New Mexico is a 'varied' state, from low deserts along the Mexican border to mile high Albuquerque and on up to forested mountains along the Colorado state line.

I'd suggest you figure out what you'd like to see first. Lots of native-American sites, both current and ancient. From ballooning to hunting & fishing. Casinos to mountain trails.

Start here and then move onto Googling 'tourism info on New Mexico'.
I love the state.

I'd say that Taos would be much more isolated than Santa Fe. SheilaT Oct 2014 #17
