I think the right word to describe our first visit to Antelope Canyon is highly chaotic. On our drive there, we missed a detour and had to make up for about 30 miles, and halfway through the drive, I realized that I didn’t have my tripod with me. We still managed to reach the canyon tours location on time, but I had underestimated the popularity of the upper canyons by a large margin. These canyons are also relatively short, with multiple tour groups managing crowds of tourists.

On my second visit, I altogether avoided the upper canyon. Instead, I went to the lower antelope canyon, which is slightly more and has quite a steep access making it a less popular place to visit. Thankfully, the touring company offered assisted photo tours, and this time, I picked the right company with quite knowledgeable guides. As a result, the second time at the canyon was much more relaxing, and I came back with many keepers. I love these two slot canyons, and I am still amazed that a location like this exists. Still, after touring some other slot canyons of the southwest that are equally spectacular with a lot more privacy, I am doubtful if I will ever revisit these canyons.
