Extremely grateful to have gone on this tour! - Thank you Rick for the wonderfully curated tour! Each boutique vineyard stop was nothing short of amazing (great service, delicious wines, and plenty of smiles). The gourmet lunch sandwiches provided were delicious and filling. Rick made sure to check on how we’re doing from time to time to make sure we had everything we needed which was very nice! He even provided us plenty of water just to keep us from dehydration. Also, he’s a great and genuine conversationalist. A true class act!

Best Birthday! - Our group had such a fun day! Ryan was amazing. He picked us up right at the Amtrak station. We visited 3 wonderful wineries and had some delicious sandwiches at our second stop. We were lucky enough to catch some horses out taking a break at our last stop and got to spend some time petting them. All the locations were peaceful and beautiful and Ryan was the best host. All we had to do was enjoy the day. We got back to the train station maybe a half hour early so he recommended a bar/restaurant that was literally right across the street. We finished off our day there with some delicious frosé!

Enjoyable day - Mark was our guide. He was very knowledgeable about all of Santa Barbara, made sure we were comfortable at every location!! We left the winery choices up to him, and we were not disappointed. He dropped us off and escorted us in to a restaurant of his recommendation, again we were not disappointed! One of my favorite things about vacations is anything or anybody that makes our time “easy” and this wine tour nailed just that!!!

Extraordinary Wine Tour - Amazing service from the first point of contact with Rick for planning and scheduling, to the day of the tour with Tony, our guide. We wanted to do something special with our family to celebrate college grads and a birthday; and Rick put together an incredible itinerary for us. Tony was an absolute delight, providing historical insight as we drove from location to location, keeping us entertained with fun facts and light humor, giving an opportunity to make extra stops along the way for oil oil tasting and at the end of the tour, COFFEE!!! Wine Canyon Tours exceeded my expectations in every way! Their relationships with the wineries allowed my family to experience private tours at wineries that we would not have been able to experience otherwise. Thank you Rick and Tony for providing an extraordinary and memorable experience for my family! We cannot wait to plan our next outing with you!!

10/10 Would Do Again! - Tony made sure my group of eight girlfriends had an amazing time visiting three beautiful Santa Barbara area vineyards. He was knowledgeable about the area, took an insane amount of photos of us, and overall made sure we weren't worried about a single thing other than enjoying our time together. Book this package, ask for Tony, you'll have an excellent time.

Wonderful day in wine country - Rick was a great guide. He listened to what wines we liked and tailored an experience toward it, and even changed our minds on some wines.

World class service! - Look no further if you’re looking for an exceptional Santa Barbara wine tour with the best service! We were wanting to do wine tasting in Santa Barbara but due to Covid private tours were only available. We ended up going with wine canyon tours and couldn’t have chosen better! We started off the morning by getting picked up by the owner Rick and headed to a first winery called Bella Cavalli. All I can say is WOW. It was by far the most peaceful wine tasting I ever had and the grounds were beautiful. We had the pleasure of tasting wines alongside the winery owner. We were so impressed by his hospitality and such fine wines, we ended up purchasing a wine membership there. Rick then took us to two other amazing wineries with our own private tables and provided a delicious lunch for us. Rick was very knowledgeable in taking us to wineries that had wines up our alley. He was so kind to capture photos of us along the way with such scenic backdrops, so we have these memories to remember forever. You’re in good hands with Rick because he definitely knows the wine region and makes sure you have a fantastic time. Thank you Rick!! We hope you don’t retire soon because we will be back!

Run, don’t walk to book Wine Canyon Tours - Wow! We weren’t sure what to expect on our tour, but we were blown away. Rick took us to some amazing places, which were tailored to our wine preferences (we particularly loved Dragonette) and really showed us high end hospitality and professionalism. We seriously can’t wait to go to SB again and book another tour with him.
