Next time your road tripping through the southwest and find yourself near Page, Arizona then you’ve got to make sure this slot canyon tour is on your bucket list. (Advanced reservations are recommended.) Antelope Slot Canyon is one of the most popular slot canyons in the world and for good reason. The canyon is formed from Navajo sandstone, which has been eroded over millions of years by flash floods and wind. This erosion has created a series of narrow passageways with towering walls that are only accessible to those who book a tour.
There are a few canyon tours to choose from, but we recommend the Upper Antelope Canyon Tour which lasts about 90-mins and is suitable for ages 6+. Upper Antelope Canyon is the more popular of the two, and it is known for its light beams that shine down through the canyon walls in the midday hours. Tour guides provide the best photography tips and tricks and there are multiple time slots to choose from for a different lighting experience.
When is the best time to visit?
The best time to visit Antelope Slot Canyon is between March and October, when the weather is warm and there is less chance of flash floods. However, the canyon can be crowded during this time, so it is important to book your tour in advance.
How much hiking is involved?
A ten to twenty minute walk is required to get up the staircase and walkways up and over the canyon and back to the Luxury Van.
