Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend are bucket list items and I couldn't have been more pleased with the day trip. I was very impressed with the amount of orchestration and coordination needed between multiple pickup and drop off locations, time zone changes, the tight timing requirements of Ken's Tours, dealing and preparing for the unknowns, it was flawless and went so smoothly. Olivia was our guide, Shannon was our driver. Phenomenal. Olivia has charisma and was very patient and informative. Shannon was a boss. Props to her for the significant amount of miles and hours she put in today. Our Navajo guide was Brandon. I really appreciated his guidance and of course how well he could configure everyone's phones to capture the best pictures. Pro tip: fly directly into Page, AZ for these tours. They will save you money and time. I want to return and take the other canyon tours I didn't do. Highly recommend. Worth the money.

Overall experience was fantastic. Shuttle bus to and from the airfield made it easy. Snacks and champagne at the landing site were a nice addition to the tour. Most importantly our pilot, Doug was great. Very knowledgeable and descriptive, also very helpful and friendly and for me was the playlist. Not sure if it was his personal choice of tracks , or is it company's standard playlist for all the planes, but it did the job and worked perfectly with each stage of the flight
