The experience

Lower Antelope Canyon sits on Navajo Nation land just east of Page, Arizona, which is why admission is timed and requires a local guide: that structure is what makes the midday sunlight schedule possible. Your guide leads you through the narrow sandstone corridors, where the interplay of light and shadow creates the colors and formations that make this canyon one of the most photographed slot canyons in the country. The timed entry is scheduled around noon, when sunlight filters deepest into the canyon and the photography conditions are at their best.

After Lower Antelope Canyon, you head to Horseshoe Bend, where an easy 1.5-mile round-trip trail takes you to an overlook 1,000 feet above the Colorado River. The river makes a dramatic 270-degree curve around towering sandstone cliffs: the kind of view that stops you mid-step. Lake Powell comes into view during the drive through northern Arizona, and you'll pass through the Virgin River Gorge, where the road winds between towering rock walls carved by the river itself.

The full day runs 14 to 15 hours from your Las Vegas hotel pickup to return, with approximately 4.5 hours of driving each way. Lunch, snacks, bottled water and Wi-Fi on board are included. The tour has won Travelers' Choice Best of the Best for three consecutive years.
