Miguel was a fantastic guide! Well worth the money! - Miguel was excellent at making history come to life; painting a mental picture to keep the listener remain mentally engaged. He gave us a brief historical chronology of Santa Fe and the surrounding area of New Mexico. He was interesting, informative and had an engaging personality. He was very thoughtful about providing places to sit down, and taking bathroom breaks. The only recommendation I have would be for Trip Advisor to recommend people take along a bottle of water to drink while walking outside.

We absolutely loved this... - We absolutely loved this tour, thanks to our fantastic guide, Christian! His knowledge of history not only of the area, but the world, was incredible. He was a fantastic storyteller! I appreciated Christians patience with our group as we had a few slow walkers (75 and 81 😉), adjusting the tour to fit our needs without missing a beat. Thank you!!

Great tour! - We thoroughly enjoyed meeting Lorraine. We felt like a friend was taking us around the beautiful city of Santa Fe. Her life and travel experiences only helped to enhance our tour. We enjoyed listening and learning about Sante Fe and New Mexico history from her. She was very knowledgeable and was a food tour guide as well so she pointed out to us many great places to eat and be entertained in the city! This was a perfect way to get to know the city when you have little time. We wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy all Lorraine showed us but seeing the highlights was perfect!

The Tour of Downtown Santa Fe was Delightful - Our guide Miguel was outstanding, entertaining and a wonderful historian. There were a couple of snafus, however. The date of our tour was incorrect when we received the final confirmation with the name of our guide and meeting place. The dates of the Georgia O'Keefe Museum were also incorrect but a phone call was made prior and the vouchers were honored. Considering the high price of the tour, I was surprised that we had to pay an entry fee to tour one of the sites. Unfortunately I can't remember whether it was the Oldest House or the Loretto Chapel with the staircase.
