Please please skip meteor crater. It is totally not worth the drive or the money. It is privately owned now and due to insurance company regulations, you can only stand on a viewing platform with others and take a gander at it. It is a painful drive out there and way overpriced. Forget it.

sounds like a plan. May I know why you would go to Flagstaff and Sedone between days you went to Grand Canyon instead of spending 2-3 days visiting Grand Canyon and move on to other places? Do you need 1 full day when going to Monument Valley? Thanks!
