What is Antelope Canyon like?
Antelope Canyon is one, 30-mile long slot canyon comprised of four different sections. It is made up of narrow passageways, eroded corridors, and wave-like shapes in the rocks. Located on the south shore of Lake Powell, the sandstone formations of Antelope Canyon are a famous location to shoot photos. Rainwater, in the form of monsoon season flash flooding, has cut this magnificent natural feature.
Can I go to Antelope Canyon without a tour?
No, you cannot access Antelope Canyon without a tour. Located on Navajo Nation land near Page, Arizona, Antelope Canyon is a highly popular slot canyon and a popular destination for photographers and sightseers alike. However, due to safety reasons and the delicate nature of the area, an experienced guide is required in order to access either the Upper Antelope Canyon or Lower Antelope Canyon. The only way to visit these canyons is by booking one of the many tours available in Page, AZ or with one of the Papillon tours to Antelope Canyon from Las Vegas.
Which Antelope Canyon tour is better? Upper Antelope Canyon or Lower Antelope Canyon?
Antelope Canyon is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Southwest United States, and it's no wonder why. The canyon is a stunning marvel of nature, with its deep sandstone canyons carved out by years of rain and wind erosion. There are two main parts to Antelope Canyon: Lower Antelope Canyon, known as the "Corkscrew," and Upper Antelope Canyon, known as the "Crack."
Lower Antelope Canyon is also generally less crowded than Upper Antelope Canyon, making it a great choice for those looking to avoid the crowds. But Lower Antelope Canyon is more physically demanding. It requires a short, steep walk on an uneven rock surface to a series of stairs. The Upper Antelope Canyon, which is equally, if not more beautiful, than Lower Antelope Canyon, is also much more crowded than the lower canyon, so it's important to book your tour well in advance if you're hoping to get a spot.
What is the best month to visit Antelope Canyon?
The best time period to visit Antelope Canyon is between late March and early October. This is the most likely opportunity to witness the otherworldly sunbeams that radiate down to the canyon’s sand floor. Visitors are also advised to book their Antelope Canyon tours in the morning, when the desert weather is more mild.
Why is Horseshoe Bend so famous?
Horseshoe Bend Arizona is a breathtaking natural wonder. It’s no wonder that tourist flock to this remote location – seeing the unusual horseshoe-shaped twist in the Colorado River atop a sheer 1,000-foot drop is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Horseshoe Bend is also nestled in Page, Arizona – an already popular tourist destination for Antelope Canyon, Lake Powell water activities, camping, and more. If you’re visiting Page AZ, you can easily add a visit to Horseshoe Bend to your schedule!
Do you need a guide to see Horseshoe Bend?
No, a guide is not required to visit Horseshoe Bend. For nearby Antelope Canyon, however, it is required to sign up with a tour guide.

After landing at Bryce Canyon, you'll have the entire day to explore the otherworldly rock formations in the Lower and Middle Amphitheaters, the eroded rock spires (called hoodoos), colorful plateaus, and forested viewpoints. Your return journey via shuttle will also stop at Zion National Park for even more sightseeing before arriving back in the Las Vegas area.
Colorado River Rafting Adventures
Another fantastic sightseeing opportunity is a daylong rafting adventure at the floor of the Grand Canyon. You'll enjoy a peaceful float aboard a motorized raft and float between the rippling canyon walls. Your guide is an expert on the history of this treasured national landmark and can answer any questions you have and offer unique facts about the canyon. Halfway through your rafting adventure, you'll dock on the bank of the Colorado River and make a short hike to view ancient petroglyphs.
Antelope Canyon
Antelope Canyon is one of the world's most recognizable and unique natural destinations. Even if you don't know it by name, you've certainly seen the warped orange and red sandstone walls of this otherworldly slot canyon. You can fly from Las Vegas to Antelope Canyon in Page, Arizona and explore its depths on a guided tour led by a Navajo guide. You may even see the elusive light beams that shine through the ceiling and radiate down to the sandy floor. Additional destinations in Page, AZ include Horseshoe Bend (a near-circular curve in the Colorado River), and Tower Butte - where you can land on the top of this rock formation in a helicopter!
