Our group had a great time on this tour of Santa Ynez wine country. The day consisted of two tastings at vineyards with a chance to explore Los Olivos. Our guide Johannes made the experience by being exceptionally knowledgeable about the area and its wine-producing history. He also provided enriching recommendations/informations at each stop and somehow was able to pick us up at our obscurely-located airbnb. Overall a very professional experience compared to a wine tour I had done in the area years before with another agency.

Sunny our guide was the best part of the tour. VERY knowledgeable and knew the countryside inside and out. The wineries she chose were excellent and we were very happy with the whole experience. We would choose her again in a minute! Her driving was impeccable and her “sunny” attitude chased what few rain clouds had gathered on the horizon. 5 stars Sunny!

We love wine tours, lots of tasty wine and no driving. Sunny, our tour leader, was knowledgeable and very aware of our needs or potential needs. The first two wineries were excellent, Andrew Murray especially. For our third stop, the company had us go into Los Olivos for a tasting at Carhartt. This was a very commercial establishment. It killed the vibe of vineyards and open space. The group consensus was that another actual vineyard tasting would be better. Be aware that on weekends, lunch isn’t provided, though it is on weekdays. Lots of reasons/excuses as to why not. Sunny picked up lunch nearby (with our credit cards).
