By promoting our region's diverse tourism opportunities we aspire to drive economic development for both Alamosa and the greater San Luis Valley region. Utilizing responsible tourism messaging we further aim to transform Alamosa into an increasingly prominent travel destination while simultaneously supporting our area's vibrant business sector, cultural history, and the entire community.
We've created this page to establish a digital connection to the restaurants, lodging properties, and many businesses that make up our amazing community. Our goal is to improve the way we work together and ultimately strengthen our community.

Visit Alamosa is the tourism marketing entity for Alamosa County. Visit Alamosa encompasses both the Alamosa Convention & Visitors Bureau and the Marketing District Board & Tourism Board, who are appointed by the Alamosa County Commissioners. Our organization is funded by a combination of two voter-approved taxes, the Marketing District Tax and Lodging Tax, both of which are paid by visitors to our hotels, RV parks, and short-term rentals.
The Visit Alamosa is a dedicated team of staff and board of directors who care deeply about Alamosa and the surrounding area. We strive to ensure your visit here is as full and rich as possible, and you will find that our down-home hospitality cannot be matched anywhere.
