My wife and I vacationed in Santa Fe back during the week of Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta last October 2023. We did a Hot Air Balloon ride about 25 miles north of Santa Fe and loved it. Experienced the Spa at Ojo Caliente Santa Fe Spa and loved it. Also spent some time in Taos too and loved it. The Santa Fe Plaza is historic and very unique experience. We loved it so much that we flew back to Santa Fe this past May for another weeks vacation.
This is one of my very favorite episodes. Here are some reasons why: Listen to the background sound when Ricardo Cate first talks to the camera. The miraculously appropriate lyrics that you start to hear while Sam is overlooking the city on her hike (completely unintended). The unexpected transition out of that performance, and the way the scene later visually changes. The vintage stills in the hotel sequence looking like they're printed on stucco. The way the Harvey Girls bring us into the closing sequence by "answering Sam's last question." Like I said, one of our best.
My wife and I absolutely love Santa Fe. The last time we visited, we enjoyed a traditional Japanese onsen spa experience at Ten Thousand Waves. Thank you for bringing back such wonderful memories for us!
I really appreciated the segment with the massage therapist. They were very articulate, informative, and humble in their healing approach. I love Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico. New Mexico is so under-rated as a travel destination.
I have lived and/or worked in Santa Fe since 1996. I’ve lived in my current place since 2011. My niche hobby is photography of the nature within walking distance of my home.
So glad you got to meet the two Harvey Girls, such wonderful people. I remember moving to Santa Fe in 1970, and staying at the La Fonda. There was a little shop in the Foyer then. Good place for breakfast as well.
As a native person who’s been watching your show since I was a child, this episode was so wonderful to watch. Thanks for sharing your thoughtful and respectful trip!
Samantha, I've watched you on TV since I was a little child growing up in India.. especially the 'Passport to' series and your Asia travels... ❤ Now I'm 30 (Yikes!!!), and i still turn to you for travel and adventure advise! Lots of warm greetings to you 🎉❤🥳
@@revatichowgule8220 hi! Thanks so much for your kind words. I’m really happy my fans from around the world can finally watch the series that I’m most proud of. Thanks again!!
My wife lived there for twelve years. We were married in the Cathedral. We had mariachis lead a wedding procession from the Cathedral, around the plaza, and back. The plaza, in a sense, is ours.
No one, and I mean no one with any brains, would put aside a piping hot breakfast burrito to chat. Burrito first, then gab. Or maybe gab AND eat. And I noticed no one ordered their burritos “Christmas Style!”
Thank you for not selling Santa Fe or New Mexico as only a tricultural experience (Anglo, Spanish, Native) as others were here also and contributed but they are not recognized so much or at all by our Tourism Commission.

Santa Fe is truly a special place!
I've been watching Samantha Brown for years, and I'm amazed that she never seems to age. She's timeless!
@@SamanthaFl thanks!
Oh she aged if she came to Santa Fe. Santa Fe is a fake city redesigned for old white people
All the way back to "Globe trekker"!
@@davideverett5214 I wasn’t on that one!
When I was a child I lived outside of Sante Fe and I have so many fond memories of the city and state. I love new mexico ❤

Funny! I started watching this video at cowgirl with the bartender Alex Van Camp. I went to high school with her. 🍀😁 Happy she's doing amazing! 🤠
Small world!

Santa Fe is a scam.all the locals are pushed out for paintings
Thanks Samantha for continuing your series. So much fun to watch and learn

@@kathyhepler382 you need to go, such a beautiful place!
Santa Fe is a fake city with fake art is lying when she says we evolved over 400 years. The evolution stopped in 1920.
I'm so glad that I found your channel! Really well done. You've never disappointed and now I can do a deep dive here on UA-cam. Keep 'em coming!
thanks!!
My family is from New Mexico and you really captured the beauty of Santa Fe and its energy. Wonderful video!
@@PACKYCSONE80 thanks! That means a lot!!!
She captured fake santa fe the cartoon guy is ok but every thing else is fake
Thanks for your videos. You're the reason I stayed at The Square in Copenhagen years ago!
@@annettesonneson3468 thanks for following!

Samantha, you are a national treasure! I have always thought you were so wonderful. And such an inspiration for me to get out of my confines.

@@biker944 thanks!
Samantha, in seeing that you've been to Santa Fe multiple times, what's it like at Christmastime? I'm looking for somewhere to go by myself.
I found my girl Samatha Brown! It has been over 20 years and you haven’t aged. Glad your back
@@AdventureswithCatherine thanks! 80 episodes for you to catch up on!

When you coming back to NH ?
Was just there last month!
@@RealSamanthaBrown did you see the whales off New Castle ? wish i would have known would love to meet you someday, big fan !
Far out. The algorithm sent me the Orange County episode the day I went to Santa Fe, and the Santa Fe episode when I’m in OC.
Spooky
That is spooky! Don't tell me that next week you are going to be in Seoul are you?
Ha! I don’t think so…
🙂🇺🇲
My wife lived there for twelve years. We were married in the Cathedral. We had mariachis lead a wedding procession from the Cathedral, around the plaza, and back. The plaza, in a sense, is ours.
@@davidpaz9389 thanks for letting us use your plaza!
内容非常有意思
Who needs a Bucket List??? Just keep a Samantha Brown file.
@@denisefazio6708 ha! Thanks!
Stayed for three days. Three different restaurants..the WORST service! Beautiful city though!
Asking if the artists are from nm like they arent gentrifers
I guess this is the new Travel Channel now. (The old one is just food porn and ghost chasing.)
@@omegamale7880 been on PBS for 7 years now but that’s all getting posted here now too. Thanks!
Food.😅

The cowgirls food has been going down hill for awhile. There are so many better places for margaritas too. It's become a tourist trap.
Too bad our artists here never challenge anything exoect the cartoonist
When is Boulder going to be a place to love?
@@scruffyandrabbit not currently on list but I will add it for consideration! Thanks!
