Trolley Ride
The trolley ride is a great activity either in the beginning or later part of your Santa Barbra adventure. If it's your first time, it's good to see the lay of the land and see all the interesting places, historical or trivial facts that would leave you delighted and would want to visit during your stay or on the next trip. Although it's my second trip to Santa Barbara, I missed out on the outskirts like East Beach and Montecito area. Trolley adventure was fun, entertaining at best. I took forever to do the review that I forgot the name of our tour guide, Charles (Chuck) is it? He said Dick was his name if we did not enjoy the tour. I recommend this for everyone, regardless if they just want to relax or sample the ocean breeze from the comfort of the trolley ride or just get entertained for an hour.

Best day!
Be prepared to make good friends! Funny how you crack open a bottle of wine and the conversation just starts to flow... even with strangers. The most relaxing afternoon my daughter and I ha e spent this vacation! Wines were wonderful! All the wineries accommodated taste preferences. So if you are not fond of reds you can get all whites! Carrington our host/driver was amazing!

Get the ebike, it lets you really enjoy this relaxing day.
Beautifully perfect day. I love all the knowledge about the area from the olive trees to the vineyard crews. Lunch was fresh and paired perfectly with the wines we had learned about. The olive oils were the best I've tasted. It may have been the environment. 🫒 We bike regularly. We could have done it without the ebike, but it was nice to relax and focus on the countryside.

Kayaking with Wildlife
We went on the 11 am tour, and the weather was still a little cool and overcast, which is what we prefer. If you want a lot of sun for your tour, try later in the afternoon. The tour itself was great. Ryan was our guide and he obviously has a passion, not only for water sports and kayaking, but also local history and wildlife education. We really enjoyed the whole tour!
