Q&A

Q: What should I wear to the wine tour? Is it fancy or casual?

A: I'd recommend wearing smart casual. You want to feel comfortable while walking around the vineyards, but you also want to look nice since it's a small group tour. A light jacket can be handy because it can get breezy in Santa Barbara, especially in the evening. And don’t forget comfortable shoes!

Q: Can you reschedule if something comes up after booking?

A: Yes, you can usually reschedule your tour for a different date. Just make sure to contact Sustainable Wine Tours directly as soon as you know. They’re pretty flexible, but it’s best to give them at least 48 hours notice if possible. They really want everyone to have a great experience without too much hassle.

Q: What ages is this wine tour suitable for? Are kids allowed?

A: This tour is designed for adults, so kids under 21 aren’t allowed. It’s really geared toward wine enthusiasts looking for a more personal experience. If you're planning to gift this tour to someone, keep that in mind—they’ll want to be at least of legal drinking age to truly enjoy it!

Just booked the small-group wine tour in Santa Barbara!

I'm super excited—I just bought a gift certificate for the Santa Barbara Small-Group Wine Tour! I really love the idea of visiting private estates. I heard you get to meet winemakers and taste wines that aren’t available anywhere else. Plus, the cheese platters sound delicious. I’m planning this for my friend's birthday next month. Has anyone done this yet? Any tips?

Thinking about giving a wine tour as a gift, worth it?

I’m considering getting the Santa Barbara wine tour for my parents' anniversary. They love wine but have never done a small group tour before. Do you think it’s a more intimate experience compared to larger tours? I just want them to have a great time without the crowds.
