Itinerary for Sante fe for nine days
 
What would you recommend I do for nine days in Santa Fe? Is using Santa Fe as a home base a smart move? Should we stay in different locations for a few days each place? <BR> <BR>Thanks

You picked the destination, right? <BR>Why, then, did you select Santa Fe? <BR>You must have had some notion of what's out there. <BR>What is it that you want out of this trip? What do you enjoy? Provide a few clues! <BR> <BR>It will do no good for someone to recommend hiking trips if you hate exercise or are wheelchair bound. <BR>And the Inn of the Anasazi and the best restaurants won't be good suggestions if you're on a tight budget. <BR>A little background? <BR>

Having just been to that area recently, I would stay 3 days each in Taos, Santa Fe then Albuquerque.

I think it also depends on how much you like to stay put on a vacation or bounce around. Most people seem to like santa fe and taos better than albuquerque--if you are interested in the outdoors and/or indians, you might think about monument valley/four corners area--it's probably a 3 hour drive

irene, <BR> <BR>I highly recommend that you do a search of this site (US), as there have been many informative posts on Sante Fe and Taos over the past several months. <BR> <BR>I think Sante Fe is the perfect base for a 9 day exploration of the area. My wife and I split a week between Sante Fe and Taos several years ago, and we loved it. Driving in that area is wonderful (as far as scenary, ease of travel)--at least it was in early October when we were there. <BR> <BR>Have a great time!
