothing against the mouse) you’ll be happy to climb into a covered trailer with a clutch of fellow tourists and listen to dictation over a loudspeaker. There are a great many options for you. If you truly want to delve into the place, the Navajo and Anasazi cultures and the spiritual dimensions of Monument Valley I can’t imagine a better way to find that than Navajo Spirit Tours.

Our guide, Sean was amazing and adapted very well to the adults and the kids in our small group. He was very knowledgeable and answered honestly to everybody's questions. He has a deep understanding of both worlds and he softly underlined the importance of respecting the Navajo people traditions without making anyone feels guilty. We could have listen to him for hours, we learned so much! We all came back delighted to have seen multiple arches, landscapes, walked in the heavy mud (lot of fun for the kids), saw a few tracks, heard Sean play the traditional flute.... We joined a morning tour in Monument Valley and an afternoon tour in Mystic Valley both times with Sean. We were afraid the afternoon tour could be redundant but it was absolutely not. Thumbs up to Navajo Spirit tours and Sean who made this day a wonderful memory for our family!

We just completed a sunrise tour and I would rate them 6 of 5 stars if possible. Our guide, Larry, was very knowledgeable and shared info on the Navajo culture and history. We were very lucky as Larry shared a traditional song about a white buffalo which was beautiful, especially in the setting of an amazing arch. Larry was also very helpful in getting those perfect pics. If you visit Monument Valley Tribal Park, make sure you book a tour with Navajo Spirit Tours. It's important to note that nearly all the tour is in the back country that you can't access without a guide, so even if you drive the valley tour road, you'll only see the sights we did by taking the tour.
