Tour Guides

The Hopi occupy an area of approximately 2,439 square miles in northeastern Arizona at an elevation of 5,800-6,000 feet.  The Hopi people live in 12 villages located in four regions referred to as First Mesa, Second Mesa, and Third Mesa.  While language custom and tradition are similar, each region has features that are unique from other regions.  Traveling across Hopi is easy – simply follow Arizona State highway 264 which connects the Upper Village of Moenkopi at the western gateway with the other villages on First, Second, and Third Mesas.  You will travel through some of the most open and pristine land in the American west. Tourists are welcome to visit the Hopi villages independently but the very best way to tour Hopi for the first time is with a tour guide who is certified by the Hopi Tribe. 

The Hopi Certified Guides are exceptionally knowledgeable about the traditions and culture of the Hopi.  Authorized Hopi Guides know basket makers, silversmiths, carvers, painters, potters, and weavers who will invite you into their home workshops. The Hopi villages are living villages – the original homes are still intact and have been continuously occupied for centuries. When visitors enter the villages they are entering into the current lifestyle of the people in the villages, and out of respect for this close proximity to the residents’ personal lives, certain restrictions are requested of visitors - prohibited are: photography, sketching, videotaping, and audio recording of the village or landscapes, wandering near shrines or kivas, picking up loose feathers, hiking , climbing and exploring in non-designated areas, alcohol, drugs, and carrying of firearms. Some social ceremonies are open to the public.  Visitors are asked to show respect by dressing appropriately when attending ceremonies.

You can be assured that the art you find on your visit to the Hopi mesas will be authentic and will be some of the most beautiful Native American art you have ever seen!

Micah Loma'omvaya

Micah Loma'omvaya, Hopi anthropologist/archaeologist, has created an accessible venue for sharing Hopi culture and knowledge about the Ancestral Pueblo traditions related to many of the Four Corners region's ruins and monuments. Micah's tour services are offered through various alternatives to suit your custom needs and selected activities.

My focus is to provide my guests with a unique perspective on the Hopi relationships to the ancestral places and traditions of the Hisat.Sinom, our Ancient Ancestors. My personal experiences in the Hopi culture and environment is blended with my education in cultural and natural resources management (archaeology, ethnobiology, linguistics, etc.) to give you an understanding of the lifeways of the prehistoric people who have converged to our modern Hopi villages and communities.

Tours of the Hopi mesas and villages provide visitors with a modern day look at Pueblo Indian life, foods, language, farming, arts and culture which we carry on to this day. As we have encountered various explorers and visitors to the Southwest, including the Spanish Conquistadores in circa 1540 A.D., we have shared our respect for the land, history and its essence.
