We had hoped to visit this summer but most Indian pueblos and associated businesses are temporarily closed so check back before you visit. We have visited this several times. Each time finding more improvements. The tour of the pueblo starts at the cultural center that houses a nice museum and cafe. Behind this is a covered shaded area for local tribe members to sell their beautiful crafts. Acoma is well known for their distinctive paooteru with fine-lined geometric designs. They also do beautiful silver jewelry. The prices at the pueblo are much lower than elsewhere and you are buying directly with the artists. The tour to the mesa top to see the pueblo starts there by bus , then an hour long walking tour led by a tribal member. An unforgettable experience.…

It is an enchanting place to visit. The buildings are old and incredibly well preserved. The residents we talked with were friendly and wanted to tell the story of Acoma. Have always admired the Native American pottery and Acoma is some of the beat. The view from the mesa is awe-inspiring. It is certainly worth the visit.…

Absolultey loved this center and the tour up toe the Acoma Pueblo. The video gave a good introduction as to what we should expect seeing the Pueblo and then our fantastic guide reinforced all that we saw. He was a native and so proud of his heritage and had a great way of describing and detailing the history. It was the highlight of my New Mexico trip. It was also nice to walk down the trail instead of taking the tour bus. It's rather steep and challenging in spots, but helps to give one an even better understanding of the challenges faced by the original natives.…

The tour is a worth the price. Take the time to watch the film. Up on top, the church and graveyard are one of the big highlights so don't miss it because you are shopping. On the other hand, go shopping! You don't ever have a chance to wind around and back again. The only way to get back there is to get a camera pass. That gets you on the next tour bus up to the top. It was $15 when I went. There are a lot of vendors, not just the few you see when you first get off the bus, but all along the route. Ok, now go have fun and learn lots. …

After a visit to the Acoma Sky City spend some time wandering around the cultural center, well worth spending time looking at some exhibits and wandering around the outside of the building.
