Sunlight spills across Santa Fe’s adobe walls, but hidden shadows tell stories of shattered thrones, outlaw priests, and secrets slept beneath cathedral stones. Here, power and faith once clashed in ways few visitors ever glimpse.

Set out on a self-guided audio tour through these hallowed streets, where every step unlocks tales that don’t make the guidebooks. Uncover what others overlook as you wind between iconic landmarks and unsuspecting alleyways.

Whose desperate gamble nearly brought the New Mexico State Capitol to ruin? What miracle was whispered among ancient walls at the San Miguel Mission? How did a scandal unfold one stormy night beneath the vaulted arches of the Cathedral Basilica?

Each turn draws you further into the drama and wonder of Santa Fe’s tangled past. Hear the echoes of lost rebellions. Trace the footprints of power, hope, and betrayal.

Start listening and let Santa Fe reveal the city beneath its famous sunlit surface.
