The air in Santa Fe is fabulous and one a 2 seated open air, human powered tricycle this is the only way to go. I stopped by one and struck up a conversation with 71 year old peddle/driver, Pete, by asking if Pedicab was hiring. Great guy, originally from the NYC area and transplanted to Santa Fe only one years ago. His knowledge of the area, rich history, and it's people was most impressive. We talked for roughly 20 minutes and his vim and vigor for life, health, and continued gathering of knowledge was inspiring. Imagine, 71, yes a former biker & runner, but able to a 21 geared tricycle with as much as 350-600 pounds of cargo is jaw dropping.

Once I checked out of my hotel, I needed to kill some time before I got on the Rail Runner train. I had seen a colorful Pedicab earlier when I took the city tour and it looked like fun. So after that tour and a visit to the Crepes Shop nearby, I was feeling pretty good but not like I wanted to hike all the way down to the Santa Fe Depot for the train. That's when I saw a blond guy sitting in a Pedicab parked in Santa Fe Plaza. I asked him how much he charged and it was one dollar per minute, That seemed affordable so I hopped on. Soon we were passing through the beautiful Plaza and on our way through the Railyard District. It was so nice taking in all the sights from an open air carriage. The driver was nice enough to stop while I admired and took pictures of a church with a lovely rose garden. Soon enough, we had arrived at the Depot and the ride was only $12. The driver had used his little step stool to help me get down and forget to take it when he left. So I called the Pedicab office and told them I was leaving his step stool with the Tourist Info office there. The gentleman did come back to fetch his step stool. This company does an excellent job, hire wholesome, honest-looking drivers and give visitors a fresh air way of enjoying the sights. According to their website, they also do "tours of Canyon Road Galleries (many of the drivers are artists), the Railyard District, and tours of nightlife hotspots (some of the drivers specialize in nightlife). Tours can be of any length you choose." Santa Fe Pedicab operates from 9 am to 10 pm seven days a week from May to November. Call for a reservation or ask your concierge to make arrangements. Usually there is a Pedicab somewhere around the Plaza area, which is where I found mine. 5 YELP STARS for environmentally-friendly pedal power in beautiful Santa Fe.

We were sent from their parking spot by the Loretto Chapel to the pickup point across from the La Fonda hotel by a staff member. Being late afternoon, it was very hot, and the fellow in the trolley wasn't engaging with any of us in line on the sidewalk until I spoke up and asked, "Are you boarding yet?" and then he kind of snapped to and started selling us tickets, and we all were able to sit down in the shade. Tickets were $25 per person for a 1.25 hour tour. At first I thought it was just going to be "this building is real Adobe and this one isn't" because there was a lot of that to begin with, but the tour encompassed architecture, history (including some of the grittier aspects), popular culture, and local information. It covered the area around the Plaza as well as Canyon Road and up toward Museum Hill. A worthwhile tour especially if you are needing a break later in the day.

We learned a good bit about the area's history and specialness too. It was $25 per person and our guide Dave was very nice and knowledgeable. Christian, who I believe owns the business (?), is very friendly and directed us to a tour leaving outside La Fonda hotel, because he said there weren't enough people to run twice the number of tours (we intended to take one of the three daily tours outside Loretto Chapel -- but the only ones running at this time are outside La Fonda. So he walked us right over to where the other tour was leaving from and that was very nice and helpful. The only complaint about the tour is they _pack_ that little bus full. Depending on the size of the other people in your row, you might be really squeezed and uncomfortable the whole time. I was wedged at one end for the entire trip, and my whole side and arm are very sore now many hours later. It's a couple narrow steps up to get into the bus (hard to describe -- just trust me!) which is fine for any healthy person with normal mobility but an older person or person with any little challenge with their mobility might struggle! I'm still glad to have taken the tour, but maybe they can break out the second tour bus and not pack us in quite so tightly? Really enjoyable and interesting though!

Led by veteran guide Bob Ackenhausen and local naturalist Terry, the company focuses on delivering insights into the region's unique architecture, diverse culture, history, and natural ecology. I took a friend's suggestions and booked an historical walking tour of the Plaza area of Santa Fe on our first morning here. I've been to Santa Fe several times over the years, but individual touring often doesn't go deep enough as you sometimes walk by something without much thought. Some examples of that during our Santa Fe Footprints tour was Burro Alley, the Spitz Clock, and the Solders Monument. Our guide for our 2 hour deep dive was Terry. We were impressed with his knowledge and insights, and I'm sure Gayle and I will see him again when we return to Santa Fe next year. Other choices may include the Botanical Garden, History Museum, Bandelier, and other "hidden" treasures.

The next two hours were delightful. We learned so much American, Spanish and Mexican history. It was not a lot of walking however there were so many interesting tidbits along his route. Bob is extremely knowledgeable and we totally recommend him. Santa Fe is a wonderful town and thanks to Bob, we'll have wonderful memories!!!

He is a first-class tour guide. He is accommodating and caring but mainly, he has a deep commitment to making sure you have a great experience.

He has a 'flair for the theatrical' but I mean that in the best sense: he wants to make the tour vivid and memorable for you. My wife and I learned much from him.

He has lots of information he could convey, so the more you've pre-researched (though not at all necessary!), the faster he can skip to the really juicy stuff.

Admission is free, as part of the building is a gift shop and the other side is the actual house that you can walk through. What I especially like about the oldest house is seeing the structure and how the building was built. You can actually see the straws that were used in forming the walls with the clay. Where else in the U.S. can you see that? Very unique, so make sure to look up close at the walls. The rooms are small, with furnishings inside the rooms, making it so that you can picture what life was like back in its time. It doesn't take long at all to get through and there's very little information about the history, so I would suggest reading up on your own about it. It's worth a visit if you have time and are in Santa Fe.
