I appreciated the hotel pickup and drop off and the drive was beautiful. If you're staying in Santa Barbara, be sure to check the weather for Santa Ynez - it ended up being about 10 degrees warmer up in the valley on the day we visited. We stopped at 3 wineries as well as a farm stand style olive oil place. At two of the three wineries, the winemaker themselves led our tasting. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to answer any questions we had. I'd be happy to attend another tour with Stagecoach in the future.

From the very beginning, Eric, the owner, was such a pleasure to work with. He was incredibly accommodating and flexible, especially since our Airbnb was located in a more mountainous area of Santa Barbara. Our driver, Tom, was absolutely fantastic. He was a great driver, extremely knowledgeable about the area and wineries, and shared so much interesting information throughout the day. Another great perk was that lunch was included, which made the day even more enjoyable and convenient. A great little unexpected touch was a stop at a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar stand between wineries. It was such a nice addition to the day and made the tour feel even more personalized. If you're looking for a stress free wine tour with wonderful communication, I highly recommend looking into Stagecoach Wine Tours. The pricing is great and it was truly an amazing experience. Will definitely be booking with them the next time I am in Santa Barbara/surrounding areas!

But if you nice want a customized journey through Santa Barbara's finest vineyards, this private tour is worth every penny.From the moment we were picked up, we knew we were going to be taken care of. The vehicle was pristine, incredibly comfortable, and filled with refreshments. Our guide was great, really knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly well-connected in the Santa Barbara wine community.Because this is a private agency, they cleared away all the usual hassle of wine tasting. Instead of standing at crowded bars, we were taken to exclusive, behind-the-scenes estate tours and private estate pavilions. We tasted incredible, limited-production Pinot Noirs and Syrahs that aren't even open to the general public, all while overlooking rolling hills. The highlight was an artisanal lunch served alfresco on a private vineyard terrace, perfectly paired with library vintage wines. The pacing of the entire day was awesome we never felt rushed, yet everything moved with a good steady pace. The level of personalized, concierge-style service we received was unmatched. They handled every detail, tracked our preferences, and even arranged for our case purchases to be seamlessly shipped directly to our home. This wasn't just a wine tasting trip; it was an unforgettable, five-star luxury experience. We will absolutely be booking again next year!

This is one of the BEST tours I've ever done, and I've done a lot of them!…read more William was friendly, helpful, and overall just a really great guide. We were staying in Solvang so saved $10 per person by meeting at the starting point, Brander Vineyards (vs taking the van from SB), and he sent me info on what time to get there and where to park ahead of time. There was no time wasted on this tour. We got a quick info session on how to use the e-bikes - VERY easy! - and then got started. The 16-ish mile ride was easy on the e-bikes; the one thing I will say is that I'm grateful everyone on our tour chose them because it definitely would have been different if there had been people utilizing regular bikes on the uphill climbs. We stopped for rests and photos several times, including at a mini horse farm! My 17-year-old was with me and when we made our last stop at the lavender farm William grabbed him a lavender lemonade since he obviously couldn't partake in the wine tastings. Great service! Speaking of wine tastings, there were two included, and we also got some great souvenir water bottles with the brand name on them! The lunch - caprese-style sandwiches, side salad, and charcuterie boards - was also awesome. We also had an olive oil and balsamic vinegar tasting toward the end, which was a really neat touch :) I can't say enough good things about this tour, especially for the price we paid. I did a tour in Sonoma last year that was more expensive and didn't include any wine tastings at all, and while I had a great time on that tour regardless, this one was above and beyond and I would do it again in a heartbeat!!!

If you're doing a food tour and you're walking through the city, you should definitely have some…read morehands sanitizer or have spots along the way, picked out to be regularly washing your hands. You also should refrain from touching people's plates and cups as you discuss and show them the food items. I understand it's a food tour, but especially when you don't have clean hands, it's highly unsanitary! It's also a good idea to not greet dogs and let them lick all over you ... your hands.... your arms AND your face while you're interacting with people who are eating food, bringing them food from the restaurant & leading a tour. It's a good idea to give people space after you give them the information about the tour and the food and the art and let them socialize with the people that they came with. We should not have experience the person who is giving the tour or learning how to give a tourist next to you constantly asking you questions about what you're eating, what you're trying, where you're from or other questions that are really irrelevant .. it is pretty annoying & doesn't allow you to enjoy the experience fully. It's not a good idea to take shortcuts, because it's easier for you as the tour guide. One of our group members ate meat. The other 2 are vegetarians, but to keep it simple or make it easier. She was repeatedly offered vegetarian options and not given the opportunity to try the meat options along the tour. This was frustrating as you were very clear when setting up the tour, what the food restrictions were, we reminded them again when we got to the beginning of the tour and also reminded along the tour. How often will we need to say it in order to get the full experience. Although the tour guide and her trainee were very nice & social, it is not likely not an experience we'll do again.
