Santa Fe Opera and Walking Tour

Santa Fe Opera and Walking Tour Overview

This 13-day tour (9 – 21 Aug ’25) allows you to experience the landscapes that inspired ‘America’s Artist’ Georgia O’Keeffe and to see opera in the memorable Santa Fe opera theatre (Verdi’s Rigoletto and Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro). There will be time for walks in river canyons and through forests of aspen, Ponderosa pine and Douglas fir.

Join us as we take you to the Land of Enchantment. Experience the landscapes that inspired Georgia O’Keeffe, rightly dubbed ‘America’s artist’. Visit the locations of her iconic works and walk through the studio that provided the settings for her major paintings.

See opera as you never have in the covered, but open, Santa Fe opera. We will attend Verdi’s Rigoletto and Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro. If we are lucky, the vistas of New Mexico will produce complimentary sunsets or even sturm and drang thunder and lightning.

There will be time for optional walks along the Rio Grande and in canyons roamed by the folklore cowboys of the Wild West with a gentle climb to a lake at 11,000 feet. Summer temperatures are moderated by high altitude and a lack of humidity. New Mexican food will be accompanied by great U.S. wines and a stay overlooking an archetypical Mid-Western square in Las Vegas – no, not that Las Vegas!
