Albuquerque old town in a day

Barbra was soo knowledgeable, friendly & didn’t rush. Great tour pace!! All tour guides should use a Mike like she does. Thanks for a wonderful day
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Thank you Jeffery for joining us on our High Noon History Tour and for leaving a great review! All our guides love to share their knowledge of this historical area with all of our Guests. We find that using microphones and amps is the best way to ensure that everyone can hear our wonderful guides. We are delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful experience! We hope you found your trip to Old Town Enchanting!

Thr history and stories of the early setlers especially interesting was the story about Billy the Kid and the nun.
History not legends and lore

Barbara was very knowledgeable about the history of Albuquerque and we learnt a lot, but the legends and lore part of the tour title were notable by their absence. We did really enjoy the Billy the Kid anecdote and would have liked more of those stories.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Thanks for joining us, Thomas, & for posting your review. We're glad that you learned a lot & that you found our Guide very knowledgeable. The Public History Tour you attended was jam packed with 316 years of History, and over 13 historic locations, in just 90-minutes. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the Billy the Kid Story but are sorry that you didn't get as many stories as you wanted. We take your satisfaction & feedback quite seriously! Our Public Tours are designed to give Guests a thorough & accurate overview of the Founding of Old Town Albuquerque. Perhaps a Private Tour, that is able to focus on your specific areas of interest, would be a better fit? Private Tours may be customized to fit YOUR interests. More time could be spent just telling you the amazing stories, or whatever you want to focus on: Art - Architecture - Shopping - Culinary and more. We hope your visit to Old Town was Enchanting!

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!

Very informative! A great way to lean about the history of Old Town. I wouldn't recommend for pre-school age children as they would tend to get board. Julie did a great job!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
