My two brothers and I spent the long Thanksgiving weekend in Solvang and decided to end our trip with an ATV tour in the Santa Barbara mountains before heading back to L.A. Best decision ever! Although getting to the meeting point was a bit scary as we drove 15 mph through winding roads next to steep cliffs, the views were nice and the ATV experience was totally worth it! We gave ourselves plenty of time to get lost and it took us about 1.5 hours to get to the checkpoint. Luckily Google Maps was on the entire time and we even had an hour to kill on top of the mountain before our 12:30pm appointment. (Also had screenshots of the directions in case we lost service). Upon arrival, we met with the two girls who were wearing face masks and face shields so we felt safe. They had all the sanitizing stuff. They checked us all in, gave us each a mesh covering for our head, pairs of gloves, goggles and helmets. They offered different insurance plans (just like a rental car company), each ranging in price. Then, they walked us over to the ATVs where Jorge was our tour guide. He asked us if we've ever rode before and taught us how to use the automatic ATVs and made us feel comfortable and safe. (Throttle was on the right handle bar and brakes on the left. Second brake was a foot pedal). We drove on wide and narrow trails, over some fun rocky areas, kicking up lots of dust, and he took photos of us the entire time. This was a great family bonding experience and we're all still talking about how fun it was and want to do it again. Know Before You Go: It gets dusty so wear clothes and closed toe shoes that you're ok getting dirty. Give yourself plenty of time to drive to the location because the last thing you want to do is rush through the scary mountain roads. 10/10 would definitely do this again! read more

WARNING We saw all the awesome reviews from this place and thought to give it a shot. My wife has been wanting to go ATV'ing awhile, we were staying in Santa Barbara for the weekend so the timing was perfect. We live almost 2 1/2 hours away from the location (Santa Barbara)but gave ourselves a 40 minute cushion before our reservation. We past through 2 counties and caught anADDITIONAL hour of traffic on the way and completely missed our reservation. Now before your reservation you sign a agreement with a reschedule disclosure attached. We didn't make the appointment, didn't reschedule and we were forced to forfeit our prepaid $250 for two riders. This is an online business so you won't be able to talk with a single soul. I reach out via email, and was surprised how quickly they responded in NOT caring about helping me with my issue. Bottom line; no they didn't do anything wrong by not helping, but they could care less about having satisfied customers or anything outside of collecting our money. So if you're planning on going with this company then please be on time cause you'll not be shown any leniency, or to cough up an additional 40% of your initial cost PER PERSON just to reschedule. read more

Enjoy The Mountain - Email response from Enjoy The Mountain - ATV Rentals/Tours Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

We really enjoyed our first time riding. It was a great social distance friendly activity. They had Lysol spray, wipes, sanitizer and disposal face/head coverings to wear under the helmet. Really like how the waivers are done online and getting them done beforehand made check in very easy. You definitely need to plan your travel time getting to the meet up location. It's a mountain and the road is narrow so you have to plan for driving slower going up. We stayed in Solvang and it took us a little over an hour to get there. We did the beginners ride for 2 hours and it was very fun. Our guide, Jorge, was excellent. He gave us clear directions on how to operate the ATVs and took us up the trail and helped us when we got to narrow paths. He was very patient with us and took tons of great pictures of us. It was a super fun way to spend the morning. Great activity to do with older teens/young adults. read more

You have to do this! You will have the most amazingly fun time! Book your appointment now as they are sold out months in advance and once you ride with them you will understand why. Jorge was amazing and his confidence in me allowed me to ride like a pro! This is truly an exclusive event, as if it is just your party and your guide. The views were stunning and it was delightful to get into the back side of the los Padres national forest. Riding straight above Montecito gave you a birdseye view into the neighborhoods and out to the ocean. Be sure and plan on staying for the rest of the day as there are great hiking trails and picnic spots with unparalleled views. We are so blessed to live in such a beautiful part of the country. Thank you Jorge for guiding us and making the experience over the top FUN and exhilarating. Can't wait till next time! read more

