After that little hike you well be able to see an up-close view of some Anasazi Ruins. You well get to see a very beautiful view of Monument Valley from a lookout point located on the mesa behind the high school. Not a lot of people know of this place because it is located outside of the Navajo Tribal Park, so if you want to do some extra stuff in Monument Valley, Tear Drop Arch Tour can give you something to do.

Tear Drop Arch is located outside the Tribal Park, there is a bit of hiking to get to the arch and around to the ruins but well worth the hike. This tour is an extra tour we offer if you want to explore Monument Valley a little more. We don’t get much bookings on this tour but it is well worth the trip. It’s more of a private local area place where locals go for a quick get away and you well be able to see Monument Valley from a higher point. You well be able to see the buttes spread out below. Very beautiful view looking out towards the East. The look out point alone has a beautiful view, the ruins and the tear drop arch are also very unique and beautiful.

Why this scores 41
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Monument Valley.
How much does Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch) cost?
+
Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Monument Valley usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch) take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Monument Valley is not rushed.
Is Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 41 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Monument Valley, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch)?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch)?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Monument Valley can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Monument Valley and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tear Drop Arch Tour (3SNGT Tear Drop Arch) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Monument Valley within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Monument Valley?
+
Monument Valley is only fully accessible with Navajo guides: backcountry 4x4 tours into restricted areas, sunrise and sunset photo runs, horseback rides and cultural storytelling. On Outty we rank every Monument Valley experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 Hour Monument Valley Tour, 2.5 Hours of Monument Valley's Backcountry 4×4 Tour, Monument Valley Group Tour - 3 Hours - Navajo Spirit Tours. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Monument Valley?
+
April to May and September to October for mild temperatures. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Monument Valley?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
