West Coast sister time! - The bike tour was amazing, perfect day even w a small amount of haze. I loved the ride and information our tour guide, Blaze. He gave us time to look around, ask lots of Qs, and make small talk. Loved it and would definitely go again!

A Perfect Way to See Santa Barbara – Fun, Scenic, and Unforgettable! - This tour was an absolute blast from start to finish—I can’t recommend it enough! The weather was breezy and beautiful, and the route took us through some of the most scenic spots in Santa Barbara. Every stop came with a fun story or interesting local fact, adding so much personality to the ride.
The charm of the area reminded me a bit of Charleston, SC—laid-back, picturesque, and full of character. As someone who loves biking, just being out on an electric bike was already a highlight, but the overall experience elevated it even more.
Our guides were fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. They made us feel comfortable and added a lot of fun to the day. I’d do this again in a heartbeat!

Experiencing Santa Barbara on an e-bike is a must do! - Wonderful experience. Sergio was thoughtful and enthusiastic about showing us a city he loves. Highly recommended! E-bikes make it so easy for all fitness levels and the city of Santa Barbara is easy to navigate on a bike.
Must do on a sunny day!

Great tour with John! - This was super fun and well worth the money. It turned out to be just me and my partner with John leading the tour. He was really well informed, easy going, and just pleasant to be around. Humble guy who genuinely seemed to want to show us a fun time. Highly recommend. My only feedback would be that I would have been more comfortable on a mountain type bike versus a beach cruiser. This is a very easy tour and requires little effort. The e bike can do most of the work for you. Great fun all around. Thanks, John!

Highly recommend! - My husband surprised me with an anniversary trip to Santa Barbara. Our first day was the bike ride of this fair city. Sergio was our guide. He was fantastic! He made sure we were comfortable riding and were safe. He has incredible enthusiasm for this city and passed along interesting information about it. The views were amazing and the pace was perfect. We highly recommend this company! Thanks Sergio!

Great tour of Santa Barbara - We were fortunate to end up with a "private" tour - the weather had been rainy and chilly that morning and the other riders canceled. The electric bikes were awesome. Our guide (Bryce) was fantastic with all aspects of the tour (from fitting and adjusting the bikes, giving a great tour route, and detailed explanations of the various sites). I highly recommend taking this tour.

Great Views and Easy Bike Ride - We had such a great experience on our Santa Barbara e-bike tour! The ride was smooth, scenic, and easy enough for my parents, who are both in their mid-sixties and trying e-bikes for the first time. Our guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the tour. It was the perfect way to explore the area and enjoy the beautiful views. Highly recommend!

Electric power bike tour - It was a lovely tour of the city and beach. A great introduction with a little exercise but power boost on the small hills. Simply lovely. I had never ridden an electric bike before and it was both fun and honestly educational. I see why they are popular and I see why Santa Barbara is so popular too!!!
