Why go on a New Mexico tour?
Rightly regarded as the “Land of Enchantment,” New Mexico offers a nice union of prehistoric attractions and natural amenities. Go to Santa Fe and see remnants of nearly four centuries of Spanish and Mexican rule. Explore the spectacular Sangre de Cristo Mountains, which is just outside of town and immerse yourself in even more history through memories of Indian bands, French explorers, and Spanish troops. Spend some time in the magical city of Albuquerque. Join their annual extravaganza of hot air ballooning and experience the beauty of being part of one of the world’s most photographed events. For a cultural and relaxing experience, drive through the South Valley. It is lined with dozens of bakeries, ice cream stores and little shops – perfect for travellers craving for an authentic Mexican experience. During your New Mexico tour, also make sure to visit the contrasting beauties of the Bandera Volcano and the Ice Cave. The trail to the Bandera Volcano winds around natural landmarks and offers a breathtaking view of inside the caldera and an elevated view of the rugged lava flow, while the Ice Cave – located in a section of collapsed lava tube - features the beautiful and natural ice formation that started over 3,000 years ago.
