This tour is 6 days on the road and is one of the most comprehensive Indian Country tours available. If you want a total American Indian experience, plus some of the most vast and breathtaking scenery anywhere, this is it. Our first stop is magnificent Sedona, seated at the base of red rock formation jutting 3,000 feet above the city. From here we journey up and up and up, through Oak Creek Canyon, to the 7,000 foot level and into Ponderosa Pine forests on our way to the Grand Canyon where we take the 50 mile long rim road and stop at numerous overlooks to marvel at the magnificence of one of the world's most awesome landscapes. The next day we journey to Monument Valley, where erosion and volcanism combine to form some of the most impressive geological formations in the world.
Rock spires rise from nowhere with a shape which almost defies logic.
Our group of hearty adventurers will take a native owned jeep tour through this spectacular scenery, to marvel at and be astounded by geological features which rewrote the science as we know it. After the jeep tour, a cookout under the stars will complete the day's sojourn. Initially developed at the bases of the three mesas and later moved to the tops to avoid aggressive invaders of the thirteenth century, these areas are the heart of the Hopi people and culture today. For history and anthropology buffs, there are the villages of old Oraibi and Walpi, the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in North America. You will be able to meet Hopi artisans and see them at work on their amazing crafts and purchase directly from the artist if you are so inclined.
