“Mind Blowing” “The absolute best tour we've ever taken and we travel the world” “Great way to start the day and visit to Santa Fe” This performance and experience NOT to be missed and an absolute must do tour to not only get one of the most in-depth understanding of Santa Fe, the surrounding area, and the state of New Mexico at large.

This tour is well-worth taking. Our tour guide, Victor, had tremendous knowledge of Santa Fe's history and culture, as well as an obvious pride in his people and his home, that was contagious. He delved deeply into interesting anecdotes and full stories of the lore of the area, that gave us a deep appreciation for the town that we were visiting (Santa Fe). He even extended our tour by an hour, without hesitation, in order to share more places/stories with us. Victor is a pro; and we highly recommend this tour!
