Southwest at its best
Joe was an awesome guide. Very knowledgeable and great sense of humor. Learn alot about the history of Monument Valley.
An amazing, fun, and educational tour made special by Joseph’s expertise
The Monument Valley Backcountry Tour was amazing,informative, fun, and smooth from start to finish. Joseph did an incredible job navigating the rough terrain while making the experience exciting and comfortable. He also gave us a deeper understanding of the history, culture, and Native life in the area. His photography skills made the experience even more special. I would absolutely recommend this tour, especially with Joseph as your guide!
The best!
Great trip! John was our guide. He was great! Can't wait to go again!
Superb MV 4x4 ride!
So glad we booked the tour rather than trying to complete the drive ourselves. This is off road, full stop, and not worth risking the rental car. In addition the tour guide told you plenty throughout and took us off the main road meaning we could stop at some arches and an awesome sand dune to run up. Great tour!
