    Genevieve M.

    *Definitely a bucket list to-do *Expect a good 10-15 min walk generally exposed to direct sun to get to the canyon and back... in sandy conditions. *Recommend sturdy shoes *The canyon itself is majestic and magical and a beautiful piece of nature's art. * The experience you have depends on: your attitude, day/time you visit, being honest with yourself about your ability to climb and deal with narrow spaces and people. *And talking about people... depending of the day/time ... there maybe lots of people and you maybe shoulder to shoulder in some areas. *You also have to have patience when people decide to hold up lines and spaces to pose for their insta social media or take their 900th picture in 10 min at every turn... because you may become that person too... so no judgement... just patience * If you visit on a weekend or holiday/ holiday week you can guarantee it is going to be crowded. *Hydrate, have fun and revel in this beautiful space

    Navajo handshake with Tracy

    I've been to Antelope Canyon before, so I went into the tour not expecting much -- but I was pleasantly wrong. Our guide Tracy was incredibly knowledgeable, not only about the science and history of the canyon, but also about Navajo culture. She started by demonstrating how the canyon was formed using water and sand before we even headed down. As we walked through the canyon, she shared photos and stories about things like Kokopelli, traditional Diné textiles, and the pronghorns from which the canyon gets its name. She even played the flute for us just as Navajo traders did all those years ago! Even though the canyon was crowded and slow-moving at times, Tracy never wasted a moment. She filled the quieter stretches with fun facts and took amazing photos for everyone (she had the camera settings on lock). Without her, I probably would've walked away with a few nice pictures and sandy shoes. But because of her, this became an unforgettable memory. Ahéhee Tracy! You were phenomenal. 진짜 극추천입니다. 너무 재밌었고 풍경만 즐기는 게 아니라 저희 가이드 트레이시 덕분에 많은 걸 배우는 뜻깊은 시간이었어요. 혹시 아리조나에 오신다면 망설이지 마시고 투어 꼭 하세요!

    Jourdain was amazing! I learned so much and captured great photos. He played his flute and it was an amazing experience.

    Keanu was amazing!!! You need to do this tour- worth the travel here and the cost. He even taught us how to take the best pics :)

    I'm torn about what to rate the experience. I settled on 5 because the landscape and formations are so incredible, they supersede anything a human could do to ruin in. Take the drive to this remote area of AZ. Stop at horseshoe bend and also check out the Colorado River. This slot canyon is incredible. The way the sun interacts with the canyon walls is impossible to explain and must be experienced in person. The route consists of a short walk to 7 flights of metal stairs. Walking the narrow passageways, we stopped periodically for a hard to hear story or pictures. The guide was accommodating and took many pics for us, however he was so far ahead at times that made it difficult to hear about the history. Oh well. I let nature speak for itself. It's worth the drive for sure

    Jourdain was an amazing guide who kept us safe, educated, and engaged ! All our pictures he took came out amazing and I especially enjoyed the Native American flute song he played for us. Definitely would recommend !

    The tour starts with a hoop dance for everyone to enjoy. You are then paired with and local guide who escorts you through the canyon. Sjodin was our guide through the canyon and was very friendly chipper and excited to feed us history about the canyon and the natives. She made the trip very fun and exciting. She gave us opportunity's to take pictures in spots she knew would create treasured memories. If you haven't been it's well worth the drive. You will enjoy the scenery and learn about the natives and the history on the southwest. Please visit the website to understand the does and don'ts. A must visit in my opinion. BTW the walk isn't tough but there are stairs

    Karlee B.

    Totally worth the price. This is such a unique experience and I love that the Navajo are the ones providing the tour. They share tons of information on the landscape, their procedure and tips and tricks for taking the best pictures.

