"A visit to Antelope Canyon" Page Things to Do Tip by JanPeter74

There are two ways to visit Antelope Canyon. One is to book a airconditioned Jeep trip with some 30 fellow-tourists, starting in Page. (price around US$40)

We did it the alternative way: Antelope Canyon lies on a piece of land that belongs to Navajo indians. When you go there yourself by car, you will find some indians sitting in the shade.

You pay an admission fee of around US$10 and they drive you in the back of a pick-up truck in 10 minutes to the entrance of the canyon, give you a short introduction and tell you that they will pick you up an hour or so later. You can explore the canyon on your own (not dangerous).We were there with only one other couple.

I don't have to tell you that this is much more fun than walking in line with 30 people behind a tourguide. Such a group arrived just when we were about to leave.

When coming from the direction of Page, you take roadnumber 98 to the east. After some miles you will find a powerplant (run by Navajo indians) on your LEFTt. Just before or after the powerplant, you will find the entrance to the piece of Navajo land on your RIGHT. You will find some Navajos waiting for you in a kind of covered waiting area.

Address: Along road 98 a few miles east of Page
