Top Albuquerque Archaeology Tours

Albuquerque is world renowned for its hot air balloon festival. Most visitors only watch balloons from the ground but this tour offers the chance to soar into the air yourself. Watch the sun rise as you fly over the Sandia Mountains and toast the experience with a glass of bubbly. Note that the weight restriction for passengers is up to 275 pounds.

Watch daylight appear above the Rio Grande Valley during a sunrise hot-air balloon ride from Albuquerque, and see the first rays illuminate the rugged Sandia Mountains. Take in stunning aerial views and dip low enough to skim the Rio Grande, then rise back up above the desert landscape. Touch down after your flight, and celebrate with sparkling wine before returning to your launch site.

Take a haunted tour of Old Town Albuquerque and learn about the many ghosts who have made the square home. Legends, folklore, ghost stories, and history come to life as you depart on an intriguing excursion through 313 years of haunted history. Historic buildings and dark alleys conceal long-forgotten secrets of battles, murders, hangings, hidden cemeteries, and more.

Admire views of the sunset over the Rio Grande Valley that few other visitors get to see on this small-group hot-air balloon flight from Albuquerque. Take to the skies with your certified pilot, who shares commentary along the way. Watch the evening light transform the Sandia Mountains and desert landscape, spot the region’s landmarks, and capture photos of New Mexico’s largest city. After touching down, toast your experience with a Champagne flight.
