I have painted Antelope... - I have painted Antelope Canyon from photographs many times so seeing it in person was a special treat. Incredible rock formations and colors. Our guide was very knowledgeable and spent time answering specific questions. Only suggestion I would have is to space the tours groups as there was often a bottleneck and took away from the magic of the place.

Great experience - Great experience. The tour guides are very helpful and will even take pictures for you—don’t forget to tip them for their generosity. Caution for anyone with mobility issues, cardiac issues, pregnant women…it is HOT and lots of stairs

Wonderful lady tour... - Wonderful lady tour guide. Beautiful sandstone. Our tour guide adjusted our cameras to get the best pics. She also pointed out special photo ops like the angel and dragon. She was very knowledgeable and happy to help with pics.

Great experience - This tour is a great viewing experience. I did the upper canyon tour. The positives were the tour guide I had, which might be hit and miss if your group is allocated a poor fit. The actual walking isn't that far, about an hour very slow walking. The actual site is a 15 minute drive from the meeting point. Be prepared, some of the transfer ride is quite rough tire-rutted sand. The real downside with all these tours is the meeting point is as remote as the canyons and they are all poorly sign posted. Visitors have to rely on sat nav to find the right one. The pricing seems rather high, even though it appears the company operates on thin margins.

Fascinating Experience - Fascinating with excellent guide. Easy to book through Viator and instructions for preparing very clear. Although the upper canyon is the easier tour for people who are not active, be prepared for some uphill waling and stairs at the end.

It was wonderful! - We drove from Sedona, but the Navajo region has a time difference, going back and forth by one hour at various times, and eventually settled on the same time zone as Sedona. Since the items you can bring in are limited, I think you should make an inquiry. The local guide was very kind, and it was a fun tour.

We did the upper antelope... - We did the upper antelope tour. You must have a tour guide. Carlisle was amazing and very helpful with the photos. The hike is very doable for all ages. If you are thinking about it this is your sign to go for it.

Avoid Adventurous for Upper Antelope Canyon - Our tour of the Upper Canyon was a disaster from the start, with us being omitted when they were assigning guides, to being added to the last guide, who introduced himself by threatening to remove you from the tour if you didn't do exactly as directed. Compared to the other guides, he was absolutely rude and totally unhelpful. He ruined the experience for everyone in our group. I'm not saying to not go see Upper Anyelope Canyon. I'm say I would never recommend Adventurous as your guide service.

Disappointing, we feel cheated, - A DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE. WE FEEL CHEATED AND SCAMMED BY VIATOR Our experience with Viator has been absolutely regrettable. We feel totally cheated and scammed by a company that, in our opinion, has shown an absolute lack of professionalism, transparency, and respect toward its customers. We booked the excursion to Antelope Canyon, in the United States, with a Spanish-speaking guide. This detail was not secondary: we chose this excursion solely and exclusively because it was advertised with a Spanish-speaking guide. It was a very special experience, one of those that you have once in a lifetime, and we had been waiting for that moment for a very long time, with all the excitement and expectations that entails. What was our surprise? That, just a few hours before the excursion, when they sent us the final tickets, we discovered that the contracted service was listed with an English-speaking guide. And the most outrageous part came when we showed up at the site of the visit: the operators of the company that conducts the tour themselves told us clearly that they never offer tours with a Spanish-speaking guide and that what they had sold us did not correspond to reality. In other words, Viator sold us a service that, as the people in charge of the excursion confirmed to us right there, they did not even offer. How can something like this be marketed without verifying that it actually exists? How can one play with the money, time, and hopes of customers in this way? We found ourselves trapped in an excursion that we had prepared with great excitement, with no real possibility of reacting with so few hours until its start and with the bitter feeling that we had been taken for a ride. A once-in-a-lifetime experience that should have been unforgettable for the right reasons ended up becoming a huge disappointment. What angers us most is not only that the service was not what was contracted, but the feeling that our excitement and our expectations did not matter at all. The only thing that seems to matter is selling the excursion and getting paid, even if what is advertised does not correspond to what the customer finally receives. For us, this is an intolerable lack of respect and a totally unacceptable business practice. We are not talking about a minor inconvenience or an unimportant change: we are talking about a fundamental condition of the service that motivated our purchase and that turned out to be, as the operators themselves indicated to us, false. For our part, we will not book anything at all with Viator again and we will not recommend this company to anyone. We travel regularly and have a wide circle of friends and acquaintances who also travel frequently. Of course, we will share our experience so that other people know what happened to us and think twice before booking with this platform. Our trust in Viator has been completely destroyed. A company that sells experiences should contribute to creating unforgettable memories, not turn a long-held dream into an experience marked by deception and frustration.
