Our group of (6) adults had a great time on our electric bike tour with Joshua as our guide. We are all very comfortable on bikes, having taken other city bike tours previously, but I believe these bikes would also be great for those less confident on two wheels. Joshua quickly vibed with our group, understanding we don't take things too seriously, and was joking around with us in no time. All the while, he was very professional and kind, making for a relaxing and enjoyable tour. He was constantly checking in with us, ensuring the group was safe and stayed together as we navigated busy areas and crossed traffic. Never did we feel concerned about being in great hands with Joshua! Don't be deterred by the 2.5 hr timing - it was just the right amount of riding and taking in the sites. There were many stops along the way to snap pictures, take in the beautiful views, and learn interesting history and tidbits about Santa Barbara. Take it from us - a group who contemplated taking our own self tour of SB...it was well worth the money to hire Cal Coast (specifically Joshua) and let Joshua do all the navigating!

Great tour provided by Blaze and Cal Coast.
Bikes were very good, smooth and easy to ride.
Blaze was a great guide, friendly and knowledgeable. He took good care of us, checking the group were ok and navigating the traffic well when we were on the road. Lots of use of Santa Barbara’s bike path.
We saw many areas of the town that we would not have found on our own.

We were a group of 5 ladies celebrating a birthday and had a great time with our bike leader, Blaze! We loved the ride along the beach sidewalk and going into Montecito. He stopped along the way and gave us information and enjoyed the stop at the courthouse and climbing the stairs for the views of Santa Barbara! Biking was awesome and we all had a great time!

This was our first time using e-bikes and we had a wonderful experience. We enjoyed the opportunity to see different areas of the city and to stop and enjoy the beautiful sites and views. Sergio was an incredible tour guide. He was patient, funny, knowledgeable and friendly. We would definitely do this again the next time we are in Santa Barbara!
