Visit Albuquerque Launches Customizable Staycation Packages

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – (Aug. 27, 2020) – In an effort to support the local hospitality community and provide residents with a fun and safe escape that’s close to home, Visit Albuquerque is excited to announce the opportunity for Albuquerque locals and New Mexico residents to design their perfect staycation in Albuquerque.

“Working with our hospitality partners, we’ve put together customizable staycation packages featuring only-in-Albuquerque experiences designed to minimize contact and maximize fun,” said Tania Armenta, President & CEO of Visit Albuquerque. “These ‘Stay, Play and Crave’ experiences encourage locals to rediscover their city and immerse in-state visitors within our city’s distinctive offerings, all while emphasizing physically distanced activities and highlighting businesses that have earned their New Mexico Safe Certification.”

Locals and New Mexico residents can build their perfect Albuquerque staycation by going to VisitABQ.org/plan-my-trip/staycation and following the steps to book a hotel, unlock discount codes for attractions and activities, and find outdoor dining options to create the perfect getaway. There’s something for everyone – from a thrilling hot air balloon flight or scenic ride on the Sandia Peak Tramway to a guided bicycle or walking tour.

For those who aren’t sure where to begin, Visit ABQ has come up with a few sample itineraries for inspiration:

A staycation for the foodie
