We really enjoyed our tour. Very informative and beautiful. Sandrea was a wonderful guide and did a great job driving us through sand and rough roads. Sandrea also shared history of the land and just gave us lots of information about the Navajo. I would definitely recommend this tour.

We did a tour with Sandrea. She was wonderful! Not only did she take us to the major spots in the valley and give us all sorts of information, but the back country aspect added so much! She shared some special spots not on the regular tour and taught us about the culture of the Navajo both now and in the past. Our appreciation and enjoyment of Monument Valley was enhanced so much! She made a number of suggestions for great pictures, too. Great experience!

The tribal tour is the way to go, as you have the opportunity to see areas that are closed off to the public. By doing so, one can experience the entire park, rather than just the public scenic drive. Our tour Gide did a truly exceptional job by showing us the extraordinary sites.
