Travel Agent Advisor for Santa Fe Holidays

Sitting in the Sangre de Cristo foothills, Santa Fe is also the capital of New Mexico. It is well known for its Pueblo-style architecture and creative artwork. The city was founded as a Spanish colony in 1610.  Therefore, it offers some interesting sites for history buffs. Winding streets in the city’s historic districts thread past adobe landmarks including the state’s History Museum, located in the Palace of the Governors. If you want to take a Spanish holiday close to home, then, as your travel agent advisor, I recommend a trip to Santa Fe. The city is both charming and engaging. I can take care of all the details of your Santa Fe holiday so you only have to do one thing - thoroughly enjoy your vacation. The oldest city in the U.S., Santa Fe also represents a romantic getaway. For instance, you can enjoy the sunset from the rooftop Bell Tower Bar or wander along the one-half mile tree-canopied Canyon Road. You might also consider a spa vacation at Ten Thousand Waves, a Japanese styled bathhouse that features private outdoor baths among stands of evergreens. Indeed I can plan a unique getaway on a Santa Fe holiday, depending on what type of escape you’re seeking. Santa Fe, New Mexico is a cultural hub known for its unique blend of Native American, Mexican, and Spanish influences. For visitors, this means there are plenty of things to see and do, from exploring historic sites to sampling delicious local cuisine.  First up, let's talk about the attractions. Santa Fe is home to several museums and historic sites that offer a glimpse into the area's rich cultural heritage. As noted, the Palace of the Governors, for example, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of the American Southwest.  This historic building was built in the early 1600s and served as the seat of the Spanish government in New Mexico for centuries. Today, it houses the New Mexico History Museum, which offers exhibits and interactive displays that explore the region's past. Another top attraction in Santa Fe is the Santa Fe Opera. This world-renowned opera company performs in a stunning open-air theater that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.  And with productions ranging from classics like Aida to contemporary masterpieces like Cold Mountain, there's something for everyone to appreciate at the Santa Fe Opera. Below are more top attractions and activities you’ll want to include on your itinerary. 1. Visit the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Dedicated to the life and work of one of America's most celebrated artists, the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum showcases an impressive collection spanning her entire career. Here, you can immerse yourself in O'Keeffe's visionary artistry, explore her intriguing life story, and admire her breathtaking paintings of flowers, landscapes, and other subjects. 2 Take a Guided Tour at Palace of the Governors Constructed in the early 17th century as Spain's seat of government for its colonial territories, the Palace of the Governors, as noted, is now a vibrant history museum that encapsulates centuries of New Mexico's past. Join one of their informative guided tours to learn fascinating stories about this landmark building and its role in shaping Santa Fe's heritage. 3. Shop at the Santa Fe Farmers Market Held every Saturday and Tuesday. It's the perfect place to pick up unique souvenirs, sample delicious regional cuisine, and engage with local farmers while supporting their small businesses. Indeed, Santa Fe blends the charm of its historical roots with modern amenities to create an idyllic travel destination that will leave you spellbound. By including these top attractions in your itinerary, you can enjoy one captivating adventure. Food and Drink Choices Of course, no trip to Santa Fe would be complete without sampling some of the local cuisine. The city is known for its unique blend of Native American, Mexican, and Spanish flavors, and there are plenty of restaurants and cafes where visitors can try these delicious dishes for themselves. One must-try dish is the green chile stew, which is a staple of New Mexican cuisine. This hearty stew is made with tender chunks of pork, potatoes, and of course, plenty of spicy green chiles.  Another local favorite is the breakfast burrito, which is often filled with eggs, cheese, bacon or sausage, as well as green or red chile sauce. Enjoy a Margherita Finally, no trip to Santa Fe would be complete without sampling some of the city's famous margaritas. Made with fresh lime juice, tequila, and Cointreau or triple sec, these delicious cocktails are the perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day. Overall, Santa Fe offers a unique blend of cultural attractions and delicious cuisine that visitors won't want to miss. Whether you're a history buff, a foodie, or just looking for a beautiful place to explore, Santa Fe is sure to delight. Contact me today. As your Santa Fe travel agent advisor, I look forward to planning the ideal vacation.

Great Trip to ABQ & the scenic Enchanted Circ
Trenton was great! He handled our recent stay in Albuquerque & we had an amazing time in Old Town. Then we took a scenic drive on the Enchanted Circle from Santa Fe, Taos, Angel Fire & Eagles Nest up to Raton.