I surprised my girlfriend with a 2 hour ATV ride for our one year anniversary. And man, was it a blast! Jorge was our guide and he was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Enjoy the Mountain for anyone looking for an adrenaline rush and unique group activity. A few things I would like to mention to have a smooth and wonderful experience like we did: - Sign your waivers online ahead of time - Verify the exact location of the meetup point and lookup directions before you go up the mountain (you will likely lose service halfway up) - Dress accordingly. We wore long pants, jackets, and gym shoes. (and bring clothes and shoes to change into after since you will be getting dirty!) - Keep water in your car so you won't be thirsty going back down the mountain! - Don't be afraid, these guys know what they're doing!! Also, if you can, book on a day with good weather and clear skies. The only issue we had was that we had gone on a foggy, rainy day and it was a challenge driving up the mountain to get to the meeting point. We still had a great time regardless of the weather! We had an unforgettable experience and are looking forward to doing this again soon! read more

I booked the one hour quad session for my boyfriend and I last weekend. While riding the quads was a good time, the customer service once we got there was one of the worst experiences of my life. To be clear, I paid for this months before our appointment.. Within those few months, I lost my wallet. When we got to the meeting point, they wanted my same card number for incidentals, to which I told them I had a new debit card because the other one was lost after booking and the session but that it was for the same bank account. The manager was so rude to us, while in turn calling me a liar about losing my wallet and saying "well then I'm trusting you that this debit card will actually work" that we were tempted to leave before even riding the quads. It made the entire experience very uncomfortable. The ride was fun, but we will not be booking again with them. read more

I can't say enough about my adventure with Enjoy The Mountain and our ride with Jorge. First and foremost Jorge is the BEST ever. We had such an amazing ride! I booked this on a whim and this memory will last us forever. Thank you and I will be booking for additional friends to join me! If I could give more stars for price and adventure I would!! Thanks for providing everything needed and our photos. Penny read more

Found this company on Yelp in preparation for a weekend trip up to Santa Barbara. I was a little worried that the people might not show because it seemed like a small website and company, but there were no issues with timing at all. Overall, it was a pretty fun experience! Our guide was already there when we arrived, taking another group of people out on the mountain. He was professional and helpful, but it would have been nice to get off the ATVs for a few minutes near the top to get some nice views of the valleys below. He was more than happy to take pictures for us, and he definitely seemed to know his way around the trails in Santa Barbara. The ATVs that we used were pretty new, and we didn't have any mechanical issues at all. They were a little muddy from the previous group that went out, but it wasn't anything too bad. You have the option of getting a single person ATV, or having 2 riders on 1 ATV. If you really don't want to be in charge of driving, I guess you could book the double occupant ATV, but if you're going to go, you might as well drive on your own right? All their ATVs are automatic, so it's literally just a gas and go type of deal. Super easy to use. If you can ride a tricycle, you can ride an ATV. After booking the trip online, I got a lot of information on when and where to meet via email. The company does a good job of giving you that information before your trip. A little on the expensive side if you ask me, but if you're looking for a fun little activity to do in the area, I would recommend these guys! read more

Enjoy The Mountain - Chillin on an atv in the mountains! - ATV Rentals/Tours Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Amazing experience in Santa Barbara! Jorge was awesome...we couldn't have asked for a better guide! Being my first time riding an ATV, I was a bit nervous riding up the mountain...but Jorge's calm and professional demeanor put me at ease. I would definitely do it again! Tips: You will get dirty...it is highly recommended to wear pants and a long sleeved shirt. Also, if you are afraid of heights or get motion sickness this is not the place for you. If you will be riding for long take a backpack for water etc. The location is a bit tough to find so make sure to allow yourself enough time for travel. Happy trails! :-) read more

