It was a good tour although the app seemed to not know where we were at one point. Some of the explanations were a bit too long.

This was a nice way to visit old town. Lots of history and stories that made the time more valuable than just walking through. We could imagine how life might have been three hundred years ago!

I loved the tour, it was fun and informative. It required a decent amount of walking on mostly level surfaces. Our tour guide also threw in a few jump scares for the teenagers. He was very knowledgable and personable. I would highly recommend this tour.

Such a great way to tour old town ABQ on our pace and timing. VERY well done! Instructions were clear and easy. I’d recommend it to anyone.

We didn't take a tour, but I wish we would have! Our time in Old Town Albuquerque was wonderful. The shops are full of high quality art, clothing, jewelry, outdoor wear, etc. The staff were friendly and the owners of a photo gallery spent time sharing their knowledge. So many tourist oriented places are full of cheap souvenirs - not old town! We loved being outdoors amid the historic architecture. We were there on Halloween near Mexcio's Day of the Dead holiday. There were neat alters and some related activities too.

Smartphone tour is a great idea. However, I’m unable to follow maps (get lost in the mall). I still highly recommend this tour, besides, it was only $6 so you can’t go wrong.

They are not flexible with the booking. My vacation flows. I attempted to access my audio tour the day before I booked it. But was denied based on policy. It’s an audio file… what kind of policy is that.

HeatherL_B

Walk was pleasant and informative. We had a little difficult with following the directions towards the end and map could have been labeled better.

Pamela M

The tour helped us to find interesting places along the way that we would have missed otherwise. There were little nooks on Old Town with cool little shops that were unique and fun to find. Overall we truly enjoyed our walk about in Old Town Albuquerque.
