We had a fantastic day riding around on bikes, visiting a lavender farm, olive oil tasting, enjoying great tasting wines and more. Would recommend!
This tour was the highlight of our trip to Santa Barbara. William was very knowledgeable and took great care during our bike around Santa Ynez and Ballard Canyon. He served us a picnic and tastings of several wines from the area after our bike ride, and we enjoyed winding down our tour at a local vineyard. We highly recommend this to anyone wanting to get up close and personal with the beauty and charm of Southern California.
William was absolutely amazing. Communication before the event was right on. Pick up location perfect with parking. The tour was the best. He paced it so well, allowing for stops to explore and learn along the way. Lunch was superb and he really paid attention to food allergies for us. The wines, the best way to end a perfect day. Would highly recommend!!
We had a wonderful time. It was one of the best bike rides I have been on. William, our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Also, the scenery was just gorgeous-green hills for miles! I would highly recommend this bike tour.
William is a great guide- weather in February was terrific- ride was broken up intelligently- food and wine was great! Highly recommend 😎
Very lovely day that was well timed and planned! We had a lot of fun with the ebikes! Highly recommend!
William was a great host and very knowledgeable of the area. We had a great ride with beautiful views, wonderful lunch and Rideau was a fantastic winery to finish our day. Highly recommend William and this tour.
William was a great host, very knowledgeable about the vineyards and wines, very conscientious of all us riders on the roads, his bikes are in great condition, his homemade lunch with wine tasting was delicious. I liked that we rode 16 miles and then stopped for lunch and wine tastings. We took the option of hotel pickup/drop off and it was a great way to enjoy the ride and splendid views from Santa Barbara to Santa Ynez . Highly recommended!
We were blown away by how cool this biking and wine country experience was. Scenic biking + wine tastings + great food + fun company . . . this tour is special in many ways. If you enjoy biking, this is an incredible scenic tour. You travel among beautiful wine country scenery, small local towns, and some pretty cool farms. If you are not an experienced biker, the high end e-bikes make it quite easy. We’d happily sign up for this tour again just for the biking adventure. After biking, the lunch and wine tasting were great and in a beautiful spot. You’ll enjoy incredible local food, and the wine pairings are a terrific way to learn and to enjoy Santa Barbara wine country. Your experience then includes another wine tasting at a cool local winery. (Of the day, we enjoyed 8-9 local wine tastings, and also had fun with olive oil tastings and visiting a lavender farm – each involving cool discussions with the local owners.) William is an incredible host and great guide throughout the day. He ensures a fun, comfortable, and safe experience – and he was a true joy to get to know and to spend the day with.
Absolutely loved this ebike tour. By far the best tour we did during our 3 week trip to the States. Great Guide, very knowledgeable. Fantastic Scenery. E bikes very easy to use. Olive oil tasting, lunch with wine, and wine flight tasting all included. Pick up and drop off back at hotel. Truly warrants the 5 star rating.
