This is a great tour to take when you first arrive in the area because you will leave with many tips and ideas for places to eat, drink, see art, and experience the history of this wonderful city In the following days we revisited several places, including the governors palace, coyote, cafe, and the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. Thank you Jerard, for a wonderful day and an unforgettable experience. It was definitely a highlight of our trip.

Our guide Monique pointed out the topography of the region as well as of all the tribal lands and the history of those tribes. Sante Fe has a rich history and Monique's highlighting of the history was incredibly enriching. Touring with Monique in the Toas area was so wonderful that we felt like we were back in college, we learned so much. When we plan next trip to the Sante Fe, New Mexico we will schedule a tour of the area with Great Southwest Tours and ask for Monique as our guide. Having a knowledgeable guide like Monique will surely make your visit just as memorable.

He was knowledgeable, he took the time to understand our group interests and dynamics, and he came up with a jam-packed, information-rich tour that everyone LOVED, led by four guides that everyone had nothing but glowing reviews for. I couldn't have been happier with Peter, his guides, or the tours they led us on. We all left with a deeper, richer understanding of and appreciation for Santa Fe. Highly recommend.

Our tour was interesting, funny, and interactive. Peter was excellent at managing our large and lively group, and balanced education with entertainment like the pro he is. I was particularly appreciative of the context he provided to us of the historical facts so that we could truly begin to understand Santa Fe's past and present. As a Bostonian, I was ready to fight when he started talking about oldest this and oldest that, and I left his tour far more aware of the huge blind spots my northeastern education left me with, although he started to help me fill them.

We were sent from their parking spot by the Loretto Chapel to the pickup point across from the La Fonda hotel by a staff member. Being late afternoon, it was very hot, and the fellow in the trolley wasn't engaging with any of us in line on the sidewalk until I spoke up and asked, "Are you boarding yet?" and then he kind of snapped to and started selling us tickets, and we all were able to sit down in the shade. Tickets were $25 per person for a 1.25 hour tour. At first I thought it was just going to be "this building is real Adobe and this one isn't" because there was a lot of that to begin with, but the tour encompassed architecture, history (including some of the grittier aspects), popular culture, and local information. It covered the area around the Plaza as well as Canyon Road and up toward Museum Hill. A worthwhile tour especially if you are needing a break later in the day.

This little bus tour (a little over an hour, pointing out sights and history of Santa Fe) was…read morecompletely worth it to us -- we got many idea of where to visit and where to eat. We learned a good bit about the area's history and specialness too. It was $25 per person and our guide Dave was very nice and knowledgeable. Christian, who I believe owns the business (?), is very friendly and directed us to a tour leaving outside La Fonda hotel, because he said there weren't enough people to run twice the number of tours (we intended to take one of the three daily tours outside Loretto Chapel -- but the only ones running at this time are outside La Fonda. So he walked us right over to where the other tour was leaving from and that was very nice and helpful. The only complaint about the tour is they _pack_ that little bus full. Depending on the size of the other people in your row, you might be really squeezed and uncomfortable the whole time. I was wedged at one end for the entire trip, and my whole side and arm are very sore now many hours later. It's a couple narrow steps up to get into the bus (hard to describe -- just trust me!) which is fine for any healthy person with normal mobility but an older person or person with any little challenge with their mobility might struggle! I'm still glad to have taken the tour, but maybe they can break out the second tour bus and not pack us in quite so tightly? Really enjoyable and interesting though!

My husband and I have been on several ghost and haunted history tours across the country, and this was by far the most informative and enjoyable. We had a fantastic time and highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Santa Fe.

He is a first-class tour guide. He is accommodating and caring but mainly, he has a deep commitment to making sure you have a great experience. He has a vast knowledge of the history of Santa Fe and does a terrific job bringing that history to life. He has a 'flair for the theatrical' but I mean that in the best sense: he wants to make the tour vivid and memorable for you. My wife and I learned much from him. I highly recommend Allan and his tour!

I stopped by one and struck up a conversation with 71 year old peddle/driver, Pete, by asking if Pedicab was hiring. Great guy, originally from the NYC area and transplanted to Santa Fe only one years ago. His knowledge of the area, rich history, and it's people was most impressive. We talked for roughly 20 minutes and his vim and vigor for life, health, and continued gathering of knowledge was inspiring. Imagine, 71, yes a former biker & runner, but able to a 21 geared tricycle with as much as 350-600 pounds of cargo is jaw dropping.

Once I checked out of my hotel, I needed to kill some time before I got on the Rail Runner train. I had seen a colorful Pedicab earlier when I took the city tour and it looked like fun. So after that tour and a visit to the Crepes Shop nearby, I was feeling pretty good but not like I wanted to hike all the way down to the Santa Fe Depot for the train. That's when I saw a blond guy sitting in a Pedicab parked in Santa Fe Plaza. I asked him how much he charged and it was one dollar per minute, That seemed affordable so I hopped on. Soon we were passing through the beautiful Plaza and on our way through the Railyard District. It was so nice taking in all the sights from an open air carriage. The driver was nice enough to stop while I admired and took pictures of a church with a lovely rose garden. Soon enough, we had arrived at the Depot and the ride was only $12. The driver had used his little step stool to help me get down and forget to take it when he left. So I called the Pedicab office and told them I was leaving his step stool with the Tourist Info office there. The gentleman did come back to fetch his step stool. This company does an excellent job, hire wholesome, honest-looking drivers and give visitors a fresh air way of enjoying the sights. According to their website, they also do "tours of Canyon Road Galleries (many of the drivers are artists), the Railyard District, and tours of nightlife hotspots (some of the drivers specialize in nightlife). Tours can be of any length you choose." Santa Fe Pedicab operates from 9 am to 10 pm seven days a week from May to November. Call for a reservation or ask your concierge to make arrangements. Usually there is a Pedicab somewhere around the Plaza area, which is where I found mine. 5 YELP STARS for environmentally-friendly pedal power in beautiful Santa Fe.
