  • Want to re-live some of your favorite movies? Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park has set the scene for some of the biggest films in history, including Back To The Future 3, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Easy Rider, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Mission Impossible 2.
    Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park has a 17 mile scenic drive along the border of Utah and Arizona. This is part of tribal land and is still inhabited by members of the Navajo Nation. Along our drive, we stood in awe at towering sandstone cliffs over 1000 ft tall, standing strong in a vast open land almost 10,000 acres wide.
    After your visit to Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, don't forget to check out Forrest Gump Hill, but be careful! This stretch of land has been made infamous by the blockbuster, Forrest Gump, and the view of miles-long highway with Monument Valley in the distance is a photo worthy to be hung on your wall.

    Just there last week. I took my daughter outside back of the View hotel to see if we could see in the middle of the night. She freaked out because you can barely make out the giant butte next to the hotel. It’s like you can feel its giant presences.

      I highly recommend Clipper boats ( Uber boat ) & get Oyster cards ! I highly recommend recommend cream tea at the Ivy's Tower bridge. You can have delicious scones / tea right by the Tower bridge & the view from there of the city with sky scrapers with the Tower bridge is AMAZING !!! You can take lots of memorable ,gorgeous photos there !! I highly recommend Devon & Cotswold, too !!!
      I recommend Newport, Wales. There's a little cafe called Cafe at the Ridgeway in Ridgeway ,Newport ,very pretty area & very affordable, very dog friendly, Joe's ice creams bubble gum flavour is so yummy !! They're from Swansea & it's made there ,made in Wales !! St.julian's Inn pub ,Newport is a pub with the most gorgeous view 😍 ,very peaceful. A very laid back holiday spot !! Tenby & Saundersfoot wales are my very favourites !! I am jealous of you going there soon ! I'd love to keep visiting Wales/ England often if I had the money !! Lol Have a safe trip !! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞

    Hello. I really like your video, but a lot of people that have made videos on Monumental Valley forget to mention the entrance of the park. We heard there's a line to get in because they only have 25 cars in there at a time. Is that true? Other than that, great tips on a place to eat and forest Gump Hill parking situation. Thanks.

    • @gotravelwithstaci
      @gotravelwithstaci  Před rokem +1

      Hi Rob! I had made a point to mention any issues we encountered trying to get in, but we ended up not having any trouble getting in to report back. When we visited in April 2022, we didn’t have any lines to wait and and no restrictions to enter the park. Be sure to check out the Navajo website before visiting to note any entrance restrictions changes.

      @spark_6710 Před 6 měsíci

      @gotravelwithstaci I've discovered a method that always works on planes & in deserts !! Chewing gums or drinking hot tea only work sometimes, or shirt time in deserts / planes . On planes, it's never enough ,especially for landing .I had several incidents I felt that my ears were permanently damaged !! But,no more those !! Now I know how to deal with it or even prevent it !!
      I recently visited Arizona ( last late September ) & I didn't get any issues at all !! Yay ! Monument Valley & red rocks were AMAZING !!! I love Arizona. It was my 3rd visit there ,but very 1st time in Sedona / Monument Valley ! Incredible experiences !!

    I heard they are only letting 25 people drive the loop road at a time, how long did you have for wait before being allowed onto the road?

    • @gotravelwithstaci
      @gotravelwithstaci  Před rokem

      We didn’t have to wait at all. We went back in April 2022 and knew they had a limit so we expected to have to wait in a line but nope. They were moderately busy that day, too. I’d say to check the Navajo Nation websites before your trip to see if these regulations have been lifted or not. Hope you have a great trip!

      @@nicolasdrensek1080 Hi Nicolas and welcome! Ooh, I'm not sure about taking the RV through the entire thing, especially if it's a larger RV. I mostly worry about the road being too narrow because it's the same road in and out, so you will need to share it with cars coming in/out.
      You may want to go to their website and see if you can ask about leaving the RV in the parking lot while you drive the loop?

    That taco at 3:00 is on Navajo fry bread rather than a taco shell. It's a staple of local cuisine, very tasty and found just about everywhere in that area. Its only downside is that the bread is deep pan fried in saturated fat. Your arteries will not approve.

      The Navajo community was hit very hard during the pandemic, so I understand their continued concern with being cautious with so many tourists visiting. Also, since this is private land, I don’t mind following whatever rules they want to enforce, similar to my visiting someone’s home.
      That said, I didn’t experience strict mask enforcement when we were out in open air, like it was enforced when we were indoors, such as their gift shop.
