Liz did an exceptional job of keeping us informed and entertained as we drove to the wineries. The barrel room tour of Wilson Creek Winery was a delight, led by Sinata crooner Motor City Mike who even sang for us. Our lunch was very good well timed prior to visiting the next two wineries.

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 145 reviews · from $235

Explore private Santa Ynez wineries with a small group, seated tastings, organic lunch, cheese, and hotel pickup from Santa Barbara.

“An exceptional small group (we were 8) private wine tour. Scott was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We went to three different wineries along the Chumash Hwy, where we enjoyed a private tasting. Stops included 5-6 tastings and at least an hour and a half stop with the wine maker or someone with the knowledge and experience to answer questions. I would highly recommend this tour, as it’s private, off the beaten path. No big signs and parking lots full of cars. A lovely way to spend an afternoon! Lunch was included and you get to enjoy it at a winery.”
