Monday, August 23 – Santa Fe
This morning starts with a locally guided walking tour of Santa Fe’s Plaza, the historic heart of the city and gathering place for Santa Fe’ans for nearly 400 years. As you amble through the Plaza, enjoy stops at some of the city’s landmark sites like the Santa Fe Indian Market, Palace of the Governors and Palace Avenue. Later, embark on an open-air tram tour of Santa Fe and learn more about the history, architecture, and art of the oldest capital city in North America. Continue on with a visit to the Loretto Chapel, a former Roman Catholic church turned wedding chapel and museum. Here, you’ll find the “miraculous staircase,” a structure with origins as legendary as its spiral shape. This evening, venture out with others as there are many dining options in and around this historic area. (B)
Tuesday, August 24 – Santa Fe – Madrid – Santa Fe
Today, travel the scenic Turquoise Trail to the village of Madrid, a charming hamlet stitched into the landscape of the Ortiz Mountains. Once a major coal-mining town, the village is now revered for its thriving artistic community. Then, visit the Allan Houser Sculpture Garden to view 80 works by the prolific artist who’s been lauded as one of the most renowned Native American painters and Modernist sculptors of the 20th century. This evening is free to enjoy the amazing dining options Santa Fe is known for. (B, L)

On a guided elective walk, you’ll have the opportunity to discover more of the park’s ancient ruins and thriving wildlife. Afterwards, savor an authentic New Mexican lunch before visiting the city of Los Alamos. It was here the Atomic Bomb was designed and tested as part of the Manhattan Project of the 1940’s. This project brought many Jewish scientists to the area at that time. We will have time to visit the Bradbury Museum while there. Return to Santa Fe where the evening is free to explore the many artists along Canyon Road, visiting the Georgia O’Keefe Museum or walking around the historic plaza. (B, L)
