Most Breaking Bad sightseeing clusters in two areas: Old Town, where the RV tour starts and the fan shops are, and the long Central Avenue strip of old Route 66.
Here is how to fill a day around the tour.
The quick answer
Start with the morning RV tour from the Breaking Bad Store in Old Town, then browse the store's museum room and the blue rock candy shops nearby. In the afternoon drive Central Avenue for the Dog House and the Route 66 motels, and check whether the convention center downtown has an event on, so you can see the Walt and Jesse statues.
What is the Breaking Bad Store?
A fan shop on Old Town's plaza at 2049 S Plaza St NW, with souvenirs, a small museum of props and photo set-ups, and the RV tour's meeting point.
Fans pose behind a Saul Goodman desk, at a Los Pollos Hermanos counter and in Hector Salamanca's wheelchair. Reports differ on whether the museum room charges a small fee, so check on the day. It typically opens around 10 AM.
Start the day here: the RV tour leaves from the Breaking Bad Store.

In Old Town: the Breaking Bad Store sells blue rock candy, and the Candy Lady nearby is known for it.
It is sugar candy coloured to look like Walt's product, sold in small bags. It makes a good, cheap souvenir.
Where are the Walter White and Jesse Pinkman statues?
Inside the Albuquerque Convention Center downtown: life-size bronze figures donated to the city by Vince Gilligan.
They are only accessible when an event is running at the convention center, so check its calendar first. Seeing them is free, apart from parking.
What is on Route 66 for fans?
Central Avenue has the Dog House drive-in and the Crossroads Motel from the show, plus some of the best surviving Route 66 neon.
The El Vado Motel west of Old Town has been restored with a taproom and food stalls, a good stop for an afternoon drink.
Want Route 66 and Old Town without driving? The trolley tour covers both, with a few film sites.
