🎈 Special Balloon Fiesta Walking Tours – October 2025

October in Albuquerque means balloons in the sky, chile in the air, and history on foot! During Balloon Fiesta weekends, I’ll be leading free walking tours downtown on Saturdays and at the Rail Yards on Sundays.

Saturdays – Downtown Architecture Tour

• 🗓 October 4 – RSVP here

• 🗓 October 11 – RSVP here

• ⏰ 10:00 AM • About 1 hour

Sundays – Rail Yards Walking Tour

• 🗓 October 5 – RSVP here

• 🗓 October 12 – RSVP here

• ⏰ 11:00 AM • About 45 minutes

Tours are free and open to all. RSVPs are encouraged so I know who to expect. Walk-ups are welcome, but tours may be canceled if no one registers in advance.

How Tours Will Work This Season:

Rather than a fixed monthly schedule, tours will be offered on a flexible, ad hoc basis throughout the 2025 season.
New dates will be announced at least one week in advance.
Thank you for your enthusiasm and support. I can’t wait to walk Albuquerque’s streets and share its stories with you this year!
