MEMORABLE TOUR

We toured the Upper Antelope Canyon. Connie was an amazing guide, offering camera tips, history and geography lessons, and making us feel welcome. We really appreciated the respect for the land, beauty, weather, and culture that she conveyed. Truly a memorable tour!

a close up of a logo

This was worth every penny! The canyon is breathtaking. The tour was well organized. Roman was a great guide. Our group had a few health issues, but he was patient and made it all work by making the drive as unbumpy as possible and offered walking options on the return out of the canyon.

INCREDIBLE TOUR

Greatly enjoyed my tour at Upper Antelope Canyon. Chris was an incredible guide. She let us have time to take as many photos as we wanted and took some great pictures of us. We weren’t rushed through at all and being in a small group made it so much more enjoyable!

BUCKET LIST TRIP

Explored Rattlesnake Canyon with our tour guide Roman and it was amazing! Roman was a terrific guide. Our photos turned out amazing, and Roman did a great job pointing our features inside the Canyon. Well worth the drive, time, and the money! Can't recommend this tour enough!

The 11 best antelope canyon tours.

In order to see Antelope Canyon, you'll need to book a guided tour.

Smooth curvature of the canyon created by river erosion and the colours of the earth made this place unbelievably photogenic.

Key Takeaways

  • The only way to see Antelope Canyon is with a guided tour.
  • Tours go to the Upper Canyon (which is most poular), Lower Canyon or Canyon X.
  • Most tours depart from Page, Arizona, but you can also book day trips from Las Vegas and Sedona.
  • When booking your tour, keep in mind that Antelope Canyon follows daylight saving time, unlike the rest of Arizona.

Known for its labyrinthine, seemingly undulating sandstone walls and the beams of sunlight that shine into them, Arizona's Antelope Canyon is a magnet for photographers and tourists traveling through the American Southwest.

The famous landmark forms part of Lake Powell Navajo Tribal Park in the LeChee Chapter of the Navajo Nation. As such, the Navajo Nation requires that visitors are led by authorized guides, who provide tours of the Upper Canyon, Lower Canyon and Canyon X. These tours depart from or close to Page, Arizona, though you can also find Antelope Canyon tours from Sedona and Las Vegas .

Note: Most of Arizona does not follow daylight saving time, though the Navajo Nation, where Antelope Canyon is located, does. Be sure to take this into account when planning your visit.

Upper Antelope Canyon Tours

Lower antelope canyon tours, antelope canyon x tours, antelope canyon tours from las vegas, antelope canyon tours from sedona, upper vs. lower antelope canyon.

Before choosing a tour, you'll need to decide which part of the canyon you'd like to see.

The terrain of the Upper Canyon is more accessible for most tourists and is, therefore, busier. Exploring the Lower Canyon , in contrast, requires visitors to have some degree of endurance, as travelers must climb and descend several staircases. Canyon X is less popular, but equally beautiful.

How to Get to Antelope Canyon

Upper Canyon: Companies that provide tours of the Upper Canyon are all based in or near Page, Arizona (where Antelope Canyon is located), and provide transportation. Travelers will need to drive to Page, as there is no public transportation. Drivers coming from the north or south can take Route 89, drivers from the west can take Route 89A, and visitors commuting from the east can take Route 98.

Lower Canyon: Companies serving the Lower Canyon are located within walking distance of the canyon's entrance; therefore, they do not provide transportation to or from Page. Travelers on a Lower Canyon tour will need to drive to the tour operator's location. These companies are about 5 miles east of Page.

Best Antelope Canyon Tours

Several local companies provide guided tours of Upper Antelope Canyon. Because the Upper Canyon is easiest to walk through, it is also quite popular, especially at peak times during the summer. Considering this, making tour reservations well in advance is highly recommended. No matter which tour you pick, you're guaranteed to see incredible rock formations in a kaleidoscope of colors.

The company's 1.5-hour sightseer tours of the Upper Canyon take place several times daily beginning at 7:30 a.m. Note that prices for the 11:40 a.m. tour are slightly higher, as this is peak time to explore the canyon.

The company opens up online reservations one to two months in advance, so be sure to book early, as tickets sell out quickly.

Antelope Canyon Tours – Upper Antelope Canyon Sightseeing Tour

Price: Adults from $85; kids from $75 Duration: 100 minutes

Navajo owned and operated, Antelope Canyon Tours frequently wins praise for its knowledgeable and helpful guides. On the company's sightseeing tours, you'll spend about an hour in the canyon, plus 40 minutes round-trip travel time to the Antelope Canyon Tours office in Page. Tours run multiple times daily starting at 7:50 a.m., and there is one moderately difficult, 15-minute uphill hike involved. Keep in mind: If you are unable to book a child's ticket, it means there are no more car seats available.

