We experience the impressive Monument Valley on a 1.5-hour tour. We will be accompanied by an experienced Navajo guide who will lead us through the valley and introduce us to the diverse Native American culture. During several photo stops, we will have the opportunity to admire the monumental rock formations. The terrain of Monument Valley is ancient, resilient, and breathtakingly beautiful. This distinctive landscape was formed by the erosion of the sandstone deposits of the Rocky Mountains and geologic uplift, and has been further shaped over many centuries by the relentless forces of wind and water. Contrary to what some may believe, Monument Valley is not a national park, but a tribal park, as it lies within the boundaries of the Navajo Nation. The tribal park designation is important to preserve its unique heritage and geological wonders.
