Best Cities to Visit in New Mexico
- *Albuquerque: *From the Sandia Mountains to the shops and galleries of historic Old Town and the Petroglyph National Monument, Albuquerque has something for everyone. Ride the Sandia Peak Tramway for amazing city views from above. Families love ABQ BioPark with its aquarium, botanical garden, zoo and more. If you’re visiting in October, check out the city’s annual International Balloon Fiesta.
- *Santa Fe: *The art scene in New Mexico’s capital city is so ubiquitous that it was designated a UNESCO Creative City. Canyon Road is the city’s historic arts district that features over 100 galleries, shops and restaurants. Santa Fe is also a haven for outdoor fun, with many popular hiking trails in the surrounding hills and mountains, plus skiing and snow sports in the winter.
- *Roswell: *For a quirky, out-of-this-world experience, visit Roswell. Here, you can learn about the alleged 1947 UFO landing and other alien activity at the UFO Museum and Research Center and take in the alien-themed décor and attractions around town. For a more down-to-earth experience, there’s the Roswell Museum and Art Center and Bottomless Lake State Park.
Summer in New Mexico
The warm, dry summers in New Mexico are perfect for hiking in the mountains or perusing the annual art markets popping up around the state, including Santa Fe’s International Folk Art Market in July and the Santa Fe Indian Market in August. The Elephant Butte Balloon Regatta held each August is one of many hot air balloon shows in New Mexico. Rent a premium sedan and take the ultimate road trip along Route 66, where the “Mother Road” still runs through towns like Tucumcari, Santa Rosa and Gallop.
Winter in New Mexico
New Mexico’s high mountain peaks in areas like the Taos Ski Valley and Riudoso are a great backdrop for skiing and other winter sports. At lower elevations, the weather is mild enough year-round for hiking and mountain biking along popular trails. Rent a car in New Mexico to explore some of the state’s unique landscapes like the caves of Carlsbad Caverns National Park or the desert landscape of White Sands National Park.

Got some really great deal from SIXT. The rental process is quick and efficient. Picking up the car is really easy. All rental car companies should follow their model. Have rented numerous times in Albuquerque just because of the customer service and the efficiency of the rental process. I drive a BMW so I rent BMWs everytime so I fell comfortable. Rented an X5 for a couple of weeks to travel. It was awesome. Just recently rented a 530 and it was fairly new and super clean. If you had a bad experience at SIXT you need to look at yourself first. Never have had any issues at all at this place. In Dallas SIXT was a savior for me. Rent direct from them. Do not use a third party for renting cars. Those reservations are not guaranteed.

Nice upgrade, good check-in and drop off after hours. Only glitch was trying to report existing damage to desk clerk. Had to document and email corporate several times to resolve.

Raynette @ SIXT- Albuquerque was and is amazing. Smoothest check-in I’ve had and I travel A LOT. There were also some unreasonable customers that were trying to make things very difficult. Raynette kept her composure and handled the situation gracefully. I hope every rental experience I have will be as pleasant and this.
