4If you like art galleries and art history you will be happy
It was a fine tour but not exceptional. Our guide was young but fairly knowledgeable. Our first stop was not expecting us and wouldn't let us in. And I would love the tour to add other types of artists besides painting. There was one weaver included. Leather goods, wood working, pottery, music and would add some interest.
5Fall in Love With Taos!
Our first time in Taos, and I cannot imagine a better introduction to this truly amazing and unique locale. We came for the chocolate (which was beyond delicious) but were absolutely won over and blown away by the art, culture, and history! Every stop was well chosen and deeply informative. Our guides (Michelle and Gabby) were so knowledgeable and personable and helped make this tour one of a kind (in the best possible way). Already can’t wait to get back to Taos!
5Linda was a gem, we learned so much and had an amazing trip
Linda was an amazing tour guide and so incredibly knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. My entire group shared how much they enjoyed getting to know her, hearing so many great pieces of history and facts from her and having her guide us through the beautiful tour and experience. Highly highly recommend!
5Loved touring Taos with Linda
Our group of 8 women, all first timers in Taos, had a magical and very informative tour with Linda! She was a delight to be around, shared insightful knowledge about New Mexico’s landscape and history and kept us on track. We would absolutely recommend her tour to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and fun guide.
5Heritage Inspirations Chaco Canyon Day Tour
Re: Full Day Tour to Chaco Canyon from Albuquerque. If you are thinking about signing up for this tour, do it! Chaco Canyon is a long way from Albuquerque and it was a pleasure to be driven there and back. Tam - the guide and driver - is very knowledgeable about Chaco Canyon and all things related. A truly enjoyable and educational day!

Taos Pueblo, a multi-storey adobe village of the Tiwa people, is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the United States.
