COVID-19 UPDATE:

Unfortunately, the Spirit of Santa Fe trip has been cancelled. While we are trending in the right direction, the slower than expected vaccine roll out and the ability to safely meet as a group within legal and moral guidelines is not possible. If you have put down a deposit or payment for this trip is will be returned to you via check.

As disappointing as this news is to deliver, we know it is the right decision and we look forward to traveling together again in the near future.

On a positive note, our Heart of the Highlands Scotland trip is on schedule for September 21-29, 2021 and we expect it to operate without issue. Click here to join us in SCOTLAND!

This will be our 1st Wonders of the World {WOW} Tour in mainland USA!

SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO

Why We LOVE Santa Fe

I’m excited about this adventure because, even as an American, we’re going to places I’ve read about my entire life, but have never seen… like legendary and renowned Bandelier, where Native Americans settled into the sculpted canyons and mesa tops of the Pajarito Plateau!

Every day we’ll head out from our home-base, Eldorado Hotel & Spa, on adventures like river-rafting the Rio Grande, visiting Abiquiu on the Ghost Ranch Tour, visiting scenic Chimayo, meditating at Upaya Zen Center, hiking Tent Rocks, and more.

Oh, The Places We’ll Go

Here's some of what we have to look forward to together over the course of this great adventure.

Southwest adventures

Optional morning meditation with Andy Dooley.

After breakfast and a TUT Talk we will set out to discover various adventures in the Southwest. Lunch will either be included on your chosen tour or with a cash allowance. In the upcoming months you will be asked to choose from the following excursions:

Tent Rocks Hike (7:00 AM-12:00 PM)

Enjoy a beautiful slot canyon hike through the unique geological area known as Kasha-Kutuwe Tent Rocks. These large cone shaped rocks (“hoodoos”) hugging the steep cliffs of Peralta Canyon are a sight to be seen. The trail will meander through an arroyo with beautiful old trees dotting the landscape here and there, with the canyon walls rising up above you on either side. You’ll soon come to a narrowing of the trail where it twists and turns through the narrow slot canyon. Exiting the slot canyon, the area will open up more and you’ll get closer to some massive hoodoos. The trail starts to climb from here for a short while until you reach the mesa top, dotted with gnarled old juniper trees. Take a break and enjoy the view before heading back the way you came. The total distance is 3.1 miles, and it is a slight uphill climb for the first 3/4 mile, a flatter section through the slot canyon, and then a steeper climb for the last 1/2 mile or so to the top. Overall the trail is listed as moderate, by AllTrails.

Note: Plan to bring sunscreen, a hat, comfortable flat walking shoes with rubber soles, and sunglasses.

Abiquiu & Ghost Ranch Tour (8:00 AM-3:00 PM)

For those who love Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings, this 5-hour tour is a must! We’ll take you to the environs of Abiquiu, a picturesque region of New Mexico that captured O’Keeffe’s “White Place”, with its spectacular rock formations. You will visit Ghost Ranch where O’Keeffe had a home, marvel at the landscapes and learn about the unique history of the Genízaro who settled in this area in the mid-1700s.

Note: Plan on bringing sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses and wear comfortable walking shoes.

Chimayo Tour (9:00 AM-3:00 PM)

Enjoy a genuine taste of the Spanish and Pueblo cultures of New Mexico and the amazing landscapes north of Santa Fe. We’ll visit the Spanish village of Chimayo with its legendary church, local arts, and chile. We’ll travel across the Rio Grande to an Indian Pueblo renowned for pottery. From a high cliff, we’ll overlook breathtaking views of the region.

Note: Plan to bring sunscreen, a hat, comfortable flat walking shoes with rubber soles, and sunglasses.

Bandelier national monument

Optional morning meditation with Andy Dooley.

Start the day with breakfast and a TUT Talk. After, we’re off to discover Bandelier National Monument and the mysteries and treasures from Paleoindians over 11,000 years ago to the Pueblo people of today.

Petroglyphs, dwellings carved into the soft rock cliffs, and standing masonry walls pay tribute to the early days of a culture that still survives in the surrounding communities. The Pueblo people settled in the sculpted canyons and mesa tops of the Pajarito Plateau west of Santa Fe. This amazing volcanic landscape is among the most beautiful places in the Southwest. This half-day trip to the Bandelier National Monument holds cliff dwellings and expansive ruins of old Pueblo villages dating to the 1500s. The drive to and from Bandelier is quite beautiful too. The route crosses the Rio Grande near San Ildefonso Pueblo and includes some extra stops that will amaze! Lunch is included along the way.

Meet The Crew

Mike Dooley

Mike Dooley

aka "The Universe"

Travel, alone, is mind-expanding and invigorating, but when you add to the mix fantastic itineraries, in exotic locales, great conversations, and super-cool people... NOTHING ELSE COMPARES! I’ve been on every one of our WOW Tours, and they’ve quickly become the highlights of my year. During each trip, I have this feeling, "YES! This is it! Life is so awesome! I HAVE TO SPREAD THE WORD to all our fellow TUTTERS how truly awesome these adventures are!" So, needless to say, I’ll be with you throughout the entire trip, at the center of the action, part of every moment and experience! In addition to the adventure aspect, I’ll be delivering casual, unplugged workshops about the nature of reality, life, dreams, and happiness.
