It's cooler temperature down there so don't worry if it's hot during your tour. I can't believe the canyons are 70 feet deep! When you see pictures online, you would never think that this type of place exists on earth and that these canyons are so long and winding. It was soooo cool that it was all created solely by water erosion. Lamor pointed out all of the canyon's stone landmarks. I know they say that the Upper Antelope Canyon is a bit more crowded so maybe the Lower Antelope Canyon feels more relaxed. I never felt rushed or felt like we were walking like sardines in the canyons. Our tour guide Lamor was so kind and informative. I think both tours go the same route so there is really no difference. One is Ken's Tours and the other one is Dixie. The Antelope Canyons are slot canyons on Navajo land and you must book a tour with one of the two Navajo tour operators to go.

DON'T WAIT AND GO! This was one of the most breathtaking things I've ever experienced in my life and I'm so glad I did the drive from Sedona to do the tour. Farther north, Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon in Page typically see smaller crowds in December and January.If you're reading this, and hesitating about whether it's worth it to go. Sedona’s other trails, as are other famous Arizona destinations, are far less crowded this time of year. It eliminates the stress of trying to find parking. For people visiting Thursdays through Sundays, the Sedona Shuttle runs in loops from park-and-ride lots in town to the popular trailheads. It’s about a two-mile hike to the arch from either parking lot. There are two trailhead parking lots to choose from: Dry Creek and Mescal. This time of year, especially if you go mid-week, you’ll likely only find a few other people at Devil’s Bridge. Sometimes, the wait is longer than an hour.

People line up along the rocks, waiting for their turn to walk across the bridge for photos. Hiking to the natural red rock arch, you’ll be surrounded by people from all over the country and all over the world. The cooler months, December and January, may be the best time of year for Arizonans to enjoy our state’s natural wonders.ĭevil’s Bridge, for example, is one of the most “Insta-famous” spots in Sedona.
