Chief Tsosie's guides know all the hot spots and they will guide you through an amazing natural wonder of Antelope Canyon. They will provide you with the secret knowledge of photographing the beams and dance with the sand. We believe we have the best time starting at 10:30am for photographing the canyon. We get the early development of the light beams and stay until the beams start to lift off the canyon floor. This tour is lead with precision and experience. 10:30am (peak hour)- This is the prime sunbeam tour. The colors are fairly uniform throughout the canyon and visibility is good. If some of the colors are not as brilliant, be assured that at their worst, they are spectacular. We linger at the sunbeams which pour down like heavenly messages. 1:00pm (peak hour)- Sunbeams continue to play in the canyon, climbing the walls instead of pouring down on the floor. The colors are very similar to the late morning tour, but the north end is slowly becoming the brightest, most colorful end. A marvelous blend of color, shape and majesty will strike you on this tour! 3:00pm and 5:00pm- The richness of color in the afternoon rivals the morning. Calming and still, the canyon becomes clear of other adventures. There is a good chance that you will have parts of the canyon all to yourself. It is a time to pause for reflection in a spiritual wonderland, let the quiet and color soak into your bone marrow, and take a bit of the canyon into your heart.

Over the years, Lower Antelope Canyon has become a favorite gathering place for photographers, tourists, and visitors from around the world. The views in Lower Antelope Canyon change constantly as the sun moves across the sky, filtering lights softly across the stone walls. These ever-moving sun angles bounce light back and forth across the narrow canyon’s walls, creating a dazzling display of color, light, and shadow. The Navajo name for Lower Antelope Canyon is Hasdeztwazi or 'Spiral Rock Arches'. Many years ago, herds of Pronghorn Antelope roamed freely in and around the canyon, which explains the English name. This incredible canyon has been created over millions of years by the relentless forces of water and wind, slowly carving and sculpting the sandstone into forms, textures, and shapes which we observe today. Please note there are steep stairs that are required to go down to enter into the canyon. Currently we only provide the Lower Antelope Canyon as a combo package with one of our other tours.
From Antelope Point Marina along the Colorado River's original channel to the canyon opening; explore the Lake Powell side of world-famous Antelope Canyon, perhaps one of the most photographed slot canyons on Earth. Enjoy a relaxing alternative to hiking the canyon. Take a leisurely 1 hour guided boat tour through the towering cliffs and slot canyons. Gliding through Antelope Canyon is both awe-inspiring and unique.

On the Lower Antelope Hiking and Boat Tour, you’ll experience this iconic slot canyon in two distinct and beautiful ways: on foot, and on the water. Phase 1* of your tour begins at Ken’s Lower Antelope Canyon Tours. After checking in at their brand new visitor services pavilion, your Navajo Indian Guide will escort you to Lower Antelope Canyon’s entrance. A series of ladders takes you down into a landscape of pure magic, as sculpted sandstone walls bathed in soft, muted colors envelop you. Within the chambers of this geologic anomaly, formed by fast-flowing water and blowing sand, the rattle and hum of the outside world will slip away as you climb and explore. This 600 meter hike is manageable for most people in relatively good health, but parties with infants or toddlers, or anyone with mobility limitations would be better off touring Upper Antelope Canyon.

As you make your way back topside, you’ll be given directions to nearby Antelope Point Marina where you begin Phase 2* of your Antelope Canyon tour: the waterside! Antelope Canyon was formed by an intermittent creek that flash floods from time to time. All that water eventually ends up in Lake Powell. After checking in at the tour boat counter at the top of the hill, a guest services attendant will give you a ride in a golf cart down the ramp to the tour boat dock. Upon boarding your open-air tour boat and receiving a short safety briefing, your U.S. Coast Guard certified captain will guide you and your traveling companions into a side canyon, where towering sandstone walls are adorned with ancient desert varnish. As the canyon becomes narrower and narrower, it becomes clear how it connects to the area you just hiked, until you get to a point where you can go no further. Not to worry – your captain will turn this boat around like a boss!

Upon disembarking back at the tour boat dock, you are welcome to stick around and explore Antelope Point Marina, maybe grab a bite at the Sand Bar restaurant, or purchase a souvenir of your visit. When you’re ready to head back to Page, AZ, simply ask for a guest services attendant to give you a lift back to the marina parking lot, or, if you’re in the mood for more exercise, walk back up the ramp at your leisure.
