Rainbow Ryders Hot Air Balloon Co.

Balloon ride tour agency

👍👍 This was an experience of a lifetime. I was scared but had so much fun. The ride was gentle and smooth. The landing was not as gentle all was worth it. Our pilot Anthony was the best at telling a lot of pun jokes and was educational whenever asked questions. In the end, we had mimosas to share our j...

Albuquerque New Mexico Temple

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

👍👍 Me and my buddy visited this past Tuesday. The Spirit is incredibly strong here. It is a very sacred place for people of our faith, but anybody is welcome to walk around the exterior of this beautiful building. I take every opportunity I have to visit.

Japanese Gardens

Garden

👍👍 They are still lovely in the winter, but the pond steams and seems to have stagnant water. Sadly, the season prevents us from appreciating the garden's full grandeur, but it is still a lovely location with many of koi fish and a lovely waterfall. We're hoping to return in the summer.

Embudito Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 My favorite trail to South peak. First two miles are no shade but the rest is beautiful. Almost 12 miles round trip. And the most Elevation change out if all the trails if you are looking for a challenge. I made my new record on this day 4 hours and 1 minute.

Kiwanis Cabin

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Definitely worth the easy hike! Views are insane. Cabin is awesome as well, but I could see how mass crowds could ruin everything. We went on a weekday in October, and was not really the warmest or calmest day at all. There were two people there when we just got to the cabin, but nobody else the re...

#AbqTours - History & GHOST Tours of Old Town

Tourist attraction

👍👍 We did a private ghost tour with Charlie as our tour guide. He was amazing and the tour was incredible. We’ve done several ghost tours in multiple states/cities and this was by far the best (and creepiest) one we have ever been on. It’s a easy walk (no hills) with multiple places to sit if you need....

Rio Rancho Dental Associates

Dentist

👍👍 I recently started with Rio Rancho Dental Associates and have only had my teeth cleaned so far (3 visits). I am very happy with them as I have bone loss, receding gums and tooth sensitivity. They are very good ensuring they don't hurt me but get my teeth cleaned thoroughly. They listen when I tell t...

Willow Creek Trailhead and Open Space

Hiking area

👍👍 The river looks very low now but it's still a very beautiful place to walk with your dogs. There's a few trails, long or short depending on how much you want to walk. One trash can at the entrance and another towards the NE side. It's more beautiful during autumn because the trees turn a beautiful c...