After seeing Upper Antelope Canyon, consider visiting Vermilion Cliffs National Monument with the company on its daylong tour.

Tips on Trips and Expert Picks

Travel tips, vacation ideas and more to make your next vacation stellar.

Best Antelope Canyon Tours

Two companies lead excursions through Lower Antelope Canyon. The path inside the Lower Canyon can be quite narrow, which may be an issue for visitors uncomfortable with confined spaces. Because of the relatively rugged nature of the terrain, pregnant people and those with heart or joint problems might want to skip these excursions. Along with a rigorous hike, participants on these tours will be surrounded by beautiful scenery and smooth, fabric-like walls throughout their trip.

Ken's Tours – General Tour

Price: Adults from $55; kids from $35 Duration: 1 hour

The General Tour offered by Ken's Tours lasts approximately one hour, during which groups of up to 10 tour-takers will hike about 1 mile. Tours depart daily from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and you'll need to arrive 30 minutes before departure to check in.

For more information about Navajo culture, book the Deluxe Tour. You'll not only spend an hour in the canyon, but you'll also visit the Hózhǫ́ Haz'ą́ Heritage Site and enjoy a meal. This tour costs approximately $135 per person. These tours depart five times daily (three in the morning and two in the afternoon). Guides are frequently described as informative and friendly and the scenery as unsurpassable.

Dixie's Lower Antelope Canyon Tours – Lower Antelope Canyon Hiking Tour

Price: Adults from $55; kids from $35 Duration: 1 to 1.5 hours

These hikes, which travelers say are led by knowledgeable and professional guides, usually last 60 to 90 minutes and cover about a mile. The walks depart from the company's booth near the canyon multiple times each day. Exact departure times vary by season.

Dixie Ellis also offers daylong van tours that combine the Lower Antelope Canyon Tour with visits to the Navajo National Monument and Monument Valley.

Best Antelope Canyon Tours

While the Upper and Lower portions of Antelope Canyon receive tons of fanfare, Antelope Canyon X promises stunning views without the hefty crowds. Antelope Canyon X – which gets its name from the X-shaped formation at the top of the canyon – is located within Antelope Canyon, so it still features the same geologic features the Upper and Lower areas are known for, but its relative anonymity makes it less of a tourist magnet.

Antelope Canyon X Taadidiin Tours

Price: Adults from $40; kids from $30 Duration: 1.5 hours

Antelope Canyon X Taadidiin Tours is the only operator running tours of Antelope Canyon X. It operates 1.5-hour small-group hikes through the canyon. Travelers rave about their visits to this site, and are particularly complimentary of the knowledgeable guides. Tours depart at multiple different times daily. Note that an additional $8 hiking permit is required for visitors ages 8 and older.

Photography enthusiasts can sign up for Taadidiin's Photo Tour, which spends three hours in the canyon and permits participants to bring a tripod and a camera bag. Fees start at about $125 per person.

Tour operators offer full and multiday excursions from Las Vegas that include Antelope Canyon as well as national parks and other iconic attractions.

Bindlestiff Tours - 3-Day National Parks Tour

Price: $875 Duration: 3 days

Depart Las Vegas for this three-day, two-night tour through Zion National Park , Bryce Canyon National Park and the Grand Canyon (where you'll have the option to take a helicopter ride ). The small-group tour also visits Monument Valley, with the option to add a Navajo-guided tour of Antelope Canyon.

Prices include transportation, some meals, a choice of camping or hotel accommodations at the Red Feather Lodge in Tusayan, camping equipment and national park entrance fees. Children must be at least 5 years old to join the tour.

Recent travelers raved about this tour, noting that Monument Valley and Antelope Canyon were their favorite parts of the experience.

Coexist West Coast - Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend

Price: From $280 Duration: 15 hours

Travelers have a choice between the Lower Canyon and Canyon X on this full-day tour from Las Vegas. Following your visit to Antelope Canyon – which is led by a certified Navajo guide – you'll head to nearby Horseshoe Bend for a short hike and more stellar views. Recent travelers appreciate the small group size of these tours, as well as the friendly guides.

Tour prices include round-trip transportation from Las Vegas hotels , attraction entrance fees and water.

Antelope Canyon is roughly three hours from Sedona, making it a great day trip. Many tour operators offer transportation from both Sedona and nearby Flagstaff.

This Antelope Canyon tour conveniently picks up from hotels in Sedona , Oak Creek Village and Flagstaff.

Antelope Canyon Tours

I visited the canyon for the second time with these folks, just as good if not better. My in-laws and wife were just as surprised as I was in 2014 (My first visit) at how beautiful the canyon was and how wonderful the service is. Would recommend, and props to our Tour Guide Rosie, you rock!

