Re: What looks dangerous is relative

I think they actually have a tour with the Navaho guide for Monument Valley Park and Antelop, via G Adventures. See description below. (G Adventures is into visiting local places, helping the environment and sustainable travel. Also they are cheaper than most of the companies, and tours are limited to about 12-15 people. And there's lots of options, and down time if you want it.

"We'll jet off this morning to Page, Arizona, the gateway to famous Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend.

Join a local Navajo guide and explore Antelope Canyon; a stunning natural sandstone slot canyon located on tribal lands. Admire the blue sky above from the bottom of the canyon and make sure you bring your camera to take loads of photos.

Afterwards, visit Horseshoe Bend for a short hike to stand atop the steep cliffs overlooking the natural bend in the Colorado River. Today’s adventure will end in Monument Valley where you will have time to relax and unwind after a busy day of sightseeing.

Meals included: Breakfast | Lunch
Day 5Monument Valley/Grand Canyon National Park
This morning you’ll be treated to a sunrise Navajo guided jeep tour of Monument Valley. Admire the majesty and magnetic atmosphere of this special place before continuing on toward the Grand Canyon. En route, stop for lunch at a family-owned Navajo food truck, before arriving at the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon just in time for a spectacular sunset."

They didn't have this stuff prior to the pandemic - but I think a lot of people want to visit the national parks now, with all the documentaries about them viewed during the pandemic. I've been to quite a few of the parks, but there's a lot I haven't been to. And I know I'd like to go to them.

For some reason or other - I really just want to travel within the US right now, not so much outside of it, which is ironic, since I got my passport renewed in 2019, with the intention of traveling outside the US. LOL!
