Antelope Canyon is one of our most popular and requested tours. This is obviously due to the completely unique landscape that is presented at Antelope Canyon, with the slot canyon walls rising dramatically on both sides of the path. The "Crack" and the "Corkscrew" are the two hiking paths that make up Antelope Canyon, and they are a combination of completely natural terrain and safety measures such as railings embedded into the rock which assist explorers to both walk and hike through the area more safely as well as protecting against flash flooding which can be deadly if a severe enough flood was to present itself while you are within the slot. While safety measures like staircases might not be the most natural looking things in the world, they are a necessary evil in order to protect our tours. Flash flooding is what actually created Antelope Canyon, and the rushing water will carry away anything in its path in many cases. In 2006 the flooding was so bad that it lasted 36 hours and closed the park for more than five months. Professional tour groups are the only ones allowed to move through the Antelope Canyon area, as they have to utilize all weather notices and understand all safety precautions that Navajo Nation requires in order to maintain the safety of the visitors. You cannot "self-tour" the area, due to the concerns about flash flooding that can have no visible clues when standing inside of the slot. That said, the majority of times that we offer tours to Antelope Canyon as a part of our multi-day tours, we will be able to complete the tour without an issue. If inclement weather does not allow us to visit the canyon on the day of our tour, then we will instead visit
