Founded in 1610 by Spanish conquistador Don Pedro de Peralta on the ancient Tewa site of O’Ga P’Ogeh, or "White Shell Water Place," Santa Fe is the oldest U.S. capital and the oldest European community west of the Mississippi. Originating from Pueblo villages established between 1050 and 1150, the city evolved through Spanish, Mexican, and American governance. Today, Santa Fe celebrates its Indigenous heritage, vibrant art scene, progressive environmental policies, and a deep commitment to preserving local traditions. Uncover the rich history of Native American and Spanish cultures on your custom Santa Fe private tour.

The heart of Santa Fe carries an enchanting architectural signature, highlighted by the city’s historic gem, the Palace of the Governors, the oldest public building in America. The city's aesthetic is described as Pueblo Revival Style, rooted in the adobe (sun-dried mud brick) constructions of the ancient Pueblo Indians. Sturdy, simplistic, and subtly majestic, these earthy-toned, rounded buildings earn Santa Fe the nickname "The City Different," infusing an old-world charm that distinguishes it from other cosmopolitan cities. Admire the iconic adobe buildings and unique designs on a bespoke Santa Fe private tour.

Santa Fe embodies a rich, multicultural lifestyle shaped by nature, creativity, and tradition. Santa Feans embrace every season, from winter snowshoeing to spring hiking to free shows at the Plaza, while events like the International Folk Art Market and the Indian Market celebrate the city’s vibrant community. Experience the innovation of Meow Wolf’s House of Eternal Return, sip craft brews from Santa Fe Brewing, and discover the magic of Native artistry along Canyon Road where over 100 galleries preserve cultural traditions that remain central to generational life.

Santa Fe maintains a culinary scene as vibrant as its personality. Here, gastronomy is an art, incorporating an array of global influences while honoring New Mexican culinary traditions. The “Three Sisters”—corn, beans, and squash—augment the star of the palette, the New Mexican chile, cornerstone of dishes like tamales, enchiladas, beans, posole, chile rellenos, and carne adovada. From more than 400 restaurants, dining choices abound, from chic roadside food trucks to grand establishments like the historic Shed restaurant, Santa Fe offers something for every food connoisseur.
