プライベート乗馬＆ワインテイスティングツアー

Had a wonderful private tour through Captain Jacks. Jacob picked us up promptly at our hotel and shuttled us up to the ranch for a gorgeous morning horseback ride. The wranglers chose our horses for us based on riding experience and I must say, I was impressed! The animals are well cared for and it shows. There were only 4 guests on our ride and it was easy to converse with trail guide. The scenery is stunning! After this, we drove up to taste wine at 2 different vineyards. We enjoyed a delicious ( optional purchase ) lunch at our first stop. I recommend eating as not only is the food delicious, you try a lot of different varietals. This was a delightful day and fun activity to experience while in the area. Pro tip : Book directly through tour operator and save yourself some $$.

My wife and I wanted to do something fun and somewhat off the beaten path. The horse ride and wine tasting was a great combination! The staff at the ranch were amazing and picked horses based on the rider’s ability. Meredith not only ferried us from hotel to stables to wineries, but shared tons of interesting local history and made short detours to show us cool locations along the way. We never felt rushed and thoroughly enjoyed the whole day! Highly recommend!

Meredith was amazing! She gave us so much info as we were traveling and we saw some amazing views! The wineries were awesome and the horseback riding was so much fun!

We had such a great time with Meredith!! She was so kind and warm and made the whole day so special. We went from horse back riding to wine tasting based on her recommendation!

I booked a horseback riding and wine tasting tour for my besties bachelorette party this month. We had the most amazing experience with Captain Jack’s Tours. I honestly can’t say enough good things. Our tour guide Meredith was so kind, and really went above and beyond for our group of girls. Right from the start, she was comforting my friend who gets nervous on long drives. Throughout the day, she checked in and made sure we had cold water and snacks to keep us going. After horseback riding, she took us to a great winery for lunch and even ran a quick errand after one of the girls had an unexpected accident. At the last winery, we started getting a little silly and I accidentally twisted my ankle. Meredith was so quick to get me ice and prop up my foot in the van. By the end of the day, we were calling her Mom because she really looked after us!

We had a great time, and the tour made a wonderful birthday gift! Mark in the office was quick to respond to emails and answer questions, and was friendly over the phone while booking the horseback and wine tour. Meredith was our guide and super sweet and knowledgeable. She was on time and had a thoughtful welcome beverage to help us celebrate and start off right. The horseback excursion was a lovely ride through the canyon. The horses get to roam free at night throughout the ranch which was nice to hear, and they were clearly well taken care of. All of the ranching staff were friendly and made us feel at ease, even if we weren’t around horses regularly. The ride boasted lovely panoramic views and ended up being a fairly tranquil experience. The couple of wineries we went to were lovely as well. Overall, we had a great time and I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks!

Meredith was the best tour guide we ever experienced! She was well versed in the history of Santa Ynez and giving us lots of fun facts at each winery we went too and she through in a surprise stop at the end. Wonderful experience and it was very intimate as it was only a total of 4 people on our tour.

My husband and I had the best time on the Santa Ynez wine tour with Meredith! She took us to excellent wineries and was very accommodating for what we were looking for! She’s close with all the winery servers which is always a nice bonus! Transportation was smooth and included plenty of water and even snacks. Recommend to all looking for a tour of the area.

I have lived in Santa Barbara part time for 5 years and have always taken guests over to the wine country myself, so I knew a little bit about things there, but Meredith opened my eyes to so much more. I had 7 girlfriends come to visit and Meredith worked with me to make it a great memorable experience. She was very accommodating to all our needs and wants. You knew the owners of the vineyards thought well of her, and she introduced me to each of them. We went to the olive farm, which I didn't know existed there, and was a great addition to our tour. Meredith recommended the lunch at Roblar which was fabulous. On the way back to Santa Barbara, the sun was setting and she even pulled over to allow us to take pictures of the amazing sunset. From start to finish, it was a perfect day.

We did a wine tour with Captain Jack's Santa Barbara Tours for my mum's birthday. We wanted to have a fun but safe experience given Covid 19 and everything. Meredith the tour guide wore her mask the whole time and found wineries that did outdoor tasting for us. Meredith was so sweet and accommodating. She even bought a bottle of wine for my mum. Meredith was so organized and everything went smoothly. We highly recommend this tour company.
