Awesome time! - This was great. It starts off with a beautiful bike ride to Solvang and then through the Vineyards. We stopped at a Lavender farm. Then came back to the meeting point where we had an olive oil tasting. Then a wonderful picnic lunch with wine, then went to a tasting after that. We had the best weather so this was a perfect afternoon out to celebrate our Anniversary. William is awesome and knows a lot about the area and the wine.

Electric bike wine tour - William was a great host, very knowledgeable about wine, the area and all the vineyards and winemakers. He was really helpful with the electric bikes that he provided and made sure we were safe on the roads. The lunch he provided was delicious and it was great being out in the fresh air and meeting another couple on the tour - good chat! We highly recommend this wine tour.

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.

Great and Fun Way to Spend the Day! - Beautiful location that is comfortably explored on the e-bikes. Our guide William was very well versed on the area, the vineyards/their history and the wine they produce. Bikes were in tip-top shape and safe; in fact, the whole ride felt safe even as we were in more trafficked areas. Picnic lunch was delish. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely worth it! - Our wine bike tour was absolutely amazing. William, our guide was very knowledgeable and really knew his wine. We learned so much from him and he was so attentive and kind throughout the entire tour. We even hit a spot of bad weather along the way which was starting to get too cold for us and he was so kind enough to take us back to the shuttle and drive us around for the rest of the tour. It was amazing and I would absolutely do it again.

So good, do it!! - Surpassed all expectations and my expectations were pretty high. So fun, so beautiful, delicious lunch and wines, plus olive oil tasting, miniature horses, windmills, gorgeous views, a stop for treats and more. Three of the four of us had never been on e-bikes before but it felt safe AND adventurous. William was a lovely guide. Worth the $$!!!
