5.00Our guide Rob was knowledgeable, efficient, and a pleasure to tour around with. He also was super accommodating to what we wanted to do- be it spend more time at one location or another, take a break to grab something to eat or drink, or tailor the experience to our individual interests. Highly recommend..

5.00This was my first tour during my first visit to Santa Fe. I chose the best of the best in a number of ways. My tour guide, Lorraine, is not only knowledgeable but makes everything so easy to understand. It is obvious she loves Santa Fe and is one of its best advocates. I am not a history buff, but Lorraine made the historical aspects of the tour intriguing and colorful. I would highly recommend this tour, and if you are fortunate enough to have Lorraine as your guide, you have the best.
Disappointed

5.00This tour was wonderful. Miguel was our guide and we can’t say enough good things about him. His in depth knowledge of history added a richness to everything we saw. He was very professional, enthusiastic, and endlessly energetic. He has a great sense of humor and a specialty in using sounds he makes to set the stage in history. This tour is great for people of all ages.