Had a wonderful time with Nick, our guide! He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the mountain and can put any fears you have to rest. After walking us through the basics, he made sure we were comfortable on the ATV before pressing on. Since we were a small group, we ended up going to the top of the mountain during our hour-long ride. The previous group had gotten back a little later, but Nick made sure we made up the time and since we rode the double, he made sure that we both had a chance to drive and that we all felt safe and comfortable while enjoying ourselves. Would DEFINITELY recommend this to anyone looking for an adventure off the beaten path! Only hiccup would be finding the meeting point (it's up in the mountains, not in downtown SB) and since we didn't have cell phone service there, it was hard to figure out if we were in the right spot, or if we had missed the group (we were a few mins late..) read more

I'm so glad I stumbled upon Enjoy The Mountain while planning my birthday weekend. Nick was our tour guide and he was more than fantastic. He called me few minutes before our appointment just to make sure 1. We were on our way, and 2. We didn't get lost. As soon as we arrived he was very friendly and and ready to get us on our adventure. At first I was worried that having a tour guide would've made it less fun, but honestly, Nick enhanced our experience through some of the stories he told us on our few small breaks. This overall experience was super fun! I highly recommend Enjoy The Mountain for anyone who wants a real adventure! Just a few tips: 1. Sign your waivers ahead of time! The reception up there is spotty, and you'll waste lots of time waiting to get enough signal to access the waivers online. 2. Take screenshots of confirmation email they send you when you finish the waiver. That way when you arrive, you won't be trying to load your email with the half bar of reception you get. 3. Plan to arrive 30min - 1 hour early. The path there is kind of tricky, and it's very easy to take the wrong turn and waste time. Follow the directions they send to your email. 4. You WILL get dirty. Take long pants, and old shoes. My boyfriend and I took a change of clothes for afterwards so we wouldn't get back in our car with all the mud and dirt on us. 5. Have fun! read more

We went today for my birthday with Nick. The tour was amazing!!! Nick was a very professional, friendly and fun guide. We took our 8 year old daughter with us and she rode by herself! Nick made us feel very comfortable about her safety. He also showed us a snake and fossils on the way up, which made our trip even more special and fun:) Thank you so much, Nick, for an unforgettable birthday tour!!!!!!!!! read more

Enjoy The Mountain - Birthday tour - ATV Rentals/Tours Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

It is a nice experience because you get a nice view during the ATV ride, but in 1 hour it feels like time flies. The views don't last too long because then you have to get back to the starting point due to renting out hourly periods. The worst part for me was the crazy drive just to get to the Meet Location. I recommend you get your own ATV's and plan your own trips. $230 for two people isn't that bad tho I have to admit. read more

I'm so happy that we decided to go atving during a last minute getaway for the weekend to Santa Barbara!! Nick was our guide and he was so wonderful.. Highly recommend booking this tour. We opted for the hour session which was perfect for us. Make sure to fill out the waiver before you get there and print out a copy. Connection up there is very iffy. I was really scared riding but Nick was very patient. I did not feel rushed during the tour at all. He let me go at my pace (even though it's a snails pace) lol. He would stop and take pictures for us and let us stop at the scenic routes. I really appreciated that he could tell my husband wanted to go faster than the pace I was going and took him up the mountain for an additional 10 mins. I'd highly recommend doing this tour if you're looking for something fun to do in santa Barbara. read more

We had an amazing tour with Nick! He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the mountains and wildlife. This dude breathes the mountain! We loved the tour. He took some awesome photos for us. Very warm and personable tour guide, we would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. As long as you're not a bonehead, safety is not a concern. ATV and provided equipment was all up to par. Big thanks to Nick again for an amazing tour. Wildlife spotted: Lizard (Nick tried to catch it), Baby Squirrel, and Deer (about six feet from us, very cool) read more

Had a great Time. Showed up early and they were ready for us. All the paperwork and waivers are done online...so no fuss there. The guide was Jorge...(owner I am guessing from reading all these other reviews?. He was a cool dude. Gave us some simple instructions and away we went. We did the one hour ride. My self and two boys. The terrain was not easy nor was it over our heads....perfect for the 3 of us. We had a great time! read more

