Overview

Immerse into Taos’ eclectic artistic community! Starting on Kit Carson Road, weave in and out of winding alleyways exploring the historical context while pausing to mix with the local art scene. Taos has been on the map as an art colony since the late 1800s and it has a reputation for its eclectic talented creative populace. Come to this high desert mountain town to not only experience the ethereal light and vivid landscape, but to also encounter this dynamic community and their remarkable art to life. Enjoy a mix of old and new while exploring downtown’s rich art history. Discover the vibrant center of this uniquely quirky and highly talented community.
We conclude this tour with a Chocolate Elixir at Chokola to weave in the art of chocolate making by owners Deb and Javier who are passionate about every step in the process of their decadent sipping chocolate, truffles, mousses and tarts! A perfect way to celebrate the finale of your immersion to Taos Artisans!

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
