Day Three
Breakfast is included before you depart for a tour of the fabulous and beautiful Monument Valley where you will discover why it is considered one of the centerpieces of beauty on Navajo Land.

Lunch is on your own in Kayenta before you depart for Canyon de Chelly. You will thrill to the delights of the beautiful and breathtaking Canyon de Chelly! Nowhere in Navajo land is the blend of past tradition and present culture more evident than at Canyon de Chelly National Monument,, This Monument is home to several periods of Indian Culture dating from 350 A.D. to 1300 A.D. The 26-mile Canyon’s sheer cliffs range from 30 to more than 1,000 ft. providing a spectacular backdrop for hundreds of Anasazi Ruins, as well as modern Navajo homes and farms. Continue to Window Rock and check into the Quality Inn in Window Rock.

This park has many symbolic structures: a circular path outlining the four cardinal directions, 16 angled steel pillars with the name of war veterans, and a healing sanctuary that is used for reflection and solitude that features a fountain made of sandstone. Also visit the Navajo Nation Tribal Chambers – similar to our US Capitol Building. Lunch is included at St. Michael Indian School. Then depart for the Hubbell Trading Post and National Historic Site.
