The mother of the company in her 70's guided our tour. Amazing how she was able to easily maneuver though the canyon. She was very wise in the Navajo culture. You could see she had a strong heart for her culture. My husband and I loved her stories. Loved that this company is small and family owned. We happened to have a private tour which was awesome. Becoming off season. We loved the vision hee daughter has for the company and that the matriarch only wants to hire guides that have they heart!! ❤️ of course the canyon was beautiful. I am an amateur photographer, so I was engrossed with all the designs on the rock. We even recommended Mysical to a German couple the next day while stopping at the Navajo National Museum Monument.

A special shout-out to Josh for keeping us laughing and teaching us so much about this beautiful place. Being able to visit both upper and lower canyons was amazing! 10/10 recommend this tour!

We had a wonderful tour in Antelope Canyon X. Our guise Al was our guide and he was friendly, relaxing, informative, and had a sense of humor. He offered photo taking for all the people in our group. It was a very sunny and hot day. Al also offered a complimentary bottle of cold water. He looked like an angel. Highly recommended.

Ken’s Tours | A historical context

1992: Kenneth and his siblings start taking guided tours of Lower Antelope Canyon.
1994: Ken’s Tours LLC becomes an incorporated tour provider, and they officially run as a guided tour business due to an increase in demand and interest.
1997: Tragic flash floods resulted in the canyon region being closed by the Navajo Nation, as 11 people lost their lives. National coverage of the incident led to an increase in vandalism, trespassing, and damage to the slot canyon section.
1998: The Navajo Nation requests Ken’s Tours to resume operations because of the damage & vandalism caused by the trespassers. Kenneth, his son, and son-in-law build safe staircases & install handrails to ensure the incident does not take place again.

Frequently asked questions about Ken’s Tours

What makes Ken’s Tours different from other Lower Antelope Canyon tour operators?

Ken’s Tours is one of the original Navajo-operated companies authorized to guide visitors through Lower Antelope Canyon. Their guides are local Navajo residents who share firsthand stories, cultural interpretations, and photography tips that enhance the experience. The tours also begin directly at the canyon entrance, minimizing shuttle transfers and wait times.

How long is the Lower Antelope Canyon tour, and how strenuous is it?

The tour typically lasts about 60 to 90 minutes, covering a walk of roughly 0.6 miles through the winding sandstone passageways. While it’s not a long hike, visitors should be comfortable climbing several metal staircases and narrow steps, as the terrain involves descending into the canyon and uneven surfaces throughout.

How does Ken’s Tours handle weather-related closures or flash floods?

Since the canyon is prone to flash flooding, Ken’s Tours closely monitors local weather and Navajo Nation advisories. In case of a weather closure, guests are either rescheduled or refunded. Safety is the top priority, and tours will not operate under any risk conditions.

Is there parking available at the Ken’s Tours site?

Yes. There’s a large parking area right at the Ken’s Tours check-in site, which is where you will begin your tour. Parking is complimentary for guests, and restrooms are conveniently located on-site, available before the tour begins.

Are tours available year-round?

Yes, Ken’s Tours operates year-round, with slightly adjusted hours during winter. While summer brings warmer temperatures and more vivid lighting, winter visits offer a quieter and more private experience with smaller groups.
