We had a fantastic whole day with our Navajo guide and driver Sandrea in Monument Valley and Mystery Valley. Sandrea is very kind and fun to be with and explained us many interesting things about the impressive scenery and the Navajo history and culture. Also she picked the best spots for us to make really great pictures. Last but not least she a great driver who made us feel very safe!

We were staying at the KOA. The driver/guide was prompt at 8 am at the KOA to pick us up. The two mile drive in the open air seats at 40 degrees was chilly but everyone was awake when we made it to the Tribal lands. Sandrea our guide was very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions we had on the Navajo culture. The views of the buttes and mesas from the valley are amazing. Highlight of the trip was or guide singing a Navajo song in the Big Hogan rock formation!

Hey there! Thanks so much for the review. Is it possible to bump us back up to five stars if you had a great time? Leaving anything less then a five star rating brings down our companies reputation and has a big impact on us on trip advisor. If you can please just rate how the tour went we would be so grateful. Our company means a lot to us. We want to remain a top company. We also only allow tours to go out on open aired vehicles when the weather is over 50 degrees. We are listening to our customers and care for your satisfaction! Thank you!!!
