We took a Thanksgiving day tour with Marcia to Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. Marcia was very relaxed and patient and she really accommodated her customers. For example, she stopped at an overlook when a person in the group requested it so that he could take pictures.
Our first stop was Horseshoe Bend. Marcia was realistic about the crowds and gave us accurate times that it would take to walk to the end and return. After Horseshoe Bend, we had a packed lunch at the Glen Canyon Dam. Lunch was good and plentiful. Next, we made our way to Antelope Canyon, where Marcia prepared us for a long wait (which was really quite worth it).
Marcia really made the trip! Throughout the drive, she shared her vast knowledge of the area (geographical, natural and cultural), and she did a great job making connections with the various members of the tour group. I am not the type to take a tour normally, as I am more of a do it yourself traveler, but for the amount of activities we squeezed into one day, I would definitely recommend this tour to other travelers. Marcia even asked all of the parties of the group what their plans entailed for the coming days, and then made recommendations accordingly. I am happy to say that she recommended Wupatki National Monument and Sunset Crater to us for the following day. We heeded her recommendation and had a great drive through these 2 areas.
