Santa Fe's one and only taxi company JUST closed their Cab Doors for any business. The is Pedicab's moment! Yes, you can get an Uber, but even with that, WHY? 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. Remember, when you accept a ride, please, generously tip these bubbly tourist driven enthusiasts. read more

I always see the Pedicabs in downtown San Diego riding around but had never once bothered to ride one. Well, I crossed that off my bucket list, while recently in Santa Fe, N.M. 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. read more

Fred was great!! He took my grand daughter and I to the train station. He was awesome!

Great tour for my out of town guest (especially with the altitude issues). They go all over downtown Santa Fe and all the way up Canyon Road for $1 a minute for AS LONG AS YOU WANT. We had a architectural / churches tour with Megan (the 2nd most photographed person on the Santa Fe Plaza) ... she knows all about outdoor and extreme sports locations in New Mexico too! read more

On a recent vacation to New Mexico which included the Indian Market in Santa Fe, at the suggestion of our hotel (Inn of the Governors), we called Santa Fe Pedicab for a visit to Canyon Road. What a great experience!! Tracy, our driver was kind, informative, charming, fun and accommodating...what more can you ask for? Many of the drivers are artists themselves. We jumped on and off at many of the galleries. Tracy shared valuable insights not only for Canyon Road, but answered our questions regarding Santa Fe and surroundings. When I called to reserve the service, he was at our hotel within a 1/2 hour...fantastic!! We will always appreciate his showing us sights around the area not on the beaten path and also for suggesting we visit the outdoor garden at the Nedra Matteucci gallery....beautiful...a must see!!!! I highly recommend Santa Fe Pedicab. What a great way to view magical Santa Fe...can't wait to revisit soon. read more
