Ty was our tour guide at Antelope Canyon and he was AH-MAZING! He was so informative and should have been a photographer. He told everyone in our group where to stop for photos and was patient to take pictures for everyone! To say it's beautiful doesn't do Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend justice. If you are in the area, do your self a favor and take this tour.

Best time to go: April - September. Try to plan this trip with other sites in the area. Horseshoe: 0.5 mile walk down to look out, you don't need a guide, just pay the park fee. Glenn Dam: its just a dam. Lower: Pros - cool rock formations, fossils, Navajo culture and history (if you have the right tour guide), Cons: NOT for children, elderly or people with physical restrictions. You will be required to climb up and down 6 flights of VERY steep narrow stairs. Upper: Pros - no physical restrictions, beautiful outside landscape Cons: the time of year will greatly impact your photos. Overall: Both canyons have iconic rock formations and take beautiful photos. Lower has a more open ceiling, is deeper and cooler, Upper is more A frame with lots of narrow twists and turns. The guides are well versed in how to take photos with smart phones and are very helpful. But it would have been cool our drivers for these locations gave us history or cultural information about the Navajo Nation.

I had a great time exploring Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend. The view is breathtaking on a sunny day. The service of my Navajo tour guide is professional and friendly. Glad to support the local Navajo community. The itinerary is also well-planned. I got to check out all the attractions, yet I didn't feel too rush or tired. 5 stars recommendation!
