Discover Santa Fe Driving Tour

Jerard truly knows how to show off Santa Fe. He's a genuine local whose family has been in New Mexico for generations, and that deep connection comes through in every tour. Guests rave about his storytelling ability, the way he weaves together indigenous, Spanish, and Mexican history into something engaging rather than dry. The food and drink stops aren't skimpy tastings either – expect full plates and real margaritas at carefully chosen spots like Coyote Cafe's rooftop. The tours strike that sweet balance of being educational without feeling like a lecture. What makes these experiences stand out is the personalized attention and genuine local insight. Beyond the main Plaza walking tours, they also offer custom experiences like trips to Chimayó for golden hour, winery tours through northern New Mexico, and even pottery-making sessions. The pacing feels relaxed and conversational, with guides (including Paul, who shares ghost stories and Oppenheimer connections) treating guests like friends rather than a crowd to hustle through checkpoints. Tours typically run 3-3.5 hours, and many travelers recommend booking early in your visit to get oriented and gather recommendations for the rest of your stay.
