For someone who doesn't drink much I had an amazing experience. I had a group of 9. The owner AJ was very accommodating and made the whole process smooth and easy. The drivers were awesome and the wineries were great. I gave the drink tickets I couldn't finish so my friends could drink more. The sidecar experience made it a perfect day. Highly recommend and would totally do it again.

1000/10! Loved Jose “Goose” and will be booking again in the future - and bringing friends! Well planned wine tour visiting some great locations, super fun wheels, and just an overall great experience. Much preferred over a stuffy bus or limousine. They took care of us at each location whether it was a full tasting, a behind the scenes tour, or a full complimentary bottle of wine.

This is very close to a five-star rating. Our driver, David, was wonderful! A Santa Barbara native, he was a great guide! The sidecar is a hoot and a really fun way to tour the city. My boyfriend and I had a blast. Minor cons - Website is full of broken links. Had to call the make sure the tour existed and to make the reservation. Our city tour description included a wine tasting at the end, according the description on the site. However, our driver didn't know anything about that and neither did his contact at the "home office." To his credit, David made sure we got the flight that was promised. Overall, it's a great concept and I would highly recommend. Glitches seem to be part of growing pains of a new company. Hopefully, they will resolve themselves quickly.

This was a surprise anniversary present for my husband who loves motorcycles and we both love wine! What a crazy and fantastic way to visit wineries! John was a great host/driver and made our experience informative, fun and safe. The wineries were beautiful, tastings were great and we had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. I highly recommend this tour for a special and memorable occasion. “Sidecar”note: don’t wear a skirt. I flashed half of Temecula! 😂
