A great tour!! The girl who lead our tour told us it was her first time leading, however I would’ve NEVER known because she was so charismatic, knowledgeable and relaxed. She’s a natural. Beautiful homes and so glad I made the visit.

This was an amazing, inspirational tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and informative and I greatly appreciated being able to explore these sustainable buildings up close after years of viewing them online. Our goal is to learn more so we can avoid mistakes along our own journey and we definitely did. I would recommend taking the time to take a tour to anyone interested in sustainable architecture.

I’ve wanted to visit the Greater Earth community for YEARS. I am thrilled to have finally done the tour and heartily recommend the guided (and self-guided) versions.

James did a really good job with the tour and was very knowledgeable. I was somewhat disappointed that we actually wasn’t able to tour a completed airship, to picture how it would be set up.

I absolutely loved going just outside of Taos to see some Earthships. The tour started with a classroom session about the main principle's of these buildings (the class is in an Earthship) and then toured around some experimental ones. Gorgeous artistry was on display - very inspiring and awesome to see! Unfortunately tho (and maybe I missed reading this detail on the website, due to my extreme excitement of finally being able to see one of these homes in person) but we did NOT get a tour of a finished/functional Earthship :( We very much thought that we were going to tour at least one finished/functional build! Other than that it was a neat visit.

Great experience. Learned a lot, friendly and informative. Loved seeing how it all comes together in person and how positive it is for ecosystem and viable in most states.
