First I want to say that the round trip from and back to Sedona was great. Could you drive this on your own yes, but you don't get the history of the area that you do when you have a guide. Plus you can sit back and enjoy the beautiful county side . Our guide was wonderful. Not only did he give us the history of the area, but he had stories of all the old timers that had lived in the area that he had met and spent time with. Loved the stories. Horseshoe Bend was beautiful and he gave us plenty of time to hike the 1 mile and back. What I was disappointed with was the Antelope Canyon photography part of the tour. I am in to photography, I wanted to take my time and get that right picture. But we were with a group of people of 14, we had to stay in the tour and we had a group of 14 in front of us and a group behind us. No stopping to really get that special picture. That part of the tour is on the Indian land and they are your guides. If you just shot pictures with your phone, you would have not problem with this tour. I did get some good pictures, but not what I wanted. If you are a photographer and want to spend more time in the Canyon, I would say make special arrangements with the tribe in Page. Over all I do recommend this tour.