    ABSOLUTELY BEYOND WORDS INCREDIBLE. First of all, if you go to lower antelope canyon, AND AS A FELLOW NAVAJO WOMAN, I would sooooooo heavily encourage you to ONLY support Dixie Ellis Lower Antelope Tours. This company is Navajo owned and employees are about 90% Navajo. ALSO this is sacred Navajo land. I truly hope you spread the word to everyone about this. There are companies that offer this tour and have access but it's not native owned and there for doesn't support native lands or culture or people. I also over heard some of the tour guides from the other one, and they lack respect. Our tour guide, Cedric, is Navajo and was the insanely perfect. He was knowledgeable and culture oriented with true Navajo culture facts/ history, sharing our culture proudly and with intent to honor. The lands here are sacred, this canyon is where our wind and water gods reside so the essential importance of holding this in mind and heart is so gravitationally important that I can't stress it enough. So thank goodness there is a Navajo based company to uphold this tradition. The building itself is a larger HOGAN which is a Navajo traditional home and incorporates many traditional aspects in the design and decor. The gift shop has plenty of traditional based books and more. I felt proud to speak my language here and share this with my friends. Thank you in big part to the staff including mostly Cedric. The building is well kept, bathrooms available. No WiFi, atm on sight and portapotties nearby. You cannot enter the canyon without a pass or guide, no videos!!!!!!!! And be present!!!! Tip your guides and be respectful! Spread the word about this business over others. I hope you love this land as much as I do. This share and review is beyond words as my heart feels more than it could express. Thank you for your support of this business.

    Dixie's antelope canyon tour was an amazing experience. Our tour guide Armondo was just as amazing full of knowledge and passion about the canyon. He truly made the experience ten times better than expected. Highly recommend booking your lower canyon tour with them. I hope to come back in the future and experience the canyon again with Dixie's.

    A definite must-see for those visiting Page or making the roughly four-hour drive from Phoenix. The canyon views were absolutely breathtaking -- no photo can truly capture the experience. Our tour guide was equally impressive, adding to an already memorable visit.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ I highly recommend buying your ticket online, weeks in advance. We went at 2:15 to catch the sunny skies.

    Bella T.

    Our tour guide was very nice and told us all about the lower antelope canyon, pointing out shapes of the rocks along the way and even showing us where Britney Soears filmed one of her music videos. The tour itself was pretty easy. There are some stairs along the way and tight spaces, but otherwise, it's a pretty flat walk. The directions on our reservation told us to arrive 45 minutes before our tour, but I don't think that's necessary. 20 minutes would have been fine because check in took less than 5 minutes. I liked the gift shop and indoor exhibits. The tour seemed well-organized.

    What a magical and unique experience! Our guide Lino was fantastic and taught us so much throughout the tour. This was a highlight of our family vacation. 100% recommend!

    How is the security of the parking lot? Safe to leave a boat there while on the tour?

    I would think so! There's plenty of staff around and in the building.

    Where do you put your water, cash, and camera if no bags are allowed?

    You can purchase a clear bag of $10 for your things or bring your own clear bag.

    Are pets allowed on the tour?

    I highly doubt it they allow pets. I did not see any on our tour. You have to climb down ladders, quite steep in places, it would be near impossible unless you were carrying the animal. I would plan to not take an pet.

    Is this infant friendly, I am bringing my two year old with us?

    Check this first and imagine 10x the crowd. You don't see a crowd here because photographers have an exclusive pass time where it's just them. https://youtu.be/QmUKF0NXb4o… Read more

Cost was $86.00 and up depending on which tour you want to do with a minimal wait to go down into these spectacularly sculptured colored walls. There is a gift shop and cafe you can grab a cold beverage and a bite of food that is worth visiting. *NOTE* You must check in 30 minutes prior to your tour time AND you can only bring a water bottle and a camera/cellphone . Put your keys in your pocket and leave everything else in your car. Wear shoes you can walk through sand to get to site and that you can climb down and up ladders. This is a very busy tour but well worth it. The tour is on Navajo Tribal lands so please respect the land and those that work this tour and even more so when it's hot out.

