We have a train now !. The Railrunner Express runs between Belen, NM and Santa Fe. There is a shuttle to and from the airport in Albuquerque. It’s so great to take in all the beautiful scenery and not have to drive.

Lived in Santa Fe a number of years ago ans it still holds a treasured place in my heart. Your guide was quite complete, covering all the cool spots for shopping, eating and curiosities. I collect rubber stamps. There is the coolest stamp store located near the Plaza and the downtown Starbucks, Guadalupe’s Rubber Stamps. (They also have a website.) Lots of SW /Mexican themed stamps. Check it out!

Thanks for the guide. I grew up in Albuquerque and spent lots of time in Santa Fe–this write-up encapsulates the city well.

I just finished writing a guide of my own on New Mexico which explains the significance, origin and history of its foods, crafts, architecture, and general personality. You can check it out at http://www.eyemusebooks.com/books.html!

I would like to add that Santa Fe’s Folk Art Museum houses a wonderful collection of toys collected by none other than Alexander Girard and his wife on their travels around the world. It is truly sublime and one thing I go back to visit each and every time I’m in Santa Fe. Great guide!

Wow. Reallly appreciate your guide suggestions. Would just add that an even more comphrehensive sweep of the area would be to begin and spend a day at Old Town Albquerque, and next morning take the beautiful scenic highway to Sante Fe stopping to visit the Pueblo on the way hopefully during a seasonal native festival and on up the highway to the little terra cotta landscape shop to pick up a quintessential clay sun piece on the way and then on to Sante Fe. Follow this up next day with a drive up the same highway to Taos and spending the day in their city center. Old Town, Sante Fe, and Taos can be done with ease in three days and all along the same beautiful scenic highway that runs from Old Town to Taos. I’m keeping your guide. Sante Fe is outstanding and I hope it never changes. Thanks! B.

Hi Lisa,

Thanks for a comprehensive review of our great city. The info you gathered is really is among the best and most up to date I’ve seen, and I search the web for a living. Thanks for the props on the Design Warehouse site (we built that). Another site that locals and guests might want to check out is Santa Fe Lunch http://www.santafelunch.com. We painstakingly went around to almost all the restaurants in Santa Fe and added their menus. So, if anyone ever wonders where to eat-check it out. You can post restaurant reviews too. Thanks!
