Route
How does the day work?
A safety briefing at Antelope Point comes before the paddle to Antelope Canyon and the walk through its dry section.
- 15 min
1. Antelope Point Launch Ramp
You sign the waiver and receive a life jacket. The safety briefing takes place before the group launches onto Lake Powell.
- 75 min
2. Lake Powell
You paddle into Antelope Canyon with your guide. The route runs from the open water of Lake Powell between the canyon walls.
- 90 min
3. Lower Antelope Canyon
You walk the dry canyon reached from Lake Powell. Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon walking tours use separate entrances and bookings.
- 60 min
4. Lake Powell
You paddle out through Antelope Canyon and back across Lake Powell with your guide. Swimming depends on the time left.
The 4-hour plan allocates 15 minutes to orientation and 90 minutes to hiking. Paddling gets 75 minutes out and 60 minutes back. Your return point is Antelope Point Launch Ramp.
Pickup and meeting point
- Arrival: Arrive 30 minutes before the tour starts. You need that time for the waiver and safety briefing before the group goes onto the water.
- Finding Red Rock: Your guide waits by the kayak trailers at the bottom of Antelope Point Public Launch Ramp. Your booking directions use Google Maps.
- Transport: You'll need your own ride to Antelope Point and back. Guides carry the kayaks on the steep shore, while you walk to the water yourself.
Before you book
- Guides handle the kayak carry, while you walk down to the water and back. Bring your own drinking water for the 4-hour trip.

Good to know
Know before you go
You can join from age 5. The tour isn't recommended during pregnancy or with spinal injuries. Poor cardiovascular health is another reason to skip the paddle.
A dry bag and paddling gear come with your booking. You supply drinking water and snacks for the 4-hour trip. Wear shoes suited to walking on the canyon floor.
Bad weather can cancel the tour. You then get another date or a full refund. Check the local forecast before travel, since storms can also make narrow canyon walks unsafe.
Bookings accept 1 to 11 travelers and need an adult. You may join a group of up to 20. The tour can be canceled if too few people book.
Antelope Point check-in uses Page time, or MST year-round. Navajo Nation clocks run one hour ahead from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. Otherwise the clocks match, so keep your phone on Phoenix time.
You can cancel free at least 24 hours before departure. Later cancellations get no refund. Your reservation is accepted immediately after booking, and entry uses the booking on your phone.
