With over 15 years of local wine industry experience, Wine Canyon Tours gives you an informative and adventurous, yet casual exploration of the gorgeous Santa Barbara back country. The wine tours are designed for guests to relax, enjoy scenic views, eat delicious BBQ and most important to discover premium boutique wineries that produce high-quality wines. Our goal is to create an unforgettable wine touring experience.

Santa Barbara is a diverse and bountiful land with a pristine coastline, stunning peaks, deep canyons, seemingly endless stretches of green valleys and hillsides; a rugged east/west mountain range separating the Pacific from the valley. This rich geography sets the stage for a wine country where cool and warm climate vineyards thrive.

Santa Barbara Wine Country is a place where both pioneers and a new generation of winegrowers and winemakers nurture vines and make handcrafted, exquisite wines with care and without pretense - a place where Wine Canyon Tours’ guests are always welcome.
