Antelope Canyon is the most-visited and most-photographed slot canyon in the American Southwest, with many lovely sights to see and a rich history to explore. At Antelope Canyon Navajo Tours, we provide tourists with enriching tours of Upper Antelope Canyon — the most popular of the two slot canyons that make up Antelope — led by members of the Navajo Nation who are highly knowledgeable when it comes to the Canyon and Navajo culture. The Guided Sightseers Tour is great for all kinds of visitors and is discounted for children under 13.
Our tours offer a well-rounded experience that allows travelers to venture inside the Canyon, which is a sacred site of the Navajo people that is accessible only by permit and while accompanied by a tour guide.
