Sightseeing
The Tram is one of the must-see activities in Albuquerque. It used to be the longest in the world till someplace in China had to beat us out... Nevertheless, it's stunning views and the Santiago's restaurant at the bottom are perfect for date night or some solo time. There's a trail head near the base of the tram, so if you're up for a nice hard hike, it's beautiful!
