Private Sidecar Winery Tour through Santa Barbara

Overview

We have transformed the standard motorcycle sidecar to accommodate two passengers and now we have the world’s first and only fleet of tandem sidecars.

Whether you’re looking for a new fun activity or just itching to ride the vines in style, our ultimate goal is to provide our guests a unique, immersive, and intimate way to get to know this beautiful wine region the way we know best – with elegance, class, and a bit of swagger.

So, grab your loved ones and friends, buckle up, and let’s ride!

We are contracted with a couple different locations in the area and we will be visiting 2 of those tasting rooms on this tour.

The tour was very disappointing since it was not what it was described to be. You will NOT be riding through the vines as was stated in the listing, the tour is strictly inside the city. You will NOT go to 3 wine rooms as was stated in the listing. I would not take this tour or any affiliated tours through this company again.

I've used TripAdvisor many times for many years, in different cities, and I haven't been disappointed (until now) with TripAdvisor. Let's begin.. I was planning a Mother's Day event on May 12, 2024, in Santa Barbara for two wonderful mothers. I was searching TripAdvisor (as I do for all of my trips), and I saw that they offered a Sidecar winery tour. I had used TripAdvisor for a Sidecar ride in Napa Valley. It was fantastic. No issues. While reading the reviews about Sidecar in Santa Barbara, it was a 50/50 positive/negative reviews. Due to limited activities in Santa Barbara on a Sunday, I decided that I would take a chance, and hopefully, I would be able to give a good review. Boy, was I wrong ! Unfortunately, I have to agree with the negative reviews. Here's my experience with Santa Barbara Sidecar. The day before the schedule ride, I received a text message from Sidecar company. I thought that it was for confirmation. I was so wrong. I text basically ,said that they had drivers call out sick, so they didn't have enough drivers to accommodate my 12:00 appointment. They wanted to know what, day, and time would I like to reschedule. I told them that I was only in town for one day. Please refund my money. I haven't received any refund, nor did they respond to my text. TripAdvisor should have dropped this Santa Barbara Sidecar company from their website a long time ago due to many negative reviews. Now , I have to figure out how to get my $300 + dollars back. Don't take a chance like I did if you don't want to get scammed by Santa Barbara Sidecar company. Believe the negative reviews.

They literally cancelled on us the night before we were due to go on the tour and still waiting for my refund...!!!!! Not good enough.
