The lower antelope canyon might be prettier than the upper… our guide, Brian S at Ken’s Tours, was a native Navajo who made the canyon come alive with his childhood stories of running through it with his friends. He gave fantastic history of the people and the canyon while we journeyed through. On top of it all, he was like our personal family photographer- posing us in all the most picturesque places where he knew the light would be just right… we expected little and got so much. Can’t recommend enough! With two small children, the lower canyon was completely safe as long as they can make the 4 steep staircases down into the canyon. Once inside, no problems whatsoever. We toured at 11:30am and the lighting inside could not have been dreamier. Book this tour!! It was short, stunning, and educational for any age.
