Most tour companies are headquartered in Page, which is where you’ll meet them. Right near the border of Arizona and Utah, just outside of Page. Sadly as beautiful as it could be it’s impossible to enjoy the serenity or awe-inspiring qualities of these canyons when they’re packed with so many people. Your tour guide will show you the best spots to take photos from and will even show put your camera in the same location to recreate some of the million dollar award winning photos that have come out of these canyons. The “walk” through the canyon is a constant stream of people being herded in and out and feels more like cattle going into a chute than anything else. It’s another amazingly beautiful location that has become “insta-famous” and thus, fallen victim to the craze of social media – this place is more crowded and touristy than Disneyland! The majority of visitors are from oversees and I was amazed to hear some of the Native American guides talking with some tourists in Chinese telling them to move along and out of the canyon – just goes to show how many tourists come through here. What did surprise me however, was how obviously it was that making money is the name of the game when it comes to Antelope Canyon. There’s no surprise or denying the beauty of Antelope Canyon.
