We spent a few nights in Page Arizona and explored the Glen Canyon area as well as Antelop and Marble Canyons. We took the Secret Antelope Canyon & Horseshoe Bend Overlook with Horseshoe Bend Tours https://horseshoebendtours.com
These lands are protected by the Navajo Nation and access can only be gained via Navajo sanctioned tour companies.
We booked this tour as an alternative to Upper/ Lower Antelop Canyon Tours to have a less crowded experience. We booked for 11:00 am as we researched that the hours between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM are best for seeng the light in the slot canyon.
We headed out with Bo, our guide, and 8 other travelers in a UTV for the slot canyon. The ride itself was an adventure and fun and we were able to explore the slot canyon for 45 minutes. It was very serene- we loved the whole experience! We also were able to climb up to the area above the top of the canyon and look at it from above.
Secret Antelope Canyon
This area of the slot canyon is called " The Chapel" and people have,on occassion, used this spot to get married.
We loved how the natural light in the canyon set the stage!
Horseshoe Bend
Horseshoe Bend is the site where the Colorado River created a roughly 1,000 ft (305 m) deep, 270º horseshoe-shaped bend in Glen Canyon. We werbe ale to go to a private observation point with the tour. We were able to climb around the different rock formations and it was great to share this with only Bo and our 8 traveling friends!
We were so glad we decided this tour as we were able to take our time and really enjoy the beauty and peace of these places.
Red Heritage Dinner Theater
We spent an evening in Page at the Dinner Show of the Red Heritage Dinner Theater
This was a wonderful night of experiencing food and culture presented by a Navajo family run business. We had Navajo tacos made with fry bread ( delicious). We learned a lot about the culture and enjoyed flute playing, drumming, costumed dancing including perfromances by the 2nd and 5th place World Champion hoop dancers as well as dance and hoop dance performances by the younger boys and girls of the family! We thoroughly enjoyed this!