The tour through the Antelope Canyon is something you will never forget, pictures don't do it justice, as it is hard to catch the raw beauty before you. Our tour guide Rick was great, informative and help with capturing the best pictures possible.

We had a wonderful tour with Rosie. We took a morning tour in hopes of avoiding the crowds. It worked out perfectly. Rosie was informative and warm. She helped us get best photos, gave us interesting facts about the Navajo and the canyon, and we were not rushed through.

I went with a couple of friends from college, tour guide was nice, she explained many photographic opportunities, she was very knowledgable, weather was nice, we all loved the experience.

Our guide made our trip so interesting and fun. He was very knowledgeable and an excellent photographer. He showed us the best spots for pictures and advised us on the best camera settings. This trip is a "must" for every traveler lucky enough to see this part of the country. I highly recommend Antelope Canyon Tours!

Our tour was amazing. I highly recommend this tour if you are in Page. The colors of the Sandstone is truly unforgettable. The guides are very knowledgeable and Sonny was very helpful in making sure we had taken the best photo possible. Definitely a must-see!

Upper Antelope and the History of Antelope Canyon

Upper Antelope Canyon, which is also known as “The Crack,” is the most popular of the two slot canyons that make up Antelope Canyon. It is also the most-visited slot canyon in the American Southwest and the most-photographed in the world. The radiant sun beams that shine through its walls in the spring and summer are one of its main claims to fame, while its changing colors in the fall and winter are another mesmerizing sight to be seen. The Upper Canyon’s ease of access and lack of climbing also make it extremely popular with the family set as well as visitors who may require easy travel but still want an exciting experience in nature.

Antelope Canyon was formed over many hundreds of years by water that ran through sandstone, giving it its unique geography. Upper Antelope is called Tsé bighánílíní in Navajo, which can be translated to “The place where water runs through rocks” in English. Antelope Canyon got its name from the belief that Antelopes once grazed along the canyon in the winter.

Lower Antelope Canyon Tour

During my weekend out in Page, AZ I also visited the Lower Antelope Canyon. I mainly came to Page for the Horseshoe Bend of the Colorado River and to explore Lake Powell.

Near Page is a coal power plant and I saw it already on my drive towards Page. I drove there to check it out and see if it would be a great spot to take a photo of. On my way to the power plant I passed signs for Antelope Canyon and I did some research on it to find out what it actually is. You probably have seen pictures of Antelope Canyon  without even noticing where they were taken. Antelope Canyon is a so-called slot canyon. It was formed the same way as Horseshoe Bend. Water eroded through the softer layers of the Navajo Sandstone and formed this narrow canyon.

There are two canyons here. The upper and lower Antelope Canyon. Because the canyons are located on the Navajo Tribal Park grounds, you can only access them with a tour guide. The upper canyon tours were fully booked for that day. A young couple I met at Horseshoe Bend recommended to see the lower Antelope Canyon and go with Ken’s Tour. Besides the tour guide fee, there is an entrance fee to enter the tribal lands. If you are planning on visiting the upper canyon, save your receipt. Otherwise, you have to pay the entrance fee again for the upper canyon in addition to the tour guide.

Ken’s Tour is one of two tour companies offering tours into the lower canyon. The advantage of the lower canyon tours is the cheaper price, compared for the upper canyon. This is mainly because you can walk basically from the parking lot directly down to the canyon. For the upper canyon, you have to hop on board some kind of transportation to get to it in the first place. I toured the canyon with a new friend I just met the day before also at Horseshoe Bend.

adventure tours antelope canyon

You can make a reservation for the tours in advance or buy your tickets at the booth right outside of the main building of Ken’s Tours. We came here and bought our tickets at the counter and without reservation. There was no more space in the next tour going to the canyon but there were spots open in the following one.

Tours depart the building every 20 minutes from the waiting room inside. Once you have bought your tickets feel free to stroll around in the gift shop or have a small snack in the waiting area.

Have your ticket ready as your tour departure time is called. We got guided outside where the group split up in smaller groups with a tour guide for each group. Groups are 15 people or less per tour guide.

From there it’s a short walk to the entrance of the canyon. Right before we headed down a set of steep stairs our tour guide gave us some history lessons about the canyon. She also provided us with the best camera settings to get amazing pictures. They try to help you out, no matter what camera you own. Everything from an iPhone camera all the way up to high-end DSLR’s.

adventure tours antelope canyon

Now it was our groups turn to head down the set of stairs leading to the entrance or better the exit of the canyon. It is the entrance for the tour but for the water coming down when it rains here, it will be the exit. The canyon continues all the way down to Lake Powell. By taking a boat tour at the Antelope Point Marine you get to see the other side of the canyon. You can take a guided boat tour or rent a kayak and explore the canyon in your own pace. The Kajak is able to get down in the canyon even further than the tour boat.

adventure tours antelope canyon

Once the whole group made it to the bottom we got guided through the canyon. It starts out already amazing when you look at the rock formations but it will get better and better. That’s why we probably take the tour against the flow direction of the water.

