My wife and I took this tour and it was far above any of our expectations. Sabrina, our guide, was top notch. She was most informative and provided us plenty of time to take photos. Seeing Monument Valley is one thing. But taking this tour opens up a greater appreciation of the expanse and beauty hidden in areas usually not acccessable to many visitors. This tour is worth every penny and we'd recommend it to everyone visiting the area.

We did this tribal tour with a Navajo guide, Marjorie Gray. She was a delight! She encouraged us to take time to get as many pictures as we wanted, had great stories about the area and rock formations, was very knowledgeable, answered all our questions and took us to areas not open to the general public. Highly recommend this tour with Marjorie!!

Margery was very insightful and able to fulfill our excitement about seeing Monument Valley and learning Navajo history. She did not rush us and assisted with photographs.
