Welcome to the Wild West 🏜. A sacred space with panoramic vistas, epic buttes, and a wonderland of spires. It’s magical ✨ —wouldn’t you agree?
•
We learned a ton about visiting #MonumentValley yesterday. While it’s not easy, it’s so worth it! Here’s what you need to know: 
•
📍As of Dec. 2021 the Navajo Nation has re-opened the park, but only 25 vehicles per hour can enter the self-drive 17-mile loop.
 •
📍 Enter the park between 8am - 2:30pm. ARRIVE EARLY—by 8:30am it would have been a 2hr wait to drive the park. (Granted this is a holiday week!)
•
📍 To beat the crowds you can also pre-book a Navajo guided tour. Based on reviews we selected monumentvalleytribaltours, and it was absolutely epic. You’ll be in an off-road 🚐 that takes you into the vast backcountry 🤩. TIP—book on their website instead of TripAdvisor to save $5! In winter, it cost us $85/person for 3.5 hr tour + $20 group park entry. Worth the splurge? We thought so ♥️.
•
ALWAYS check online for current closures and restrictions! 
•
👋Lots more to come—we’re touring the American southwest this week! 🚐🤩
