ANTELOPE CANYON AND HORSESHOE BEND 1 day

Overview

We begin our day heading out along a scenic drive into the Navajo territory. Stop for breakfast in St. George Utah home to the oldest continuously operating Mormon temple in the world. as we head deeper into Navajo territory we approach the mighty Colorado River, for a visit to “Horseshoe Bend”, where the river flows and meanders around the rocks creating a unique horseshoe-shaped loop beloved by visitors and photographers from around the world.

Next we travel to where “The water runs through the rocks” as per the local Navajo folklore. We tour the Antelope Canyon and visit the spectacular dunes created by the wind, water and sand; words are not enough to describe these formations created by Mother Nature. A local Navajo guide will tour us through the canyon and show us the beauty of the sun which creates shafts of light that shine through the slits in the canyon walls, creating one of a kind photo opportunities. After a break for lunch we head to the Glenn Canyon viewpoint for one last look at this spectacular area, before we head to Las Vegas for an evening arrival.
