Post-conference Tours:
- Acoma Indian Pueblo One of the
most unusual settlements in the Western Hemisphere is this ancient
"city in the sky," which stands hundreds of feet above the surrounding
land on top of a sandstone mesa. Acoma Pueblo was founded in the 12th
century A.D. or possibly earlier. It is the oldest inhabited village
in the United States. The 5-hour tour will depart from the Sheraton
Old Town Hotel at 8:30 am on Sunday and return at approximately 1:30
pm. Cost $35.
- A Day in Santa Fe Gray Line has modified
their standard tour to better meet the interests of ASI members and
to provide more leisure time in Santa Fe. The bus will take the most
direct route to Santa Fe so that arrival time will coincide with the
openings of the three museums at Museum Plaza. The tour fee includes
a pass for admission to all the museums. Departure from the Sheraton
Old Town Hotel will be at 9:00 am on Sunday with return at approximately
5:00 pm. Cost: $43.
