I made reservations for the 1.5 hour “photography” tour at 11:30am for $32 with Antelope Canyon Tours.

Couldn’t take stills on this ride
Checked in for my tour in Page, Arizona. Each truck holds 14 people and there were four trucks full just for my tour. It’s a 20 minute ride to the canyon, half on pavement and the rest like this video. Hang on tight. (That is the Navajo coal fired power plant in the background.)

You can only enter the canyon with a Navajo guide and Laytoya explained that we would pass through in a group stopping at various places along the way.

Then we were on our own to explore for 25 minutes before we needed to be back on the trucks.

As I gently touched the sculpted sandstone walls it seemed the rock cried out for silence. This is an awesome place but was way too crowded and not enough time.
