Awesome tour. Rooted Vine was highly recommended by our hotel, and they surpassed expectations. Iaon was superb. He was friendly. Very talkative about the area and wine. His wine knowledge and ability to explain things was the best we’ve heard. We were picked up on time in a very clean and spacious SUV. Felt very safe in the environment from Covid. He wore his mask the whole time, and wore the mask properly over his nose! The 3 private vineyards we went to were good. The wine and the environments and the servers were perfect. He also gave us recs for places to go on the following days. Overall it was a very special day in the Santa Barbara area.

5 of us just took this tour in Santa Barbara and were extremely glad we did! On time pick up from our hotel in large comfortable van with water. Beautiful drive up the coast and inland. Austin our guide was friendly, informative and relaxed. We enjoyed all the wineries very much and seeing different parts of the wine country. Lunch was fantastic, we ordered from a menu with about 20 different meat or veggie sandwich and salad choices. So glad we chose this tour and I highly recommend it!

Wonderful Santa Barbara winery tour! Our preferences were kept in mind when winery choices were made. Our host (and owner of the company), Ian, was very knowledgable about all things "wine" and was great company. We were a group of 5 ladies and our tour was private. The tour is a GREAT bargain! I would definitely choose this winery tour again and I will be recommending Rooted Vine Tours to all my friends.

My wife and I seek the locals-style experience whenever we travel, and this journey made our trip all the worth-while. Ian's knowledge about the wine and the unique Santa Barbara County climate, the sun-filled drive through the mountains to quaint towns, and the tale told by the winemakers themselves were all part of a magical journey forever forged in our minds. Take the time to spend a day and treat yourselves to this priceless memory. Ian took great care of us and is an amazing host.

What a fabulous day with Iaon of Rooted Vines Tours. Iaon started out asking all of us what wines we preferred and structured our day from there. He is so knowledgable and a lot of fun. Every stop just got better and better. I would highly recommend you take the day to take one of Iaon's tours so worth it and can't wait to go again.
