Our guide, Shawn Holiday, was simply the best of the best. His knowledge of history and geology brought the land to life in a way I'll never forget. He didn't just guide us--he immersed us in the experience. From sharing stories and cultural insights to playing the flute in the canyon, every moment felt meaningful and authentic. Shawn also had an incredible eye for photography. He took us to breathtaking locations and helped capture some of the most unforgettable photos our family will ever have. Traveling with my wife and two daughters, I couldn't have asked for a better guide--he was thoughtful, polite, and deeply respectful as he shared Navajo customs and traditions with us. The beauty of this place is beyond words--you truly have to see it to believe it. Being there also gave me a deeper appreciation for the rich history of the Indigenous people who lived in harmony with this land, trading far and wide and honoring nature as one. That spirit is still present, and it's something that deserves respect and recognition. I feel incredibly lucky to have experienced this tour with Shawn. It's something I will carry with me forever. I hope to see continued opportunities and prosperity for the Navajo people in the future--they are the true stewards of this land, and their culture is something the world can learn so much from. If you're considering this tour--don't hesitate. It's unforgettable.

Navajo Spirit Tours offers absolutely top-notch tours of Monument Valley. Our tour guide, Mr. Will…read moreCowboy, was much more than a guide; he's a Navajo cultural educator, historian, excellent navigator of deeply rutted dirt roads, and patient answerer of questions. Not only that, he's a musician; he sang a Navajo song to us to wish us a safe journey while we were in the "Big Hogan" (a large ampitheater size space created by natural erosion and with great acoustics). His passion for his people and his culture truly left a mark on our consciousness that will never be forgotten. Of course, the scenery was also truly stunning. The driving itself was extremely bumpy but I'd say it's like getting an amusement park ride thrown in for free. We were also treated to a demonstration of Navajo arts and crafts by Loretta in her hogan, truly a special moment. Taking a Navajo Spirit tour couldn't be easier and the staff was very responsive to my questions about booking. This is a must-see activity if you're in the area. I can't wait to go back.

I am a Utah native now living back east and have visited all of the Big Five but never Monument Valley. I have wanted to visit for many years and finally did it. Our guide was Tony he raised broken-field driving to a new level. The drive up and back to and back from the mesa was an experience my son and I will never forget, as I'm sure anybody who has done it will agree. Once we were on-site at the mesa, Tony dropped us off at sunset point and came back later to take us to the campsite. He then prepared a great dinner and regaled us with stories of Navajo culture and legends. The next morning, he walked us the sunrise point for more photographs. As we are both photographers, everything about Monument Valley was astounding but Hunt's Mesa is in a class by itself. We have never seen such incredible landscapes and hopefully captured it with our cameras. Tony was a major element in the success of this trip; he has professional, competent, knowledgeable and friendly. We believe he went out of his way to show us his home. We cannot say enough good things about him and highly recommend Monument Valley Safari!

However, our tour guide, Larry, took the 3 of us in his 4x4 SUV. It was our own private tour. Larry did an exceptional job explaining everything about the monuments and the Navajo tribe. He occasionally stopped to allow us to take pics and even took pics for us, including panoramic pics. We stopped at a place where we bought authentic Navajo fry bread with butter and honey. It was delicious and much bigger than we imagined. I would recommend this tour and our guide, Larry. If we had more time, we would've taken the extended tour.

And an outdoor kitchen, which had photos of famous singers and nice flowers hanging. Aaron's dogs and horse were also friendly and great to hang out with. The stars were beautiful and bright, and the sunrise over the monuments was lovely. Tipi Village is located right next to Monument Valley, just across the state line in Utah.

The first full day we toured Monument Valley from before sunrise until after sunset, going to various points of interest. I was exhausted but got some incredible shots! The next day two friends and I left with Ray to go on an overnight trip up to Hunts Mesa to shoot sunset and sunrise pictures of Monument Valley from that point of view. Not only did Ray put us in some amazing locations, but the food that he made, both dinner and breakfast were wonderful. I really can't recommend Ray Begay more highly. He's lived in Monument Valley, his whole life, he's a photographer, and he really knows how to help you find exactly what you're looking for.

We spent…read moreyesterday on our own checking out the front section of the valley and loved it (did the 17 mile loop twice). Today we elected to do a guided tour so we could see areas closed unless you have a guide. We were particularly interested in learning more about Navajo Culture. Our guide Amory was great. He interspersed bits and pieces of his own experiences with details of Navajo history and practices. We learned of the days of his youth - herding sheep and goats, as well as tales of how the Navajo people communicate their culture and values to children. He has a great eye for photogenic opportunities and taught us some clever tricks to use with our iPhones. The front of the park, where you can do a self guided tour is phenomenal. You can easily spend four to eight hours taking in the unique geological formations. But, you can't see some of the truly amazing sites deeper in the park unless you hire a guide. (I'll attach photos of Big Hogan, Ear of the Gods, and a few other spots only viewable with a guide.)

The scenery is fantastic as you are surrounded by beautiful towering red rocks on all sides. I did a separate review of the restaurant which was unique and deli.

It's about little over a mile away from the park and not to steep. I believe there's about a 100' elevation change. As far as the park goes, our site was pretty level with a picnic table and fire pit. My wife said that the laundry room was very clean but was a little pricier than most places we've stayed in the past few years. The indoor pool was nice but a bit chilly, there's an outdoor area to soak up the sun. Be sure you bring plenty of groceries as the local market is a bit pricey.

Fantastic views that will make your stay truly memorable. The price is $20 bucks, but the views make it priceless. If we ever come through this area this will be the only place we will consider. The entrance road is a little rough, but if you take your time it is nothing to drive in. Sites are far apart & mostly level. All dirt sites, but well packed. Owner owns most of the land around the campground 250ac so he is ok with you hiking all of it as long as you stay away from his family's homes. He was very informative on things to do in area. Easy drive to Monument Valley, Bears Ears, Natural Bruges, Gooseneck State park, too many things to post here. This is a 1st come gets the sites only, no reservations. We were there in Oct., pulled in had the Campground to ourselves. The four days we were there we saw only 5 other campers. The sunrise & sunsets are to die for. There is one portable potty on site, clean, but we didn't use it. People not in RV's were. Campfires were allowed & you can bring your own wood. Do not harm local junipers or gather wood. Some of my pics show the formation that is the camps name sake. Our dogs loved the freedom of running around when there were no others on site. **there are reservation dogs roaming around & livestock, so please be respectful to others **everything you bring in you MUST pack out **some sites will accommodate large RVs ours was 31ft. **the stars are amazing, even seeing the Milky Way, no light pollution. **there is NO internet, cable, & our phone service was sketchy Owner or family member will come to take your money, there are no pay stations. You will love this campground due to views, peacefulness, distance from others, just a total immersion into the environment.
