Tours can always be a little daunting but our experience was 10 stars throughout the entirety. We actually wished there was more time! We toured 2 wineries & went to an olive oil/lavender farm where we were able to munch on some snacks. We even made custom charm necklaces at this stop! There was something for everyone on this tour. Expect scenic views, great wines, & a beautiful experience through and through. Rick offered a flexible pickup, was kind, and extremely knowledgeable about wines and the surrounding areas of Santa Ynez without being pushy at all. As a group of 3 girls we felt totally safe and I would 1000% recommend this tour to friends & family!! Thank you Rick for the great time & memories of a lifetime!

They continue to provide an excellent service and they have consistently created wonderful memories for my friends and family. In fact, on my most recent tour, my significant other (unbeknownst to me) worked behind-the-scenes with the owner Rick for an extra special surprise... a marriage proposal. It. Was. Perfect. Rick helped to curate the most amazing experience both scenery and wine wise! He even helped my partner book a local photographer to capture the moment. It was amazing. Thank you so much Rick! Please book with this company! Oh and, PS: I said yes. ;-)

Full disclosure we lucked out and it turned out we (my wife and I) were the only ones on the tour, it was on a Monday so I think things were slow for them. Tom picked us up at our hotel right on time and took us to 3 wineries. The first was smaller and the most remote (Cebada). It was smaller but the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Of course we bought a couple of bottles. The next winery was closer to Solvang (Brickbarn) and Tom gave us a tour of the facility, the vats etc... He's very knowledgeable about the winemaking process as well as the history of the area etc... Of course we bought a couple of bottles. The last winery was also a horse ranch (Bella Cavali). The host Jeff was great and very friendly. We got to tour the stables and say "Hi" to the horses. Of course we bought a couple of bottles! We then got dropped off back at our hotel and were pretty exhausted. It was a great experience and we highly recommend Stagecoach.

Once we booked, we were connected with Lindsay, who was incredibly responsive and always easy to reach. She answered every follow up question and made deposits and payments simple and stress free. It truly felt like we were working with people who love what they do and care about the Santa Barbara community. We even got to choose custom wording for our buses before and after the ceremony, which added such a fun and personal touch. On the wedding day, the drivers were friendly, upbeat, and so accommodating. They let us play whatever music we wanted and made sure all of our guests felt comfortable. I had also used Jump on the Bus for a bachelorette party and had the exact same smooth and enjoyable experience, which says so much about their consistency. I cannot recommend this company enough. Whether you are a future bride or someone planning an event, this is the team you want.

Having been on multiple wine tasting experiences through Paso Robles and Napa, I can confidently say that wine tasting with Paul completely reset the bar. Unlike typical hosts, Paul possesses an incredible wealth of knowledge regarding viticulture, microclimates, and the intricate art of winemaking. Yet, despite his massive expertise, he is entirely unpretentious. He shares his passion with genuine warmth, humility, and captivating storytelling. Because of his extensive background, Paul approaches wine through both a sommelier's lens and a historian's lens. You don't just taste the wine; you learn exactly why a particular micro-appellation or single-vineyard block behaves the way it does. I have never experienced that level of fascinating detail anywhere else. With most wine tours, you sit at a crowded bar or table and get a brief, standard introduction followed by a boxed lunch. With Paul, you are treated like royalty. We found ourselves enjoying exclusive, private tastings alongside the owners/winemakers, followed by a quiet, gourmet lunch all to ourselves. Having a one-on-one opportunity to ask questions and learn straight from the source is what truly elevates this experience to a luxury standard. If you want a flawlessly curated, VIP experience where every detail is handled, Appellation Wine Tours is the only choice. Thank you, Paul, for making our trip so unforgettable--we cannot wait to come back for another exceptional journey.
