A very interesting and informative experience. Had a great guide and enjoyed exploring a part of Taos I had driven by for years but never stopped to see. Would recommend for anyone with an interest in architecture and/or sustainability!

I have been interested in Earthships ever since I first heard about them. When we planned our trip to New Mexico, one of the first reservations I made was the Earthship Biotecture guided tour. It did not disappoint! Our guide Will was very knowledgeable and informative. He was very down to earth (no pun intended) and realistic. Working in the environmental /sustainability field I find some people can be a bit woo woo and unrealistic. It was interesting to hear him talk about meeting people where they are. My coworkers and fellow volunteers try to do that when we're teaching about composting, recycling, and zero waste. I plan on incorporating what I learned into my talks on sustainability. While I may not be building an Earthship in the near future, I hope to integrate some of the design principles into my conventional suburban home. For now I am the envy of my friends and coworkers who are all interested in the Earthship Biotecture project.

The tour guide knew everything about the Earthships as he had built them and he lived in one! Very interesting concepts. He also mentioned what it was like to live there.

i was expecting this to be an educational tour, but apparently it was more of a sales pitch… yet i left feeling confused why we didn’t see more functional, upkept structures. everything we were shown was run down, dirty, broken windows, fly traps with hundreds of flys…