We met with Nick for the tour. He is a great tour guide. He is fun, creative, friendly, and professional. It was our first time and we came out as pros. I did like that we were able to stop at the top to take pictures and listen to nature with breathtaking views. We got the 2 hour tour and it was an incredible experience. We had a blast riding the ATVs. We will be back! Since we were famished he recommended that we go to Cold Spring Tavern which is on the way back. It was a great recommendation. Tri tip sandwich was exquisite! read more

Had a great time quad biking in Santa Barbara this morning. We were lucky as there was only myself and my friend booked so it felt like we had our own private trip with our awesome guide. The views were spectacular and direction about how to use the quad bikes was really straight forward. It was also great to feel so safe about our ability. I definitely didn't feel pressured to do anything I didn't feel comfortable doing. If you're in Santa Barbara, I'd definitely recommend giving it a go. I'd do it again! read more

You can't call these guys. I was trying to book a group for Santa Barbara, but the website didn't show it as an option at all. When I Facebook messengered them, they just said there are no reservations at this time. I never put in any date and it didn't show up as an option, so all I wanted to know is if at the SB location they even do group tours. I could not get a straight answer from whoever was replying. GET A TELEPHONE, PLEASE!! LOL So frustrating! I will try somewhere else. Terrible customer service. read more

We went today for a 1 hour ATV through the mountains with Tim as our guide and it was the best!!! We went up the trails of the Santa Ynez Mountains and the ride was not easy but also not crazy challenging for all you first time riders. No need to be afraid, the guides go at whatever pace you are comfortable with. The ATV's are really easy to operate too. Tim was a great guide and took tons of pictures for us and was really engaging and showing us all the beauty in the mountains. It was incredibly serene and just so much untouched gorgeous land in the Los Padres National Forest. I highly suggest it if you are in Santa Barbara and looking for an adrenaline rush :) It was only 25 minutes to get back to our hotel in downtown. read more

I took my boyfriend for his birthday. We did the ATV for an hour. If your a beginner and may be going slow I recommend getting 2 hours but for us the 1 hour was perfect. Arrive early to ensure you get there on time as we were a bit skeptical if we were going the correct way. The service goes in and out so I would recommend you have the directions saved just to be safe. Also, sign the wavier ahead of time bc my boyfriend forgot to and we were sitting there for a bit trying to get service so the info can get submitted to take off. Maybe, they will get some printed out so this wouldn't be a problem and you can get started right away! Tim was an amazing tour guide! He was very professional and very helpful through this whole process. He made a couple stops so that we could get a few pictures and enjoy the view, as we were high up. He definitely knew his way around. Overall, this was a great experience and I highly recommend it. We want to come back with a group of friends sometime soon! read more

Enjoyed an hour long trip through the Los Padres Mountains with my mother. We each had our own 4 wheeler/ATV. All the equipment was in great shape. Our guide, Jorge, was amazing, patient and knowledgeable. Sylvie was also very helpful in getting us coordinated and started with our gear. The trail was gorgeous. There were incredible views from the top of Los Padres Mountains. Jorge knew the best places to stop to take scenic photos of us and later emailed them to us. We both felt completely safe & enjoyed the experience. I can't wait to return for more!!! read more

It really is as good as it gets. Due to the Santa Barbara fire, our appointment had to be cancelled. It was a bummer because we made shirts and everything and wanted to surprise our bachelorette with it. BUT Jorge provided another option and had Nick pick us up, drive us 2 hours away to their Santa Clarita location and drive us back in time for our spa appointments. This was scheduled the night before and Nick came promptly at 7am the next day. Talk about being there for your clients. These guys went above and beyond to make sure our experience was great even though the roadblocks were out of their control. We had a fantastic time and even though Nick and Jeff (our tour guide) seemed a little nervous about driving with a bunch of Asian women, we finished the tour unscathed and happy campers. These guys are legit and really care about their business. So glad we got to know them. Gotta give more props to Nick though. He played all the jams we knew and loved in the four hours we were in the car with him. It was amazing. read more

2nd time riding with them (1hr tours) first time in March with Tim and this weekend with friends and we rode with Nick.

