Our Big Grape Bus! Look for it when exploring Santa Barbara!

By far our most popular tour—the Daily Deluxe Excursion is our group tour that picks up at most local Santa Barbara hotels and takes you up to wine country for a guided tour.   This tour offers a broad overview of Santa Barbara’s wine country, visiting wineries across the valley.  You’ll learn about the viticulture of the area, the basics of wine production and “proper” tasting techniques.  Get a first hand look at some of our award-winning wineries and vineyards with a knowledgeable tour guide to lead the way!   

We aren’t a shuttle service that just drops you off at each winery – you will have a guide dedicated to your group that is there to make sure you enjoy your day and gain some knowledge that you can use going forward in purchasing or drinking wine.   You’ll take part in interactive tasting demonstrations and have a chance to learn about the wines and about production.
