It’s time for Sagittarius to shine. When the sun slides into this fire sign from Nov. 22 to Dec. 21, the world suddenly feels full of possibility. This dynamic fire sign thrives on adventure. According to Astro Poets, a Sagittarius loves freedom and rarely follows a blueprint, preferring to make their own decisions. A mutable fire sign, a Sagittarius is very honest and optimistic.
Albuquerque is packed with adventure to satisfy any Sagittarian’s thirst for excitement. Here’s the ultimate guide to Albuquerque for the ninth sign of the zodiac.
What to do
Take adventure to new heights with a hot air balloon ride over the city. Many hot air ballooning companies in Albuquerque offer rides year-round. For an exciting ride up the Sandia Mountains, hop aboard the Sandia Peak Aerial Tramway. This 2.7-mile tram takes you to the top of the Sandias, where the view spans more than 11,000 miles.
A Sagittarius will love the opportunity to explore Albuquerque in a different way. Wander through the desert's beauty on horseback with The Stables at Tamaya. A trail guide will lead you through the cottonwood trees lining the Rio Grande and along mesas. Or, book a tour with New Mexico Jeep Tours for a guided exploration of the city’s landscape, culture and history.
Where to Eat
Step into the retro glow of 66 Diner. Order a green chile cheeseburger and a drink from the classic soda fountain while soaking in the ’50s decor. Try a pizza flight with unique flavors at Gimani. Miches will invigorate your tastebuds with fresh seafood and delicious micheladas. Get onboard the hotdog craze at Urban Hotdog Company. A Sagittarus will love the more unique hotdogs like the relleno dog, which is inspired by a chile relleno.
For stunning views of the city and tasty cocktails, head to Volaré Rooftop Bar. The Sandia Mountains will be the backdrop as you sip on a drink and nosh on some snacks. If you prefer your drinks with a dash of cardio, book a trip on the Duke City Pedaler. This 14-passenger party bike will stop at a few local watering holes as you ride the streets of Albuquerque.
Where to Stay
