Best tour experience you can wish for! - My partner and I booked the Mystery Valley 4x4 tour by Dineh Bekeya Tours. I can highly recommend this tour to anyone who's interested to learn more about Monument Valley Navajo Tribal park and the Navajo culture. I am so glad and grateful we got the spend 3 hours with our tour guide named Comasheena, she absolutely blew our minds away with her extensive knowledge and we loved how she educated us on traditions and historic events about the Navajo tribe, and sacred elements of this magical place. Thank you for everything Comasheena, we'll definitely be back!

Of all the tours we did, this was our favorite! - This is the perfect tour is you want to see many different arches, different styled ruins, and many petroglyphs. Joe was our exceptional guide! He shared stories and knowledge of his culture with us and we are forever changed by this experience! All of the tours we took were wonderful but this was our favorite!

Amazing 18-hours tour with Harry! - We went for the overnight 18-hours tour with Harry and it was completely amazing. We went to places we would never have been able to go by ourselves, just driving there back and forth was a lot of fun, and the views from the Mesa are completely incredible. Harry took a great care of us, and had a lot of stories to share. We learnt a lot about the Navajo culture. Highly recommend it.

The Full Monty! - Overnight tour had it all: four wheel drive adventure, sunset, sunrise, night skies and a knowledgeable guide that could both share cultural and historic stories but was responsive to our questions and curiosities. Thank you, HARRY! First rate!

Great tour, led by great people. - Guide Yvonne led us through a tour that felt as if we’d traveled back in time, touring and hiking among the ancient dwellings and petroglyphs in the restricted Mystery Valley region, south of Monument Valley. She gave us interesting insights into the ancient Anasazi people, and also taught us important things about the Dineh people, their history, and culture. We’re grateful the what we saw and learned, and for the experience of hearing the haunting woodwind melody she played echoing through the cliffs.

Mysteries Revealed. - Anazazi ruins, petroglyphs, arches, and an afternoon of Dineh culture, with our excellent guide, Jameson. In some ways, better than the Monument Valley experience. Well worth it.

So happy we took the Mystery Valley Tour!! - Our guide was Jameson and he really made the tour worthwhile. We were the only couple in a very comfortable Suburban. Jameson told us about the special sites we were seeing — ancient ruins, petroglyphs, caves and arches—and also shared with us Navajo culture, customs, language and foods. We got out of the vehicle to hike around and take pictures whenever we wanted. The roads are sandy & in places rocky and Jameson was an experienced driver and we always felt safe. If you want to get off the beaten track and see parts of the reservation that very few people see, take this tour!
