What a great photo and video Mike, I have always wanted to go here, but given that I live on the east coast, not sure when I’ll make it.
Thanks so much Sean, appreciate the kudos!
Hello! My two boys and I are in Flagstaff Arizona. We drove from Houston and going back tomorrow Friday. Where do you recommend to stop on the way back?
Hi Daniela…I assume you’ll be heading out of town on I-40. I would drive through the Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert to start (1.5-3 hours). Past the park drop down Hwy 191 to AZ61/NM53 is El Morro (https://mikesroadtrip.com/el-morro-national-monument)…fantastic place for an easy hike and/or picnic. Not much farther across is a neat little park with an Ice Cave that might be worth a stop (1-2 hours. Near Grants, NM off Hwy 53). It’s a little out of the way, but Santa Fe is fantastic. If you’ve never been, this would be a wonderful place to stay the night. Those are a few suggestions and probably the most notable. Hope that helps. Have fun. Cheers, Mike
Oh perfect timing for this post! We are planning a 12 days road trip from Albuquerque(Balloon fiesta) to Las Vegas via National parks! So much to see, I just hope we have enough time! The Antelope Canyon is on the list! Have you heard about Buckskin Gulch? I’ve read that it’s as equally amazing as Antelope?
Hi Josee…thanks so much for stopping by. Oh, that is going to be an awesome road trip! I have heard of Buckskin Gulch, but have not been there. There are a number of amazing slot canyons around the area, but some are difficult to find. Antelope is very touristy, but still worth going. If you’re into photography, I would recommend doing that tour. It’s a bit more money, but there will be fewer people on your tour. Hope you have a fantastic time. Cheers, Mike
This place is beautiful. A good tip is to listen to your tour guide. While others were off exploring on their own, our guide was showing us the best angles for great photos, including one exit that looked like a bear, if the angle is just right.
Hi Michelle…very good advice indeed. It is so easy to become enamored by the place, but you’re right, the guides know many of the best shots. Thanks for sharing your tip. Hope you will check out the rest of the site. Cheers, Mike
