Blue Edge Journeys
Walk the Native Path
Walk the Native Path with Blue Edge Journeys to experience Santa Fe’s layered history with the Native story at it’s heart.
As a Native-owned tour company, we guide you through the historic heart of downtown with a story that’s been part of Santa Fe long before it was called Santa Fe.
“Native Santa Fe” - a guided group walking tour of history and culture.
Step into a story that has been unfolding for thousands of years.
Santa Fe is often told through its Spanish, Mexican, and American chapters. However, long before and throughout, this has always been Native land.
On this walking tour, a local Native guide brings the city’s layered history to life, connecting landmarks, art, architecture, and cuisine to the enduring and living presence of Native peoples.
Together, we explore how cultures mingled, adapted, and left echoes that still shape the spirit of Santa Fe today, showing that Native people and culture remain a vibrant, essential part of the city’s identity.

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. 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.
-
Looking through a Native lens invites us to hear stories that are often left out, adding depth and richness to Santa Fe’s history. These perspectives don’t replace the familiar story but expand it, helping us see the city in a more connected and meaningful way.
-
As you can see, we center the Native voice. 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.