Our tour guide didn’t rush us through the canyon but we couldn’t stay at a point for an extended period of time. It was basically just going a few steps around corners to take pictures and then move on so the next person can take pictures of the same rock formations. It was quite busy here in the canyon and we had some congestion issues with the group directly ahead of us. Be prepared that people might step in your picture. Our tour guide made sure that the whole group keeps on moving. The guides will help you if you want to take pictures of yourself or your family or travel companions. Our guide pointed out all the specific formations in the rock which have names like “Lady in the Wind”. This is a pretty famous rock formation you might have seen somewhere before and didn’t notice where it was taken.

Another set of stairs you have to climb once inside.

The tour and the sights got better and better as we headed further upwards the canyon. This tour used to be a self-guided tour but as more and more people come to see this location guides were necessary to keep you out of danger. If it rains miles away, there is a chance of a flash flood coming through the canyon without you even noticing. It might not even rain at the canyon entrance itself. Once inside you have to get up one more set of stairs and then at the end to exit the canyon. In the old days, there was no staircase here and people had to climb up the wall by stepping in small holes in the wall and an attached rope.

Once you are outside of the canyon again take more pictures because this will be your last opportunity before heading back to the start point of the tour. You can stay a little for some last pictures but your guide will make sure you move on for the next groups to come out.

adventure tours antelope canyon

There are two types of tours available from Ken’s Tours. A regular tour, which we did and a photography tour. The photography tour leaves at certain times only and gives you more time in the canyon.

Our tour was about an hour long and the photography tour will give you a little bit over two hours in the canyon. A guide will still accompany you. For more information on tours visit Ken’s Tours website . Our tour was $25 per person and photo tours go for $47 at the time of writing this article.

Tips for your visit to Antelope Canyon

  • Make sure you have enough space on your phone or an empty memory card for 100’s of pictures
  • Wear hiking boots or other comfortable shoes for walking on rock and sand
  • Best time to visit is around noon, depending on the time of the year. When the sun is at the highest point in the sky it’s the best time to get sunbeams into the canyon
  • Dress in layers. The temperature difference is not very extreme but there is a difference
  • Wear a hat to protect your hair from falling sand. Safety glasses are also a great idea to protect your eyes from falling sand.
  • Bring sunscreen and a bottle of water
  • There are no restrooms in the canyon, either go before or you have to hold it until the tour is over
  • Be respectful of nature and to the people in your group. Step out of the way after you took your pictures and let the following people take their pictures
  • Save your receipt otherwise you have to pay the entrance fee for the tribal lands again

Why Antelope Canyon

The name Antelope Canyon was first used by Anglo settlers. These settlers mistakenly identified the abundant pronghorn that once lived in this area’s grasslands and canyons. Antelopes can only be found in the grasslands and savannahs of Africa and parts of Asia.

Bottom Line

Yes, it is a “tourist trap” but it’s so worth seeing it. Take your time to stop here and take a tour of this well-known canyon. It will get very busy here in the summer time so off-season is a good time of the year to visit without all the big crowds. I definitely enjoyed the short walk through the canyon. It reminded me a little bit about my adventure in the Ape Cave lava tubes .

Walk Through The Antelope Canyon

Antelope is the most snapped slot canyon in the southwest of the United States because of its wave-like structure, which gives the canyon a distinctive appearance. Summer is the most popular season for exploring the canyon since the weather is milder and there is less possibility of rain. Visitors from all over the world come to see its magnificent red and orange sandstone cliffs, which were eroded over many years by wind and water. Because of the canyon's unusual geometry, the sunlight reflects off its walls in fascinating patterns, producing a constantly shifting light display.

Celebrate Art At Seven Magic Mountains

A celebration of art and color , it rises more than 30 feet above the Nevada Desert and is constructed of seven enormous towers built of enormous colorful neon stones. The Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone claims that the Seven Magic Mountains reflect the blending of the man-made and the natural, as well as the passing traffic on the highway and the nearby mountains and lakes.

Bryce Canyon, which is celebrating an entire century of wonder, is most renowned for its hoodoos, which are artistically sculpted rock spires that erosion has left intact. The greatest places to see hoodoos are along our day hiking paths, which provide a close-up and personal view of these unusual rock formations. The Bryce Canyon Amphitheater region is where you'll find the majority of the gorgeous day hikes and trailheads. In contrast, the backcountry paths of Bryce Canyon provide woods and meadows, breathtaking vistas of far-off cliffs, and isolation, but fewer hoodoos. On the other hand, Zion's distinctive collection of flora and animals will amaze you as you take in the past's rich history and the present's exhilarating experiences.
