Fantastic Architectural Tour - Santa Fe

Our guide, Edward shared so much history on Santa Fe history and architecture which made this tour an amazing experience. Ending the tour at a winery allowed us to meet and enjoy the company of our group. I highly recommend this tour! Lots of walking involved and the streets/sidewalks of Santa Fe can be uneven so if you have limitations this tour might be a challenge.
Great introduction into Santa Fe, its people and culture.

Great overview of the histories and cultures that converged to create the distinctive architecture and experience that Santa Fe is today. Sandy is a complete delight and extremely educational. A real treat!
Well worth it.

Our tour with Sandy was absolutely amazing! We have been traveling to Santa Fe for 30 years and had never done a tour of the city. This tour provided an immense amount of history and information on the architecture that truly makes this city what it is. We have taken tours all over the world and the tour that Sandy provided was top notch. Highly recommend!
Response from Host , Mar 2022
What an extraordinary review that warms our hearts to read about how this tour enriched your Santa Fe experience after your 30 years of travel here! What a treasure to inspire others to start their exploration of the City Different on our Santa Fe & Architectural & Interiors Walking Tour! We are absolutely grateful you traveled with us!
Five Star Architectural Walking Tour - Highly Recommended

Sandy's architectural tour is such a welcome treat. She is an extremely knowledgeable, insightful and animated storyteller. You will walk away from her tour with so many a-ha! moments and a fun historic download of New Mexico. The tour fee is definitely worth every penny. Plus, Sandy unselfishly offers up her time to answer any questions from participants even after the tour ends. The free wine tasting is also an added bonus. If you could do only one Santa Fe tour book the architectural walking tour. You won't regret it.
Sandy’s Excellent Tour!!!!

Perfect tour!

Learning so much of the history of Santa Fe. Tour guide Sandy was outstanding! The history lessons about DeVargas street, the social divide between north and south of the river, and the different architectural elements all were new knowledge.
Great Tour with Sandy

Our tour with Sandy was really great. We learned some history that we would have never known if we had not taken the tour. We saw lots of interesting places. It was great and we highly recommend it.
An amazing journey

We had a wonderful experience with our travel guide because she had great knowledge of the history here in Santa Fe. She shared with us how the community started and how different cultures help one another.I found this to be wonderful knowledge that not everyone would possess. And knowledge of Santa Fe, the indigenous people, and many other interesting aspect which are too many to list.
Fascinating Walk through History

All of us enjoyed an informative and fascinating tour, even a couple long time Santa Feans. Sandy was able to answer all questions and provided a wealth of information.
Introducing Santa Fe

Sandy led an informative tour that featured architectural examples and details, historical facts, art and sculpture while balancing walking and resting in shady spots. Her energy and enthusiasm is contagious. The group gathered for a wine tasting and the conversation was almost as exciting as the tour. This was a fun way to meet Santa Fe!
Architecture in context.

Excellent presentation with historical knowledge that put the architecture of the city in context. Interesting choices to view the different styles of architecture and design.
Santa Fe, New Mexico.

There is so much history in Santa Fe, let alone New Mexico. I would say it is critical to have this type of tour for a comprehensive understanding of the area and it’s history. It really was a 10 out of 10 tour. Can’t recommend it highly enough.Santa Fe, New Mexico. Our guide was an author on the subject and it actually ended with a wine tasting.A Surprisingly good wine tasting.
Meaningful tour

The tour was full of great information about history, buildings, Native Americans, and art. The guides were terrific. When I booked the tour, the voucher said that the tour started at the St. Francis Hotel. I tried calling the Viator phone number when the tour started and was put on hold. The guide called me to see why I was late as the tour starts at the Loretto. You need to update this information.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
