Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend Day Tour from Las Vegas — Lunch Included
A full-day coach trip from Las Vegas brings you into the Navajo sandstone of Antelope Canyon and up to the dramatic Horseshoe Bend overlook. Expect long drives, guided canyon time, lunch, and unforgettable light shows.
The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate Thoroughly
Carry at least 2 liters of water and sip frequently — desert heat and a long coach day dehydrate faster than you expect.
Camera Ready at Midday
For Antelope Canyon light beams aim for late morning to early afternoon; pack a fast lens and be prepared for crowds.
Sturdy Footwear
The Horseshoe Bend approach is sandy and uneven; closed-toe hiking shoes with grip make the short hike safer and more comfortable.
Respect Navajo Guidance
Follow your Navajo guide’s instructions inside Antelope Canyon; they control timing, safety, and cultural protocols.

Conservation Note
Flash floods and heavy foot traffic threaten fragile slot canyon ecosystems; stay on established paths, follow guide rules, and pack out waste to reduce impact.
The slot canyons and river corridor sit within Navajo Nation lands; many tours are operated by Navajo guides who steward access and share cultural context.
