A wonderful tour to get to know the Monument Valley and its spectacular landscapes in depth and the best of all was the magnificent Navajo guide who took us, LARRY, giving extensive and enjoyable explanations of all the places we stopped and telling us the beautiful history of the Navajo Nation. It has been an unforgettable experience I definitely recommend Tribal Tours and their guide Larry to anyone who decides to visit that magical place that is Monument Valley.

Larry was fabulous! We were lucky enough to be alone with him during the tour (February being low season). It was magical! We were able to learn a lot more about the Navajo people, their culture and their history. Larry showed us the most beautiful and fun places in Monument Valley. He even shared a Navajo song with us. And was a great photographer during the 3 hours! A huge thank you to Larry who we can only recommend 🌞

The tour was a direct hit. Certainly because of the views, but also because of the guide-driver Larry. Motivated explanation with the necessary humor. As Belgians we taught him to say in Dutch: time to go. He would repeat this when we had to continue after a stop. Beautiful! Thank you Larry!