The tour is already $45 but you have to go in with the guide. They yell at you to get to one side and even grab you to move you sometimes. There was a guy that wasn't a part of our group that got yelled at for walking to slow. He turned around and told the tour lady he was taking a picture and she said she he stopped and held up the line. He was getting mad saying what's the point of coming in here if not for pictures. There's only one way in and one way out. As you're walking in there's other people exiting and squeezing through. You're limited to taking one photo at each spot and if it doesn't Come out good they tell you too bad you should've had your camera settings right. The tour lady pushed me to the side of the wall at one point as she screamed at everyone to get to the right. There's a photography tour price of $160 which looks like they get better treatment. They block the tourists so the photographers could get their shots. If you ask me there's too many people inside at once. We came here back in 2007 and there wasn't nearly as many people inside so you had some wiggle room. I think the Navajos are being a bit greedy trying to fit all these tours in. They should limit how many people go in per hour so you could at least breathe and enjoy it. The tour lady wasn't the only one yelling. The other tour guys were also yelling at their people. I understand everyone wants a picture but there's no need to be rude. Maybe if they managed their tours better for the crowd control they wouldn't have to be like this. At one point I heard the tour lady say a bunch of us were being annoying. Geez if this place wasn't so nice I doubt people would come. I keep reading the lower AC is better. I will have to check it out. For now I don't think I would recommend this to anyone unless you are prepared to be rushed and crammed into tight spaces. Or perhaps you enjoyed being yelled at and stressed throughout your trip. They even ask for tips after it's over... It's not like they don't make money off of this place already. Shaking my head...

She shared fascinating insights about the canyon, Navajo history, and even local flora and fauna, weaving stories throughout the trip that made everything feel meaningful and immersive. The tour begins with about a 15-minute drive to the canyon in either a Sprinter van or large SUV. Once there, the walk through the canyon takes about an hour. The hike itself isn't long, but there are currently around seven different tour companies, so everyone pauses frequently for photos (for good reason!). The route is a one-way loop, you enter from one side, exit the other, then walk up a short trail and down some stairs around a small mountain to return to the vehicles. I suggest wearing good shoes. Helpful tips we learned from Quana: There are two main Antelope Canyons: Upper and Lower. This tour company only offers tours of the Upper Canyon, which is shaped like an "A" (narrow at the top, wider at the bottom), making it easier to walk through. The famous light beams shining straight down only occur during monsoon season (July-October). The Lower Canyon, on the other hand, is shaped like a "V" with a much narrower floor. It often requires sand to be added for footing and is more prone to flooding after rain, which can lead to cancellations. Because of this, it's important to book your tour with weather in mind, clearer skies make the colors pop so much more. Quana didn't just share this knowledge, she also helped us adjust our camera settings, gave us the best photography tips, and was kind enough to take multiple photos for us. I truly left this tour feeling inspired, excited about Navajo culture, and grateful for such an incredible guide. If you can, request Quana, she made all the difference. I sincerely hope I get to come back one day. Thank you, Quana!!

    This review is for Adventurous Antelope Canyon Tours (AACT) exclusively. Antelope Canyon, a…read moremajestic locale, has its own Yelp page. Several weeks before visiting page, I booked a reservation with AACT online. When visiting Antelope Canyon, you are required to take a tour. Without a tour reservation (which I recommend that you book well in advance), you can't go to Antelope Canyon. Located on Navajo land, there are several different tour guide companies available. They each have different prices, different times, and slightly different tours. AACT offered the best option for my schedule. On the day of our tour, we stopped by 20 minutes early as requested. After checking in, there was a little time to check out their gift shop and go to the bathroom (portapotties only). From there, we got into our comfortable, air-conditioned van and made our way to Antelope Canyon. Our tour guide was fantastic. He was a cool guy, shared a good amount of history about Antelope Canyon, and provided a lot of photo opps to everyone on the tour (we had a group of 15 people or so). He knows all of the right angles and the correct phone set up to give you the best pictures possible inside the canyon. Which was definitely much appreciated! My only complaint, and this applies to all of the tour companies, is that the tours are quite expensive. In addition to your tour, you also have to pay a fee to go on the reservation, and then an additional fee on top of that. It's like going to a concert where you're paying all of these extra fees in addition to the main act which sucks. Given how popular Antelope Canyon has become, people will buy at the price point. I just wish it was a bit more affordable.
