As a die-hard fan of the BB universe, I gotta' say 3 hours on this tour with Luigi was as memorable as Felina.
We got to see so many cool spots from both BB and BCS. We got to have several photo ops, ate at Pollos (Twisters) and best of all was Luigi's kindness and professionalism.
Yes, in theory you probably COULD drive to these spots on your own, but navigating the ABQ is not what I want to do while on vacation. During the drive he shares many quirky and humorous anecdotes about the show, its actors and production team and its influence in the area. Plus, on the shuttle he has two TV's which show clips from scenes you are about to see. I was really impressed with the timing of everything. You are either seeing the location, hearing about it from Luigi (who served as a driver on the show so he has lots of personal insights) or you can watch the clip on the TV. He even adds in a few trivia questions where you can win small prizes. I was ENGAGED the entire 3 hours and I learned quite a bit even though I have watched BCS and BB a half dozen times, read books and visit message boards online.
Luigi was a kind, punctual, entertaining and professional guide. If you book a tour, you WILL...
Read moreLuigi was an incredibly energetic tour guide who loves doing these tours for fans. He has a lot of interesting life experiences to share from the show and drives you around to all the must-see filming locations, including a snack break at Los Pollos Hermanos, which is part of the tour. He treated us to burritos there. He plays clips from the show to refresh your memory when seeing the spots. There's a gift shop at the pick-up/drop-off point where you can get great breaking-bad souvenirs and other locally made trinkets. A must-do activity if you are visiting Albuquerque!
PS: Luigi does not accept cards/venmo etc, and cash is the only form of payment so please come prepared ahead of time. There is an ATM close to the pick-up spot.
Thank you for the...
Read moreWow! I booked the tour originally for Sat and failed to show up.. however, Luigi called me and gave me and another guy a private tour the next day! I was so excited because I came all the way from Guam and was sad that I missed my opportunity. Luigi was a great tour guide and showed us all the great Breaking Bad spots. He even let me get out of the car to take photos even though the schedule was tight! We had lunch at Los Pollos Hermanos (Twisters) which was amazing. The bandito burrito with the green chiles sauce was delicious. He also asked us trivia questions and gave us awesome gifts! It was well worth the trip. Also, Luigi has soooo many great stories to tell about his experiences with the Breaking Bad cast! Please please please book a...
