Explore the beauty of the Upper Antelope Canyon or Lower Antelope Canyon, and Horseshoe Bend with a Navajo guide on this tour from Page. Enrich your tour with a visit to the impressive Glen Canyon Dam Overlook. Following pickup by a spacious, air-conditioned van, head to Upper or Lower Antelope Canyon (depending on the option booked). The canyon is called Ts bighnln, meaning "the place where water runs through rocks" by the Navajo People.  Once there, enjoy a 1.5-hour walk.

We had an incredible experience with Amadeo Travel! Gertrude “Trudy” was our tour guide, and she was absolutely amazing. She shared so much history and insight about our surroundings on the way to Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon, making the journey even more special. Trudy was kind, patient, and never rushed us, ensuring we truly enjoyed every moment of our trip. Our driver, Charlotte, was also fantastic—very kind and professional, making the drive smooth and enjoyable. Overall, the trip was outstanding, and I can’t recommend Trudy and Amadeo Travel enough. I would definitely book with them again!

This was such an amazing day trip! The antelope canyon was so so cool!! Lorenzo was a great guide and driver, he was very knowledgeable and funny! He also takes amazing pictures and has a really great playlist for every step of the trip :D This day trip from Las Vegas is very long but absolutely worth it for the beautiful sights of antelope canyon and horseshoe bend, and it’s not crowded or too known making it a more unique experience off the beaten path, but so so worth it!
