Upper Antelope Canyons

Can anyone recommend a decent guide that can take you into the canyons for a reasonable price? Anyone who has gone and used someone, please let me know.

do a search -- this has been answered recently & there is a short list (& all charge the same).

Someone on here recommended booking tours through the website listed below... check it out. The tour operators pay a small fee to this museum for booking their tours but it doesn't cost the tourist anymore than if you'd booked it directly.

We did Upper Antelope Slots Canyon last year. We went thought Grand Circle Adventures. It cost about $25 per person. We decided to use them for a few reasons. One, they drive you to the site in an air-conditioned suburban. In August, it was hot and so we appreciated the air conditioning. Once you go though the entrance, then you are driven thought a sandy river bed...it was nice having the windows up! Second, they only have room for a group of 7, so there aren't so many people crowded into the canyon at a time. It was a very personalized tour and we were in the canyon for 1 full hour.

Our price included the day pass and if we had wanted we could have driven over to the Lower Slots Canyon and seen them also. You don't need a guide for the lower slots canyon.

Found my list --

Antelope Canyon Adventures; Antelope Canyon Tours; Grand Circle Adventures; Overland Canyon Tours.

The only difference is the tour times. As Utahtea wrote, they try to limit the amount of people in the Canyon at the same time.
