Walk the Native Path
We are a Native-owned tour company in Santa Fe, NM. Our tours offer something rarely found: a Native perspective.
As we guide you through the historic heart of downtown Santa Fe, we share stories threaded with memory, meaning, and presence—revealing a deeper narrative that mainstream tours often overlook.
“Native Santa Fe” - a guided group walking tour of history and culture.
Step into a story that’s been unfolding for thousands of years. This isn’t your average walking tour—it’s a journey through history, culture, and truth, led by a local Native voice rooted in the land. Together, we explore where cultures clashed, mingled, and left behind echoes that still speak today.
As we walk through downtown Santa Fe, we’ll explore vibrant art, layered architecture, and the deeper roots behind local cuisine—how it came to be and what it says about survival, adaptation, and cultural blending.
Highlights:
San Miguel Chapel
Plaza
Barrio de Analco

Exploring Santa Fe means feeling the stories held in the land itself. From the curve of ancient mountains to the scent of piñon on the breeze, our guides reveal how this place was shaped over millions of years—and how its beauty called ancestors here long ago. The cultures that have lived and continue to live here have each left their mark, creating the vibrant, layered Santa Fe you experience today.

Many Native people are shaped by a blend of traditions and modern life. Some are raised away from their traditional territory/reservations by parents influenced by assimilation-era policies like boarding schools, their lives reflect both cultural survival and adaptation. This perspective brings valuable insight into the complexities of Native identity in contemporary settings such as Santa Fe.
-
As you can see, we center the Native voice—offering a perspective that’s too often left out of the story. With a Native guide, you’ll experience Santa Fe through the eyes of those who have seen its beauty, its challenges, and the many changes that have shaped it over time. It’s a deeper, more honest understanding of a place built by many, but rooted in Indigenous presence.

Our group tours are small, no more than 6 people. This allows more opportunity to have connection and conversation with your Native guide.
