Embark on a photographer's dream with this combo Lower Antelope Canyon admission ticket to and guided walking tour with a Navajo guide. Get a rare, up-close look at the water-carved sandstone walls of one of the most visited canyons. Over the years, Lower Antelope Canyon has become a favorite gathering place for photographers, tourists, and visitors from around the world. The Navajo name for Lower Antelope Canyon is Hasdeztwazi or “Spiral Rock Arches.” This picturesque canyon has been created over many thousands of years by the relentless forces of water and wind, slowly carving and sculpting the sandstone into forms, textures, and shapes, all of which you’ll get to observe during your visit. The views in Lower Antelope Canyon change constantly as the sun moves across the sky, filtering lights softly across the stone walls. These ever-moving sun angles bounce light back and forth across the narrow canyon’s walls, creating a dazzling display of color, light, and shadow. For photographers, with proper exposures, you can bring out the best in your own creativity. For aspiring or non-photographers alike, there is a magical new world to explore and immerse yourself in.

We all had a great time! As if seeing the Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon wasn’t amazing enough, our comedian guide Ralph truly made the day so much fun and had us all cracking up the whole way. What an unexpected and hilarious add to an already memorable day. We’ll be rooting for Ralph to make it to the big time!!!

Great tour, gives you enough time to take photos at the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon and the food was also good. Remember to check the weather before your tour as it can be really cold or really hot. The bus has good air conditioning so it was really nice and comfortable.
