5.00Great experience. Sergio and Sean were very knowledgeable about both mountain biking and the area. We took the beginners class and had a great time biking around the coast next to UCSB. They took us to several great overlooks and could not have been more professional and helpful. Strongly recommend.

5.00This is the 2nd year in a row we used CalCoast for a team building activity. The guides were amazing and took the group on a route that was challenging, but suitable for different levels. Everyone had a blast! They are very organized and it was extremely easy to plan a group outing. Will definitely be using them next year.

5.00Awesome tour of Santa Barbara with Mike. He was friendly and informative. Made the day lots of fun. The electric bikes were modern and up to date and a real blast to ride. We had one super beginner with us that slowed us down a bit but Mike made sure she got the help she needed and kept the tour going. Highly recommend - especially early on in your visit as Mike gives lots of recommendations for sight-seeing and restaurants. A++.
Great experience
