Barbara obviously loved and took pride in her city's history. She brought it to life by combining historical facts with entertaining stories. Think Billy the Kid trying to hold up a nun in a stagecoach!

We spent 2 hours learning about Albuquerque‘s Old Town history from its settlement into the 21st century. The physical tour focused on the town square and the people who settled and developed the Old Town. Our guide explained the changes in culture and architecture and challenges facing the town through photographs, research and stories handed down through his family members who were among the original settlers. Our guide, PJ, was well prepared and a great story teller. Fascinating tour and great value for anyone who enjoys history with a personal touch.
