Santa Barbara

Santa Barbara, California

Located just 90 miles north of Los Angeles, Santa Barbara is a world apart, and offers a soothing realm of distinct and subtle pleasures, and an intoxicating appeal that arises from the convergence of elements found perhaps nowhere else in the world. Santa Barbara is a city of white-washed buildings with red tile roofs tucked between the mountains and the sea, laid back Santa Barbara resonates with an irresistibly sensuous allure. Downtown Santa Barbara offers myriad attractions and historical sites for visitors of all ages to explore. Rich in reminders of its colorful past, Santa Barbara Downtown is a mix of historic adobes and outdoor courtyards, with a display of contemporary sculpture set among the Mediterranean architecture.

Santa Ynez Valley

California

The picturesque Santa Ynez Valley encompasses six communities clustered closely together like wine grapes. From the charming, tiny gem of rural Ballard, the bustling gateway city of Buellton, the vintage western town of Los Alamos, the arts-influenced wine-infused town of Los Olivos and the turn-of-the-20th-century township of Santa Ynez, to the northern European atmosphere of the city of Solvang founded by Danish-Americans in 1911, it’s relaxing and refreshing to meander and experience them all. Just two hours up the coast from Los Angeles, it feels like a world away with endless possibilities.

Located in the beautiful coastal mountains of central California, lies the Los Padres National Forest encompassing nearly two million acres. Stretching almost 220 miles from the Carmel Valley area to the western edge of Los Angeles County, the forest provides the scenic backdrop for many communities including Big Sur, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ojai. While many of the campgrounds and picnic areas are easily reached by vehicle, much of the forest is remote and unroaded, with excellent opportunities for primitive backcountry recreation.

The winery was nice but...

The winery was nice but would have loved to walk the vineyards. We enjoyed the atmosphere as we tasted the five wine samples.

Best Wine Tasting Experience

I had such a wonderful time on this tour! A few of my friends and family went on this tour for my birthday and we had the best time! We had the pleasure of touring with Galina and she was exceptional! She was very knowledgeable and customized the tour to fit our group’s need. She made our first time in Santa Barbara one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. I highly recommend!

Santa Barbara wine and scenery

Outstanding trip, not just wine tasting but entire trip! We were picked up by our guide promptly and heading from north Hollywood to Vincent Winery. Journey was scenic and guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area. The winery was a real treat despite not being able to tour inside due to Covid restrictions. After the tasting, we headed to los Olivos fir lunch ( super cute village and delicious meal at Nella’s). Santa Barbara stop was also special, beautiful Spanish architecture! Great day!
