## What is Monument Valley Navajo Guide?

Discover the landscape director John Ford described as “where God put the West” with this jaw-dropping self-guided driving tour through Monument Valley, Utah!

Monument Valley:
Explore the valley that’s become the quintessential Hollywood image for the Wild West! There’s a reason this staggeringly beautiful, untouched landscape is so popular on the silver screen, but that’s nothing compared to experiencing it in person. The seemingly endless flatland broken by looming, impossible buttes and mesas is a truly awe-inspiring sight.

See the spot where Forrest Gump famously ended his long run in the Tom Hanks film and snap a few stunning photos to show your friends. Cruise along vast flatland surrounded by towering, ancient monoliths, and hear how such a strange landscape actually formed. Plus, listen to the tale of a brash, greedy silver prospector who tried to steal from this land and paid the ultimate price.

Learn the history and traditions of the Navajo who control this valley, and hear about the families who live here to this day—without running water or electricity! There’s no place on earth like Monument Valley, so get out there and witness the true American West.

Featuring compelling stories, a lively narrator, and easy automatic audio, this app puts exploration in the palm of your hand!

### 5/5 — Worth the Price

*2026-08-18*

The tour would have been ok without this guide but it was exceptional with this.

### 1/5 — Just crashing

*2024-09-27*

Hope I get a refund. Next week the app will do me no good

**Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. The iOS 18 update issue has now been fully resolved, and we hope the support team was able to assist with your refund request. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to make things right, and please reach out if there’s anything more we can do to help.

### 1/5 — Potential but not there yet

*2022-09-17*

Downloaded Monument Valley tour beforehand . About 10% of it worked in actual tour due to mapping features. Doesn’t work offline without WiFi which doesn’t exist in middle of desert. Had to restart 20 times. Info that did work was interesting but not worth hassle factor for money

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! Our tours are designed to work 100% offline once they’ve been downloaded, so I’m not sure what happened in this case. Were you able to contact our 24/7 support team to resolve the issue? They should be able to help in cases like this, where something unusual has occurred.

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2022-08-21*

Wanted to download an audio tour while we self drove the 17 mile route around a monument valley. When it worked it was very good and informative. Despite downloading it (phone coverage is poor) it didn’t always work and I had to keep restarting the app. However for £5.99 it was ok and helped us learn about the area and various sights.

### 1/5 — Awful!! Waste of money

*2021-11-14*

It only works correctly if you start in Mexcision Hat and drive south. it cuts off and is hard to get back started.

**Developer response:** Our tour starts at Mexican Hat & continues to Monument Valley. You are free to only drive the Monument Valley portion, but the tour will not work backward (as mentioned clearly in multiple places). Please be sure to follow the tour’s directions to have the best experience.

### 5/5 — Fun Tour

*2020-07-24*

Even beautiful landscapes can start to seem repetitive after a few hours, so it was nice to have this “tour guide” in the car with us giving us some additional context and fun stories. Also, much more cost effective than the reservation’s tour companies!

**Developer response:** We're so glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for the review!

### 5/5 — Informative!

*2020-07-24*

Without this App, I would have driven through the valley and enjoyed the views but would have not learnt so much! Having a narrator point out stuff made the whole drive very enjoyable.. like going on a private tour!

**Developer response:** We're so glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for the review!

### 5/5 — Very informative

*2020-07-23*

Amazing area. I was glad we downloaded this app. If not, we would have missed many viewpoints.

**Developer response:** We're so glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for the review!

### 5/5 — Max flexibility, good value

*2020-07-23*

You basically just start the full tour, plug the phone into your car, and drive around per the directions. The audio starts by itself which is very useful. The landscape is absolutely astounding so having a little context about it (and around it) is great. Excellent value and a nice narration voice. A few notes.... you may be approaching from the south (Arizona side) in which case you want to manually play the stops which are outside MV. The tour assumes you’re arriving from the north (Utah side) but it won’t be a big deal if you’re not. Also keep in mind that the Navajo Nation can choose to close MV at any time so read up before you go. It’s not a National Park, it’s reservation land. The tour needs you to drive at the speed limit for it to work properly without one story getting cut off by the next one. Just be sure to download it ahead of time because signal and wifi are VERY spotty. Overall good value!

**Developer response:** We're so glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for the review!
