- CanuckAlberta663 contributionsDixie's Lower Antelope Tours amazingWe did DLAT today based on others reviews and it was amazing. I have never seen formations like this before and did not really know what to expect. It was a bit crowded and chaotic at first as we descended the stairs into the canyon but the people slowly spread out and it was a more intimate and positive experience. Our guide, Preston, was very patient and helpful with camera settings and taking individual photos of our group. Amazing 90 minutes, thank you Preston and Dixie.Visited October 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten October 3, 2023
- dixiepeachKansas City, Missouri9,508 contributionsVery scenic slot canyonThis was a great tour. You must go on a guided tour. There are quite a few stairs at the beginning, some nearly vertical like a ladder. If you are claustrophobic this may not be the best tour for you. The views are very beautiful and your guide can point out some of the best photo opportunities.Visited October 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten October 26, 2023
- BobIllinois1 contributionAmazingWonderful guide, amazing sights. It's much longer than Upper Antelope, It's much prettier than Upper Antelope because of the natural light and wider sides. Upper Antelope was ok, this was amazing. Don't worry about your camera settings. The guides make sure your brand is set to perfection. The trip has many stairs, some needing strong feet,good balance. The guide and walk= lifetime great memories.Visited October 2023Traveled soloWritten November 1, 2023
- SusanneVIEPanama218 contributionsAn absolutley Must but choose to visit outside vacation seasonTo be frank, only thanks to my husband who insisted of doing the tour, we visited the site and it was one of the most incredible experiences and oportunity to take the most beautiful pictures. I had read some negative and discouraging reviews and was unsure what to expect. We booked and paid the visit online, so I dont know why some people complained in reviews that everything had to be paid in cash. We arrived very early for our tour at 10 am and almost decided to join the 9:30am tour but when I heard that there were already 20 people on that tour we decided to wait. We were so lucky, and I am sure that made the whole difference, that we were only 2 couples on the tour! So our guide, Appia, took all the time to explain and to give hints how to take pictures, like at certain angles and to recognize certain shapes and formations. She also offered many times to take pictures of ourselves. We were never rushed or were asked to move faster, we heard a much bigger group behind us but never had them right behind us. It has to be said, that they dont allow videos or professional cameras (only with permit) and no tripods to take pictures, also no big bags or backpacks becaue the canyons are very narrow. We visited the days after the Thanksgiving weekend and it seems to be a great time with less visitors.Visited November 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten December 8, 2023
- Cprmini113 contributionsBeautiful and no crowds in December!Stunning! We did one of the “alternate” canyons first because we thought Antelope would be crowded. We were pleasantly surprised to only have 6 people in our group at Lower Antelope and no crowd because it was off season. The alternative canyon wasn’t even in the same category. Go straight to Antelope canyon for an amazing experience!!Visited December 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten December 8, 2023
- Daniel K5 contributionsOne of the most beautiful places, not to be missed.Truly a magical experience. Each turn in the canyon is so beautiful and unexpected. Our tour guide Jo was fantastic and helped us take some incredible pictures. Despite what seems like a lot people going in at the same time, the way the caverns weave around, you feel like you have the place nearly to yourself. Totally recommend the drive to this location, it is worth it.Visited December 2023Traveled with familyWritten December 31, 2023

We took the tour of lower Antelope Canyon today with the Dixie Ellis company and it was better than we had hoped for! Our tour guide, Eder, was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to make sure everyone on the tour got a little history, lots of fun facts, and all the best photos. He even played traditional Native American music for our group after the tour which was very special. Would definitely recommend this company and if you ask for Eder you will not be disappointed!!!

The Lower Antelope Canyon is at the top of our most spectacular natural wonders experiences. The beauty of the canyon is unmatched by anything we have seen! While the upper canyon gets a 10 out of 10, the lower canyon gets a 20 out of 10. While the lower canyon many not be accessible for everyone because of the number of stairs to climb up and down (some quite steep) we would highly recommend that you choose Ken’s Tours! They actually had a decent restroom on the premise (and additional portable potties on the side). We took the 11:30 tour with Ray Garcia and he was incredible. He checked to see what devices we would be taking pictures with and helped us to put them on the right settings to get the most vivid pictures. He also took the time not only to show us the best places in the canyon to photograph, but he also made sure he took pictures of each of us using our devices to capture us in the spectacular beauty of the canyon. He was a wealth of knowledge about the canyon, the history, and the geology of the canyon and the area. The canyon was spectacular and it was made even more special because of Ray. The Lower Antelope Canyon with Ken’s Tours is a MUST do!

We loved touring Lower Antelope Canyon with Dixie Hills Tours! We went during mid February and it was not crowded at all. It is a long tour and had many interesting shapes and beauty. Our tour guide Jarrin, was awesome! Genuinely funny, and very informative. We learn lots about these marvelous formations and the Navajo tribe. He pointed out many things we wouldn't have noticed on our own and took many amazing pictures for us. I was taking lots of pictures and never felt rushed out. We highly recommend seeing Lower Antelope Canyon with Dixie Hills!