They are very accommodating to everyone's ridding styles. Clean equipment , nice ATVs . Beautiful scenery. Sylvia in the office is awesome! Definitely coming back for 2 hour tour .

This is the place to go if you want to experience the Santa Barbara mountain trails and excellent views via ATV! Our guide; Jorge, was very respectful, fun, and ensured our safety was of the utmost importance. We didn't have much experience with ATV's so the confidence of having him around was an excellent feeling. As for the ride, Jorge leads the pack and even takes pictures during the ride. When there is a reason to proceed with caution, he indicates it to have us slow down accordingly. I could go on but for the sake of space and readers sanity, I'll finish this with simply stating that if you want to rent ATV's this is the place to do it. You'll encounter extremely helpful people who have your best interest in mind. Great company I hope they're around for a long time to come! read more

This adventure was above and beyond, beginning with how great our guide, Nick is. He went the extra mile for us from the get go, he waited very patiently for our arrival since we arrived late, nevertheless we were missing a waiver and he went beyond to solve the issue, he's an amazing guide and person. Thanks Nick, you represent how great your company and adventure is. read more

Stop everything you're doing and book an ATV Adventure with Nick. After some confusion with the waiver, these guys found a solution and treated us like humans and not tourists. Nick was a fantastic guide and allowed us to ride fast enough to really enjoy the adventure, but not too fast where we'd all fall off a cliff. He was thoughtful, and professional, offered to take pics, and ensured we all had a great time. I can't speak about any of the other guides, but Nick is a great frontman for the company and my only regret is not booking a longer tour!! read more

We had the best time today. We've done several ATV tours at other places (Cabo, Arizona, etc)and this was by far the best. The equipment was high quality, the tour we had was 1 on 1 (rather than being the 10th person behind the guide), the views were unbelievable. It was like something out of LOTR. Highly recommend. Tim was great, knew what he was doing, and left everything open ended. Asked how frequently we wanted to stop, where we wanted to go, took photos, gave some history, and in general showed us a great time!! You won't regret shelling out the money to take this tour. It was an amazing time. read more

AMAZING. wish we could have booked Jorge for the day. Myself and bf rented 1hr atvs each outside Santa Barbara. First day we were to meet there was a mix up of location but Jorge made it up to us by giving us an extra half hour for free. Our first time on atv and he was amazing with us. Especially me. I was terrified. He put me at ease and made sure the entire time I felt comfortable. Giving me the thumbs up as we went along to boost my confidence. The views were outstanding. He stopped along the route and took pics of us. It was a great ending to our trip and will def organize a repeat with Jorge again if we are around that location again. I am seriously recommending to friends and family. Do yourself a favor and go for it. What an experience to have a guide to ourselves and enjoy the views. read more

We've been on other ATV tours before and hands down, Nick is one of the best tour guides we've encountered. He's full of energy and super down to earth. We could tell he enjoys what he does and cares about his riders having a great time and truly "enjoying the mountain." read more

My boyfriend and I are from the east coast, and we've never gone atv driving. We've never even been to California! So this trip was a first time for everything and it was amazing!!! Nick is the sweetest and makes you feel so comfortable during your trip. If your a newbie to atv driving, it'll feel nerve wrecking because you do have to adjust to the machine but you'll learn quick. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend it! read more

Most AMAZING adventure! My boyfriend and I did the 2 hour tour each on single quads with Travis and it exceeded our expectations!

We are definitely recommending to all of our friends! read more

If you're in the Santa Barbara area, this ATV tour is a must! Nick was our tour guide. For only being on the job for 2 1/2 mos, Nick really knew his stuff. He was very knowledgeable and patient.

As an added bonus, Nick told us to stop by Cold Springs Tavern for their tri-tip sandwiches. They were delicious! read more
