Great value and even better views. - We went on the Santa Barbara Bike Tour with Bella, she was great. The ride was fun and with the ability to turn on or off the e-bike you could make it as challenging or as easy as you wanted. She had a good command of the limited traffic we encountered and we felt safe the whole time.

Best tour guide we've ever had - Andre, our guide, was amazing. First time my husband & I used electric bikes. It was one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide brought us through Mesa, Michael Douglas Park & trail, described historical facts and interesting details about this beautiful part of the world.

Good & Bad - This is a good tour of many great spots. Our guide was very good. The route however was very unpleasant due to lots of very busy street traffic interaction and very tight manuvers were required to dodge gates and road blocks. Our group was also (in my opinion) too large for one tour guide. We had 8 on our tour. I won't ever ride on a Sunday in that area again.
