There are over 2700 archaeological sites within the many canyons of Canyon De Chelly
National Monument. Only 13 of the 700 standing ruins have been stabilized, re-inforced, or
protected from degradation. We are professional Navajo guides who can teach you the
history of our canyons and about the Anasazi, Hopi and Navajo peoples. We pride ourselves
in offering you more than just viewing our scenery - but we can do this too! Canyon De
Chelly Unimog Tours is an enterprise of Leon Skyhorse Thomas. Every guide is a
professional, certified by the National Park Service by examination. In addition to tours
of the Canyon De Chelly National Monument, cultural consulting needs are addressed on a
case by case basis for those who seek a more intimate insight onto the Navajo Way. Leon
has assisted film-makers on location in Navajoland and is used to delivering high quality
services to the people and organizations he serves.

Daniel Staley, owner of De Chelly Tours, grew up in Canyon De Chelly in a traditional
Navajo environment. His family hogan had no running water or electricity and his bed was a
sheepskin rug on the earthen floor. As a child, he climbed the canyon walls and made clay
toys of its earth. When he grew up, he spent several years working in the construction
business and raising a family of his own. As time went on, Daniel decided it was time to
do more with his life, so he started a hiking tour business into the canyon. There are few
who know the canyon as well as Daniel so it was a natural place to start. Eventually, he
was able to purchase his first jeep which enabled him to now take tourists on jeep tours
into the canyon. From there his business grew. Today Daniel owns 7 jeeps and helps to
employ several of his Navajo neighbors as tour guides. By his example, Daniel hopes to
inspire other Navajos to improve their own lives. Given his own humble beginnings he
encourages, "I want other Navajos to look at me and say, if Daniel Staley can do it,
so can I". Daniel takes great pride in showing visitors this sacred canyon of the
Navajo people, and being the deeply spiritual man that he is, he asks only that all who
visit to please be respectful and treat Canyon De Chelly as the sacred place that it is.

Hiking - Camping - Horseback Trips (inexpensive) into the deep, steep canyons of Arizona's
high desert in and around Canyon de Chelly National Monument and the Navajo Indian
Reservation. We were raised in these canyons, and have been helping visitors here for many
years.We'll guide you to the caves which are filled with spectacular ancient cliff
dwellings of the Anasazi Indians... ancestors of today's Pueblo tribes... We'll take you
to cliffs lined with exotic petroglyphs... artwork etched and painted centuries ago, on
the cliff-walls... perhaps of their spirits and mythology.Within the canyons, you'll see
our Navajo people still farming and herding our sheep and goats. Thrill to see our horses
grazing and running free along the streams in the canyon bottom. Watch our people making
their famous craft work: beaded necklaces, silver jewelry, wool rugs, wood carvings, and
paintings.