I visited lower antelope Canyon with my kids. However, I discovered in my confirmation mail that I bought one ticket too much. I contacted the agency, who did not want to reimburse the ticket (their policy said I was too late). Then I contacted Ken’s Tour to ask if they could help me, as the tour seemed to be sold out and maybe someone could use the extra ticket (that costed me 96€ online). I got the answer that if someone needed a ticket, they could not buy mine, but needed to buy one of them.
Still I did not give up, as it is a lot of money for one ticket. At the entrance I met a group of young people who tried to buy tickets, but there were not enough for all of them. I told them they could have one of mine. The lady sitting at the sales desk overheard me and said they could not take mine. She said she now has seen my face and if I dared to come with one person more (meaning that one of the group of youngsters would come in with me), they would stop us.
I was really shocked by this; that they would go as far as this, while in this case both the group of young people as well as me and my family would be helped by this. I have the feeling it is all about getting in as much money as possible, not about client service.
I must as that our guide in the Canyon was really friendly and helped us take great pictures. We really loved the visit itself, but unfortunately I will keep this feeling of being ripped of at the entrance

Six of us went on a Dixie Ellis tour of Lower Antelope Canyon last week during a vacation in Sedona. The canyon is absolutely gorgeous. Our guide, Jessie, was fantastic, and the canyon is easy to traverse, thanks to the stairs that have been installed. When you arrive, you feel like you're in the middle of a wasteland. Who would have thought there was something so magnificent underground? At each bend in the canyon, the formations are increasingly beautiful. This tour is highly recommended. It was one of the highlights of our trip.

This is a must see experience!! We toured through Dixie Ellis and had Cody as our tour guide. He showed us how to use features on our phones to take amazing pictures and took some incredible ones of us. We learned so much. This is on the Navajo Nation and you do have to wear a mask the entire time. You cannot bring any bags but can bring water bottles or refillable bottles. It is a short walk into the canyon through sand and a little over 100 steps and narrow walkways in the canyon. Would recommend this a million times over!! Go early in the summer months as it will be hot!

Other than the first visit to the awe inspiring Grand Canyon, our visit to Lower Antelope Canyon Arizona was just as incredible, if not more so for the fact that you can actually smell, walk, touch and feel the Earthly presence of millennia of rock layers, cracks and colors which show the long ago streams, swamps, oceans and lakes that have scarred and beautified the area for over seventy million years! And, over time, the elevation of the ground permeating upon the stratas which is now the Colorado Plateau with its incredible pigments, curves, blemeshis, shapes of what Mother Earth is. Today, this continues to change as seasonal rains with its floods, wash through from deluges from on higher ground, to continue Mother Nature’s terrestrial artwork upon the landscape. Awe inspiring are words not suited to something so astonishing, and words will never describe it. One must visit, see, and personally and emotionally experience this wonder of earth’s magnificence in order to ‘feel’ and ‘absorb’ its breadth, scope and soul – which makes us one with the earth. Hear and listen to the First Nations of the land when they tell us that the earth lives. To many this may just be a giant wash during rains, but to others, the earth speaks its independence, never to be tamed by man. We are residents on a celestial plain we only lease and will never own. Yet it is home! Let us love it and care for it, then we can appreciate it more. A place on earth worth seeing once in a lifetime!

It's truly amazing that the rain water rushing off the mesas would carve such beautiful paths and formations in the sandstone over the years. The fact that the sandstone is various shades of red from the iron content makes it even more special. This tour was fantastic in every way. Ray Herder was a great guide. He shared some very good tips about how to get the best pictures with our phones and cameras, he pointed out several unique formations in the sandstone, he took lots of pictures of everyone in his group, and he told fun stories, including how his Father used to rappel into the canyon with his friends when he was a teenager. The pace of the tour was just right, and the groups are staggered so that it doesn't feel like there's a crowd in the canyon. Ken's Tours also has a very nice gift shop to browse before and/or after the tour. I highly recommend Ken's Tours at Lower Antelope Canyon for a unique, fascinating, and fun experience.

This was one of the best places we have visited. We opted for the DELUXE Tour and it was well worth it as we were a small group and recieved personal attention throughout our tour. From the greeting upon arrival by Iliana, to our wonderful guide, Cody, who not only told us the history of the canyon but provided his expert advice on setting our cameras for utmost success in taking photos... The tour ended with a traditional Navajo Taco lunch. It was altogether a fabulous experience! (Note that this tour is not for everyone as there are many stairs and narrow passages). But, if you are able to, visit Lower Antelope Canyon for sure!!

Our tour to the Lower Antelope Canyon was an experience to behold. The whole tour, from start to finish, was simply beautiful. The colors in the sandstone, with light, taken from various angles was awe inspiring. Our tour guide Jerome was very helpful throughout the tour showing us the best angles and camera settings to enhance our photos. We would strongly recommend this tour to anyone in the Page, Arizona area.

What time of day on Sept 9 or 10 is best to see the Lower Antelope canyon ? Please suggest specific times. Lighting is most important but crowds can be a factor as well.

At summer could be a great choice taking the trip at the afternoon, due to the sunny weather. Just remember go back early because it's like a maze and you want to be secure in no rushing time.

Contour Airlines serves Page (PGA) but not on a daily basis. They connect to PHX and LAS from Page so its best to research and plan ahead. If you need to rent a vehicle, there's Avis car rental. The HUB in Page is a great place to inquire about local tours and events.
