This walking tour promises an immersive experience, combining the best of Santa Barbara's maritime past, scenic beauty, artistic vibrancy, and culinary excellence.
Set out on foot to explore Santa Barbara's glimmering waterfront, where busy maritime commerce and sophisticated relaxation converge beautifully. The working harbor is full of fishing boats and luxury yachts -- it is the cultural heart of the city with its cafés, seafaring adventures, surf culture tidbits, and its Channel Islands, whose role in the region's human history dates back thousands of years.
At postcard-perfect Stearns Wharf, your guide unravels the tales of its humble beginnings as a lumber and foodstuff depot and explains its evolution into a beloved symbol of Santa Barbara's maritime heritage. Savor the moment with a wine tasting accompanied by the soothing sounds of the waves.
Venture into the artsy, mural-laden Funk Zone -- a vibrant neighborhood with a fascinating history of industry, and now a haven for artists, wine lovers, creatives and foodies. Here, a delectable pre-selected lunch is paired with your choice of local craft beer or wine -- the farm-to-table tastes for which Santa Barbara is famous.
A special surprise dessert tasting may include artisanal ice cream, rich gourmet chocolates, or fresh baked goods.
