Customer Reviews
One of the most unique landscapes in the states. Spent two days visiting the place. The 17 mile loop was spectacular with numerous view points, all of which were very uniques. Wildcat trail was an easy chill hike. The visitor center has a small museum inside where you will find some stories of the native people
Unique landscape you don't see much of anywhere else. Overall a great ride. You do need a 4x4 to do the 14 mile ride or you can take a tour.
Breathtaking. Visiting in Winter was so nice with low temperatures overnight but few crowds. Incredible to see these sights and understand the history of the area. A couple of days was plenty of time and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. 🌄🥾
Monument Valley is an absolute gem that you can’t afford to miss! With its breathtaking landscapes and iconic red rock formations, it’s a place that captures the imagination and leaves you in awe. Whether you're a photography enthusiast or just looking to embrace the beauty of nature, Monument Valley promises an unforgettable experience.
The views are amazing. The self-guided auto tour takes about two hours. The dirt road is very rough so I don't suggest a vehicle with low clearance. All the points of interest are clearly marked.
