NEW FALL OPTIONS
Autumn in the American Southwest is Sublime
When summer temperatures cool down, fall foliage pops and it’s the perfect time to discover the soul of the Southwest. Be amazed by red-rock formations, eerie hoodoos, the solitary beauty of saguaro cactuses, and the magnificent Grand Canyon. The quiet grace of Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico feel like a healing. Discover the visible layers of time, and the majesty of nature, when autumn comes to the desert.
Sedona, Santa Fe, Taos, and Albuquerque—all of these are destinations that welcome nearby exploration with local guides. All are also perfect for classic road trips—get into a convertible and feel the wide-open freedom particular to the Southwest. When you reach the higher elevations, you’ll be gifted with a show of colors from serviceberries, cottonwoods, poplars, and quaking aspens.
What sort of lodging are you dreaming about? Choose from traditional southwestern hotels, iconic inns that were frequented by movie stars in the 1940’s, or restorative retreats. Try yoga on a mountain top. Taste a prickly pear margarita. Learn regional cooking with a master. Discover edible desert plants. There’s no end to the mystique of autumn in the Southwest.

NEW WINTER OPTIONS
Wintertime in the American Southwest
Whether you want to get into the snow and revel in winter, or escape the cold and bask in wellness, the southwest is an ideal vacation choice. In the low desert, temperatures are mild and perfect for long walks, golf, star gazing, and exploring ghost towns. If you’re a fan of winter sports, the high elevations offer world-class skiing, tubing, ice-skating, and exquisite mountain lodges.
National Parks are open in the winter, and you’ll have the opportunity to experience them in relative solitude. Zion and Bryce are particularly spectacular, with snow icing the red-rock marvels. Sedona lights up all winter long—stroll the streets, linger in galleries, explore Oak Creek Canyon, and seek out one of the vortex’s that the area is famous for.
Timeless Santa Fe and Taos are cultural havens. The winter sports, shopping, and dining at Sundance are legendary. Traditional western ranches and towns are a delight. Go dog-sledding and meet the pups. Feed your creative nature with private workshops. Unwind in natural hot springs. Winter in the Southwest is all about renewal, wonder, and play. Smile.
