The Best of Page, Arizona [+ 3 Hidden Gems]

You stated that Lee's Ferry is the only place to drive to Colorado River until Las Vegas. I just watched a video and found on Google Maps that you can drive to Diamond Creek Beach on the Colorado River and located north of Peach Springs on Rte 6 N, just an FYI.

Thank you for this very informative video

Your video helped me to flashback 50 years..I lived with my family in Page Arizona in 72 and 73 when I was 12 and 13. We used to camp out at Lake Powell all the time. We toured the Grand Canyon and traveled the Colorado River to Lake Mead also. We lived at Indian Springs Nevada prior to living in Page and we used to do a lot of camping and boating on Lake Mead and the Colorado River. I'll never forget my uncle and I catching 10 Rainbow Trout in 30 minutes flat from the river. Each one weighed over 10 lbs. We ate good and had a lot of fun. Life doesn't get much better than that. 🍷😎👌

I went to Glen Canyon Dam. I liked that were several places that you could look at the dam.

We just did lower antelope and it was $66 per adult and $35 per child, total for four with all fees and taxes was $244. A bit steep but worth the price. I don't know if they have dynamic pricing, but i recall when i was first looking seeing prices that would have put it near $400 for the four of us. Overall, I would say the experience was worth the money. The pace of going through the canyon was a little fast for me, like i felt like i had enough time to take the pictures but not enough time to take in the canyon. I look at it as a 1 time thing.

We also did horseshoe bend and it was nice but windy, so we were getting hit by sand and small pebbles at times, which was a little unpleasant. If it is windy wear long pants.

We stopped at Glen Canyon dam also. The visitor center is open, Thursday-Monday, closed Tuesday and Wednesday. We were there on Tuesday and Wednesday, so we missed out on that.

We went out on the rocks by the "The Chains" trail (just east of Glen Canyon Dam, also near "Hanging Gardens Trail") . That was a lot of fun climbing around the rocks and exploring. I climbed up pretty high on the rocks and had a great view of Lake Powell. Better view than the Wahweep overlook.

For our trip we started in San Jose, CA visited Zion, Bryce Canyon, Horseshoe bend, Antelope Canyon and Grand Canyon in that order.

One thing that is a must do when out in the middle of nowhere like this is to look at the stars. They are amazing on clear nights with no moon.

Overall, I would visit Zion and Bryce again, Grand Canyon and Horseshoe bend were more of checking the box off, and Antelope is in the cost to much to visit again category.

Bryce and Zion should be on everyone's must visit list.

there is still covid at this time in the USA? (arril 2023)

Great Photography !!! But... the background music is distracting and, imo, unnecessary.

We visited Page 3 weeks ago and the temperature was still very cold. Advantage was that there were not that many people and even with the high prices for Antelope Canyon we very much enjoyed the tour through the lower canyon.🙂🙂👍👍

If you are looking for a fantastic canyon hike with some mild scrambling, I would recommend the Cathedral Wash. It's on the way to Lee's Ferry.

I’ve been to Horseshoe Bend, but this video has a lot of great info! I agree, Antelope Canyon is expensive tho.

Another great video packed with good info! I’ve wondered about Antelope Canyon and why so expensive. Disappointing.

Tick tick tick, we cannot get enough of Arizona.

Have you seen Canyon X - because its cheaper....
