We are a couple of young backpackers travelling on the west coast, trying to experience typical activities in each city we travel to. We went to Santa Barbara to make a wineries tour, and we thought Wine Edventures would be the perfect stuff. Shawn, the owner of the company, told us by email that he would pick us up at... More

Our guide was very attentive and courteous. He was very knowledgeable of the area and wineries. I had been to 3 of the 4 wineries already so I was a little disappointed I didn't get to visit more that I didn't know. I especially enjoyed our first visit. Jerry at Sogno del Fiore (a wine club) made the day. He... More

We experienced a fun & educational afternoon. Shawn, our host, was knowledgeable, entertaining and had a great rapport with all of the wineries we visited. The tour is a great value and a great way to experience the wine country and its beautiful vistas. We also had the chance to do the "hops" tour of the local brewery which capped... More

We speant the day on a paid tour through the St. Ynez region of California. Our driver was very knowledgeable and very forthcoming with great wine tips. It was also a great way to meet new people. We were one of three couples that toured in a very comfortable van that took us through some spectacular views. Although the vineyards... More

As wine tour chauffeurs from the Barossa in Australia, we chose to be hosted through Santa Barbara/Santa Ynez wine country as guests on a private tour whilst visiting the USA recently. We had several problems with the website for Wine Edventures and hoped this did not reflect on our tour. There was certainly nothing to worry about and we had... More

We took our tour on January 5, 2013. It was our first experience in a wine tour, and it was wonderful! Our driver, Tara, was fun and knowledgeable! She gave us a history of wine tasting in general, and how it developed in California. She took us through the scenic route, a beautiful drive! The wineries and wine selection were... More

My husband and I have done a few wine tastings in Temecula and in Italy, so we were excited to do another one in a new place. We decided to book through Wine Edventures because the price seemed fair for 4 wineries. We had a little trouble getting in touch with them, but after a while got our tour booked... More

I've done the Wine Edventures tour twice now: once in 2004 with my mom, and the second tour in November with 7 girlfriends - we went to SB to run the marathon, and knew we'd need some wine and relaxation the day after the race! BOTH tours were consistently great - fun guide, delicious lunch, good selection of wineries. Plus... More

This was our first wine tasting tour. It was above our expectations even though we had nothing to compare it to. Shawn was knowledgeable, and took us behind the scenes at a few of the wineries. If you've never been wine tasting before, I would strongly recommend Wine Edventures.
