Description

Discover beauty of the Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon and hike to a spectacular viewpoint at Horseshoe Bend on this guided tour from Page that includes lunch, permits and park fees.
Start with pickup from select hotels in Page and relax on the transfer in a spacious van. Arrive at the entrance to the Lower Antelope Canyon and begin your hiking adventure. Descend the steps to the bottom of the vibrantly-colored canyon.

Hike at a gradual incline towards the exit, admiring spiraling rock formations that were crafted by combination of time, water, and wind. Have fun climbing down ladders and maneuvering through and narrow passageways.

Find out about slot canyons, get photo tips, and learn about the culture of the Dineh (Navajo) people. Stop to see a traditional Navajo dwelling along the way. Rest at a picnic area where you can use the restroom.

Refuel with a delicious Subway lunch and have the option purchase additional snacks and drinks before you continue to the Upper Antelope Canyon. See for yourself why the canyon is renowned for its ethereal beauty and unique geological formations.

Admire the smooth, flowing shapes in the sandstone. Keep an eye out for light beams that penetrate the openings at the top of the canyon, creating dramatic shafts of light that illuminate the sandstone walls below.

Continue to a third trail that leads to the Horseshoe Bend Overlook. Walk along a flat, smooth-surfaced path until you reach a viewpoint that opens out onto a striking meander of the Colorado River which is characterized by its distinctive horseshoe shape.

Return to your pickup point with unforgettable memories of the Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon and the incredible pictures that you took at the Horseshoe Bend Overlook.
