Antelope Canyon X Hiking Tour (with Option Upgrade to Photo Tour)
Description
Antelope Canyon X, located southeast of Lower Antelope canyon by the gateway town of Page, Arizona, is named after the Xs carved into the Navajo Sandstone created by millions of years of rainfall and wind. This part of the canyon is chiseled out by millions of years’ worth of flood erosion and impactful winds on its sandstone, enough to sculpt out the iconic "X" shape that aptly named the canyon. Canyon X is a relatively new scenic tour and the lesser-known cousin of Upper/Lower Antelope Canyon, which results in fewer visitors by comparison to the other two. Canyon X is a mixture of the characteristics of both the Upper and Lower canyon, with the Upper’s feature of pillars of light and the Lower’s steepness. Canyon X is also deeper than the other two and brings ample photo opportunities. It truly is a great vacation spot for photography as well.

Itinerary
The 1.5-hour Antelope Canyon X hiking tour begins at the Navajo Nation Reservation. After parking and payment, you are transported in a 4×4 transport vehicle 3 miles to the mouth of Antelope Canyon X, where you then hike 100 meters into Antelope Canyon X. At the bottom, tour guides assist you through a tour of the first slot canyon. After the first slot canyon is complete, guides accompany you on the 200-meter walk to the second slot canyon. If you are choosing the photography tour, you will have 2.5 hours in canyon. This tour is for photography hobbyists, people looking to spend more time in the canyon and make use of a tripod.

Guide was good ,not rushed,nice to see the property is being respected,and it’s run by family members
Absolutely amazing!!! Our guide was wonderful. He helped us with pictures and made our memories more precious. His flute playing was a lovely addition to the tour.
Great tour! We had an amazing guide who was very informative, funny, and even took several great pics of our family!
The Tour Guide made the experience, he was so knowledgeable and kind and was willing to take pictures of each of the groups on the tour. Highly recommend!
It was a must-see experience! They can help you with photos to capture the best Instagram worthy pictures. I was also great to learn how these canyons were formed and some history with them and the Navajo land.
Booked Antelope Canyon X tour a day before. Few hours before the tour operator canceled for no reason. Now we are stuck without the tour as it is sold out. Avoid, dishonest operator.

This tour was a highlight of our vacation. So very glad we visited here. Pictures we took were stunning. There are a number of steps down to the actual canyon that must be navigated back to the top. But this stop was so very worth it!
A great experience with some beautiful spots for photography. Our guide was also full of stories about the area. A really worthwhile visit.
Phenomenal experience. Our guide Mike was great. Very knowledgeable. We never felt rushed. Not too many people in the canyon at the same time.
Garrett, our tour guide, was the best! Had a lot of great knowledge of the canyon and took great photos of our group.
