Would recommend & thank you, Larry

Published on Jan, 2025

The tour was very informative and I loved listening to the stories and rich history. Our guide, Larry, was very helpful and took wonderful photos of my family. You visit several interesting sites and even our 7yo was enjoying herself. Overall, a really good experience that contributed to a good end of the year trip!

Expansive, fun and Introspective

Published on Dec, 2024

FANTASTIC! Very informational, expansive, fun and introspective. Thank you for inviting us to your realm and sharing your culture, We were shown around the land learning the different mesas and buttes. In addition, we visited a Hogan and heard stories of the past and how the inhabitants of the area are living today. Bruce was entertaining, informative, wise and offered an incredible experience, While we were under a natural arch, he sang a native song about people coming together, honoring the earth, and respecting one another. It was incredibly moving and impactful. Please seek him out - he is fun, and a wise sage. This is a must have experience when traveling to this part of the country.

A DAY TO REMEMBER

Published on Dec, 2024

We had such a great time! Of course we are familiar with some of the iconic Monument Valley rock formations from the film world, but hearing Comasheena's stories and learning a bit of history brings it all to life! Naturally, we took a zillion photos-and Comasheena took lots of all of us so we had nice pictures of ourselves! Mystery Valley is very special and not to be missed. Many twists and turns in the road add to the excitement. Comasheena showed us Anasazi ruins and we were able to climb up in places and peek inside! The light is always changing, making splendid photos. Toward the end of the day we visited a Hogan, where we were treated to some native philosophy, fragrant burnings, and the structure of the Hogan-super interesting. Thanks so much for a wonderful day!

Always wanted to visit Monument Valley and were thankful that we decided to use a local Navajo guide.

Published on Dec, 2024

Obviously, the views and photos were fantastic. Our Navajo Guide, Cheryl, was great. She is very knowledgeable, super personable, kind, thoughtful and fun to be with. If we were ever to come back for a subsequent tour, we would ask for her to be our guide.

An in-depth study of our Nations Past.

Published on Dec, 2024

Our guide was named Bruce. He was extremely knowledgeable and my family really enjoyed the tour. I had been to Monument Valley Tribal Park before but it was not part of a tour. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone wanting to discovery a true gem in our national and natural history.
