Reviews: Santa Barbara Trolley Tour
Guest User2026-01-27
This tour was informative and more interesting than I expected. I learned a lot about Santa Barbara’s history from the 1700s to today, with a nice mix of historical and current facts. The guide shared great details, from ship cannons and early coastal defenses to celebrities who live in the area now. One highlight was a small upscale town filled mostly with high-end women’s clothing boutiques. We learned it’s a quiet, paparazzi-free area where celebrities live and spend time. Another standout was seeing a unique house built from artist-painted panels created by local artists, which was really cool to see in person. The only downside was the seating. The wooden benches didn’t offer much back support, and after a while it became uncomfortable. Overall, this is a great tour for first-time visitors and adults who want to learn about the area without doing a lot of walking.

Reviews: Santa Barbara: Scenic Canyon Horseback Riding Tour
Guest User2025-12-31
I liked the view. The guide was rude and rather than helping a beginner on the horse had very rude comments. He made the experience very difficult to enjoy and it seems like he is miserable at doing his job. Comments like "You signed up for thism A six year old can ride the horse. " Asking if I had a husband or boyfriend to describe holding on the reins was inappropriate. I stated I was a beginner and the instructions were directed poorly for someone who is nervous about falling off the horse.
