Getting started

Meet your expert English-speaking guide at Antelope Point Launch Ramp 30 minutes before your tour.

What to expect

Lake Powell kayaking experience

Begin your adventure on the water, paddling through Lake Powell toward the mouth of Antelope Canyon. As the route carries you between towering sandstone walls, you’ll experience the canyon from a perspective that’s only possible from the lake, with calm stretches of water making it easy to settle into a comfortable paddling rhythm.

Features

  • Scenic Lake Powell paddle: Kayak across the lake toward Antelope Canyon, surrounded by towering sandstone cliffs and desert scenery that takes on a whole new scale from water level.

  • Canyon by water: Paddle into the lower section of Antelope Canyon and watch the landscape transition from open lake to increasingly dramatic canyon walls shaped by water and time.

  • Expert local guidance: Follow your English-speaking guide throughout the route for paddling tips, local insights, and information about the landscape as you make your way toward the canyon.

  • All essential gear: Your kayak, paddle, U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jacket, and dry bag are provided, while your guides take care of kayak transportation and heavy lifting.

  • Optional swim: If conditions permit, take a refreshing swim in Lake Powell during the kayaking portion before continuing your journey into the canyon.

Antelope Canyon hike

Once you reach the shallower end of the water route, leave your kayak behind and continue on foot into the lower section of Antelope Canyon. Walking between the narrowing sandstone walls gives you a closer look at the curves, textures, and formations carved into the rock over thousands of years.

Features

  • Guided Canyon walk: Hike through the lower section of Antelope Canyon with your guide, getting close to its sculpted sandstone walls and distinctive slot-canyon formations.

  • Water-to-land adventure: Experience Antelope Canyon from two perspectives in one continuous excursion—first from the water, then on foot as you venture deeper between the canyon walls.

  • Moderate-fitness experience: The combination of kayaking and hiking provides an active way to explore the area, with your guide setting the pace and helping you navigate the route.

  • Dry bag for essentials: Keep small personal items protected in the provided dry bag while moving between the kayak and canyon sections of the experience.

  • One guided journey: Your guide coordinates the transition from paddling to hiking, keeping the experience seamless as you move from Lake Powell into Antelope Canyon and back.
