Upper Antelope Canyon is a breathtaking slot canyon located in the Navajo Nation. Known for its stunning rock formations and light beams that shine through the canyon’s narrow openings, it offers an unforgettable experience for visitors.

The full tour is approximately 1.5 hours long. It includes a 15-minute shuttle ride to the canyon, about 40 minutes walking through the canyon, a 20-minute hike around the top of the canyon back to the shuttles, and another 15-minute ride back to the starting point.

While most of Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time (DST), the Navajo Nation, which extends into northeastern Arizona, does observe DST. Consequently, during DST months (typically March through November), the Navajo Nation operates on Mountain Daylight Time (MDT), while surrounding areas, including Page, Arizona, remain on Mountain Standard Time (MST). To maintain consistency with our proximity to Page, we operate on MST year-round, aligning with Page’s time.
