Tours – Length & Time
The Sunrise Tour, Short Tour, Complete Tour, and Sunset Tour times are set by tour routes. Tour times are, “approximate” factors may include; participation, tour route congestion, inclement weather, park road re-routes & activities, etc. Our tours are conducted by routes identified and permitted for use by the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park management.
Participation: The party on tour may request to skip a stop or not exit the vehicle at all, this shortens tour time, but we are still on the tour route listed on the reservation.
Inclement weather: Weather in Monument Valley and the surrounding area may be unpredictable. Rain, hail, wind, or snow may affect road conditions, this may slow the tour and lengthen the tour time. Rain sometimes affects tour routes, and alternative routes may be used by our guides.
Tour Route Congestion: During the peak season, the route may become congested, this will lengthen the tour time. During congestion, we will not deviate from the reserved tour route.
Park re-routes and activities: From time to time the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park performs activities for the community or the Navajo Nation government, this sometimes affects tour times by lengthening it. If we are re-routed, our Sandstone Tours guides may have to use alternative routes to make up for deviations not usually used in our daily tour listings.
Rates listed from this website will not be honored upon arrival. A booking must be made in advance and must have a printed receipt, reservation sheet, or confirmation number made available to our tour coordinator on site.
