The Monument Valley Air and Ground Tour offers a comprehensive journey through some of Arizona's most striking landscapes, starting with a scenic flight from Phoenix. As the aircraft lifts off, the vast Red Rock formations of Sedona unfold below, each ridge and pinnacle catching the sun like a silent guardian of the desert.
The flight arcs northward past the imposing San Francisco Peaks, visible even here in their snow-capped grandeur, before crossing the Painted Desert’s rust-hued expanses. Depending on flight conditions, a brief flyover of Page and the shimmering waters of Lake Powell teases the interplay of desert and water.
Touching down at Gouldings Field, the adventure continues on rugged 4x4 terrain. A Navajo guide navigates the dusty paths of Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, pointing out geological pillars sculpted by wind and time, and sharing cultural insights tied to these sacred grounds. John Ford’s Point drama unfolds in front of your eyes—a panorama immortalized in countless Western films.
After the tour, a Navajo Taco lunch at Gouldings Lodge offers a pause to absorb the day’s sights. The return flight traces a route over Meteor Crater, an ancient meteorite scar etched into the desert floor, before descending back into the urban sprawl of Phoenix.
This full-day tour spans roughly eight hours and appeals to those looking for an integrated aerial and ground experience of the Southwest’s landmarks.
Hotel pickup is available but must be scheduled separately with Westwind Aviation for an additional fee.
