Men's long sleeved thermal with Kens Tour's left chest logo. 60% Cotton/40% polyester. Lower Antelope Canyon. After checking in at Ken’s Lower Antelope Canyon Tours, and perhaps enjoying a coffee and browsing for souvenirs at the on-site gift shop, you’ll descend down a series of ladders into Antelope Canyon’s softly lit chambers, between sensuously swirling canyon walls. There are only two tours that service Lower Antelope Canyon: Ken’s Tours and Dixie Ellis’ Lower Antelope Canyon Tours. They’re similar in price and service. I went with Ken’s Tours and had a phenomenal experience. Our guide was very helpful in taking photos.

On the Water

After completing your tour through Lower Antelope Canyon, you’ll be given directions to nearby Antelope Point Marina, where the second half of your adventure takes place: on the water! After checking in at the tour boat counter, a guest services attendant will give you a lift to the dock, where an open-air tour boat piloted by a U.S. Coast Guard waits to welcome you aboard. You’ll cruise between towering sandstone walls, where the patina of millions of years of rainfall tells the story of how these canyons were formed. As the passage becomes narrower and narrower, you catch a glimpse of the beginnings of the slot canyon, and finally, make the connection: this is where the flood waters that sculpted Antelope Canyon complete their journey, and are stored for eventual use for irrigation and culinary purposes in Lake Powell. Eventually, your boat can proceed no further up the channel. Your trained captain turns your vessel around effortlessly, and you make your way back to the marina with a deeper appreciation for Antelope Canyon’s size, scope, and complexity, and its place in the greater Glen Canyon ecosystem.

Upon disembarking from your Antelope Point Marina tour boat, you are welcome to linger for as long as you wish at the lakeside complex that consists of a restaurant, cocktail lounge, gift shop, and marina store. When you are ready to head out, simply flag down a guest services attendant for a ride back up the ramp to the parking lot. Your photos and memories of this day will last a lifetime, but what was really great about it is that you didn’t have to wade through multiple websites and juggle sold out tours in order to make it work. All it took was one easy reservation to handle all the arrangements. Lots of Northern Arizona vacation planners are already taking advantage of this never-before-available opportunity, so don’t get left in the dust. Book your seats today!

You wouldn’t travel all the way to London, England, snap a photo of Big Ben, then turn around and go back home. Call a visit to Paris, France ‘good’ with a quick selfie at the Eiffel Tower? It would never happen. Why? Because you’d have only scratched the surface of the scenic and cultural richness these cities have to offer. While Antelope Canyon in Page, AZ, is not a city, it is nonetheless a complex, multi-faceted eco-system that should be seen from both the land-side and water-side to be fully understood and appreciated.

The Lower Antelope Canyon Land + Boat Tour is literally a trip back through millions of years of time. After checking in at Ken’s Lower Antelope Canyon Tours, and perhaps enjoying a coffee and browsing for souvenirs at the on-site gift shop, you’ll descend down a series of ladders into Antelope Canyon’s softly lit chambers, between sensuously swirling canyon walls. Sculptors like Rodin and Michealangelo are no match for the power and artistry of wind, water, and eons. Throughout your 2-hour tour, your Navajo Indian guide will point out exquisitely carved formations in the rocks, such as the Lion’s Den, the Eagle, and Lady in the Wind. Looking skyward, you’ll recognize whimsical shapes framed by the sandstone walls, such as the Seahorse and the Goldfish.

After returning to Ken’s Tours headquarters, you’ll be given directions to nearby Antelope Point Marina for your boat tour. After checking in at the boat tour desk inside the Antelope Point Marina Visitors Center, you can walk down the ramp to the boat dock, or have a guest services attendant will drive you down in a golf cart. You’ll board a comfortable, open-air tour boat and set off for the water-side of Antelope Canyon. Red sandstone walls, adorned with dark desert varnish rise high above you. Up ahead of you, these same canyon walls get closer and closer together until the passage becomes so narrow, your boat can travel no further! Nothing to worry about – your U.S. Coast Guard certified captain has the skill and the trained eye to get your boat headed back in the right direction in complete safety. In the course of one hour, you’ll come to comprehend the true complexity of Antelope Canyon as a dynamic and ever-changing landscape, and how it relates to the surrounding landscape of Lake Powell. Complimentary water is provided on the tour boat, and snack packs are available for purchase.

Time and appetite permitting, you are welcome to stick around and grab a bite to eat at one of Antelope Point Marina’s food and beverage outlets, such as The Point Restaurant, Grandma Betty’s or The Sandbar Lounge, or pick up a memento of your visit in the Marina gift shop.
