We chose Simpson Tours as they offered a late afternoon tour, which fit in with our drive to Monument Valley from Mesa Verde. They offered both a standard 2 hour tour as well as a 4 hour “Dreamcatcher Tour” which included the 2 hour tour as well as a Navajo dinner, cultural focus, and music and dancing. I called the owner, Ralph, a few days ahead of time and he explained the tours in great detail. We did the Dreamcatcher, and this was a true highlight of our 2 1/2 week Grand Circle trip! Jamie, our guide, drove us in an open truck around the standard monuments, as well as into the backcountry areas accessible only to the Native American guides. He was full of humorous anecdotes, and took us to amazing vistas, rock formations, petroglyphs, and other sites we never imagined finding in Monument Valley. The last half of the tour was at the base of a cliff with a campfire and Navajo Tacos, much of which was cooked over the fire. This was probably the tastiest meal we had on our trip. After dinner, Harold Simpson, the founder of Simpson Tours, came and discussed Navajo heritage and life, both past and present, and this was followed by amazing drumming, chanting, and dancing by Harold and Jamie. Don’t miss this tour. Simpson Tours does an incredible job for a very reasonable price.
