Great wineries. Incredible views of Santa Ynez Valley. We were so lucky to land Suzanne (aka Sunny) as a tour guide. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for both wine and Santa Barbara county was unstoppable! She went out of her way to ensure everyone was accommodated throughout the day. She is fun, knowledgeable, and quite patient. The tour was beautiful. The wineries were each unique from each other and offered a wonderful taste of the Santa Barbara Wine region.

The September 17, 2021, tour, left us disappointed. Only the first of the three wineries that day were memorable. The first was next to its vineyard, with drinkable wines, and very friendly servers. The next two were forgettable: one a winery and one a downtown tasting room, the wine and atmosphere at the latter two venues were lacking. Out of control of the organizers...the tour included a very loudly talking family of seven, whose conversations droned on through the entire tour using it seemed in very sentence the words "Oh my God!!" and "like". They just would not shut up! The driver said little to describe the area or wineries as we assume he had difficulty talking over the seven...think he just gave up. The drive to to wineries was beautiful and for us was the high point of the tour.

We were very fortunate to have two other couples on the trip who were a blast. Our driver Suzanne was tremendous and knows her wine.
