Overview

Each tour is lead by an experienced Navajo guide, who is certified by the Navajo Nation Parks & Recreation Dept. and National Park Service. Each and everyone of our guides was born and raised in this Canyon De Chelly area, allowing them to gain a vast knowledge of its history to share with all our guests who visit this place we call home. As well as learning about the canyon's rich history, rock art sites and other archeological sites, you will hear stories and tales of life in the canyon and get a chance (time permitted and seasonal option) to visit our guide's families who still weave, farm, ranch, and continue to live a traditional Navajo lifestyle in this rural part of the southwest. We invite you to join one of our guides on a truly unique and one of a kind tour, and to support this 100% NAVAJO OWNED and OPERATED SMALL BUSINESS!! Ahéhee' (thank you)

Our guide was fantastic. He was personable, really knowledgeable and made our experience very special. It was such a good way to see the canyon and to understand the history and culture of the people who have lived here.

This tour was a great suprise. We were picked up by our tour guide Viola who drove us into what seemed like a hidden gem of beautiful red rock canyons. She grew up in this area so was able to give a first hand perspective of what it was like growing up in the canyon. Melting snow run-off water was flowing through the wash that traverses the canyon floor and we had many crossings through the water in the jeep we rode in. It was very fun and cooling on a warm day. Viola have a good description of the pictographs, petroglyphs, and cliff dwellings we saw. The history in the canyon is mind boggling. This tour was very good for my husband who has limited mobility. The 3 hour tour went by way too fast. I highly recommend this tour by Beauty Way Jeep tours.

A big shout out to Lee at Beauty Way Jeep Tours. We completed our private tour today and I cannot say enough about it. It was 3+ hours, he picked us up at our hotel. We discussed the Navajo culture, viewed right from below several historic ruins, had the opportunity to ask numerous questions. Lee shared his experience as a local who grew up in the canyon. Taking a jeep tour is the best way to capture the magic of the canyon and to witness incredible cultural significance of this area. I highly recommend Beauty Way Jeep Tours!

Leander and his team worked so beautifully together in our caravan of four jeeps, each carrying one couple and a guide. There had been high water in the canyon for a couple of days and tours were suspended. Leander stayed in communication with us until it was safe to resume tours in the Canyon. Our tour lasted a total of four hours, and we made numerous stops to talk about ruins or pic graphs, or just the beauty of the canyon. The guides told us about their childhood growing up in the canyon and shared some of the Navajo culture and beliefs. And we felt completely safe with them as they were excellent drivers and some very demanding conditions going through high water and Sandy Shores. A highlight for us was when one of the guides chanted Navajo song and then played on his flute —absolutely magical. I highly recommend Beauty Way Tours and if we’re in the area again, will definitely schedule another tour with this wonderful team.
