Monument Valley Extended Backcountry Tour

We had an absolutely incredible experience with the Extended Sunset Tour in Monument Valley. The tour lasted about three hours, and we arrived just as the first golden lights of sunset were appearing — an absolutely breathtaking and emotional moment. Our guide was Larry, who was incredibly knowledgeable, excellent at explaining everything, and truly passionate and profound in the way he shared the history, culture, and meaning of Monument Valley. Thanks to him, we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the experience and appreciate every single detail of this extraordinary place. This is absolutely not just a typical tourist tour. The Navajo Tribal Tours team genuinely wants you to understand and appreciate the true value, beauty, and cultural significance of Monument Valley. One of the highlights was reaching a special area where Larry played the flute. The sound of the flute, combined with the incredible surroundings and the natural echo, created a truly unforgettable and deeply moving experience. We enjoyed the tour immensely and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Monument Valley. It was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. Unfortunately, we weren't able to leave Larry a tip because we didn't have any cash with us, which we really regretted — we would have been more than happy to leave him one. He truly deserved it!

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Monument Valley Tribal Tours. Our guide Larry was outstanding — knowledgeable, passionate, and a natural storyteller. His tales about the Navajo people and the history of Monument Valley made the entire landscape come alive in a way no guidebook ever could. The highlight was Larry playing traditional Navajo flute music during the tour — a truly magical moment in the middle of the desert with the Mittens rising behind us. The Extended Backcountry Tour was extremely well organized, lasting over 3 hours and covering areas completely inaccessible by private vehicle. We saw landmarks we never would have found on our own. Highly recommended — Ask for Larry

Larry is a great driver. Lot of fun

This tour far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Travis, was authentic, incredibly knowledgeable, and made the entire tour feel like a truly personal experience — exactly what you hope for in a great guide. One of the absolute highlights was the magical musical moment he created for us inside the Big Hogan. It was something genuinely special. We couldn’t recommend this tour — and especially Travis as a guide — highly enough. Worth every penny!

The Navajo guide was well spoken, intelligent and an original Navajo. He knew his culture well and got deep in his roots. I was not disappointed and respect the culture more than before.
