Chill tour north to south/east to west
Our hostess Juliana did a great job of showing us the sights, keeping a good pace for our family, and maintaining a positive vibe while safely navigating the busy bike paths and city streets with us. Bikes were easily manageable and equipped with baskets, making it handy for personal belongings. They provide helmets and filled water bottles which were a nice bonus
Operator response
Glad you enjoyed your bike tour with Juliana! Santa Barbara is a great place for biking and bike tours are a great way to see and learn about the town and coast. Thanks for touring with us!

A Bike tour of Santa Barbara with Danny is a must!
Danny was superb. Our tour was perfect- we saw the city from prominent points that included the Ty Warners perimeter with absolutely fabulous landscaping on a secluded bike path., City College, and the Courthouse clock tower. He mapped the two-hour ride to match our riding skills, and along the way, shared local color that was informative and fascinating. When we return to SB, we will book him again. Just outstanding. W & M

A day cycling with Danny in SB is the BEST!
Danny has learned all the nuances and highlights of Santa Barbara to share with his cycling customers. Even Pace the ride so that every time we were ready to stop for a little water we were at an incredible Vista like Thai Warner’s bikepath or city College or the courthouse Clocktower.. we could not have seen this much of the city without his help or the bikes that were in great condition. This is a must if you want a safe, informative and pleasurable day in Santa Barbara.

Santa Barbara Mountain Biking Outing
Great experience. Sergio and Sean were very knowledgeable about both mountain biking and the area. We took the beginners class and had a great time biking around the coast next to UCSB. They took us to several great overlooks and could not have been more professional and helpful. Strongly recommend.
Operator response
Hi Andrew, thank you so much for doing our beginner mountain bike tour! Pumped to hear that the guides made it so easy for you!
