EXPERIENCE NAVAJO CULTURE
For decades the Crownpoint Rug Auction has taken place on the second Friday of every month.
The Navajo Nation has loosened some restrictions regarding visitation however, since the auction attracts such a large crowd, it will return only when it is safe to have people gather in large numbers.
Please contact us if you would like us to contact you when we are able to safely run this tour.
This description will apply when the auction begins to run again : this tour is presently on hold
Join us for an overnight experience like no other. Depart from Albuquerque on Friday afternoon to attend the legendary Crownpoint Rug Auction on the Navajo reservation. The auction is a genuine Navajo event featuring contemporary, handmade all wool Navajo rugs. We arrive in Crownpoint early enough to preview the rugs and meet the weavers, followed by the lively auction. Saturday we visit an historic hotel and a trading post located on the famous Route 66 in Gallup NM. Then it’s on to the capitol of the Navajo Nation, Window Rock, AZ. This tour is about cultural immersion into one of country’s most intact tribes. Let our professional driver and guide lead the way.
