Jason was very...

Published on Sep, 2024

Jason was very accommodating, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about Santa Barbara. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Being allowed to take our time at each stop and take in the beautiful Santa Barbara scenery made the tour a delight. This was our first time visiting the city and it was only a planned day-trip. After the tour and discovery so much, we know we must return. THANK YOU for exceeding our expectations!

Great customer service

Published on Aug, 2024

I wrote a review yesterday that was not favorable and I did not realize that this company was going to make an exception for me. My mistake I should have waited but I am going through an emotional time and jumped the gun. They are VERY accommodating and I can't wait till Nov to take the tour. Thanks for your understanding. Stand up company....

Great day with everything in it

Published on Jun, 2024

What a fantastic day. Only had one full day in Santa Barbara and so glad I spent it with Gerry on the tour. He was a great guide who took us to all the best spots and beautiful views. Not only informative but also provided us with a really relaxing and fun day with a great lunch. Well worth it and would highly recommend the tour to anyone.

Fantastic experience from start to finish!
