My wife and I recently went on a wonderful e-bike tour with Mike. Mike did a great job, taking us to a number of different sites throughout the Santa Barbara area, providing a lot of history and local color along the way. We had a lot of fun. The bikes were in great shape. Definitely would recommend Mike and American Riviera Bike Tours.
The bikes were exceptional and the staff were very helpful showing us how to use the bikes and giving us tips for where to go, etc. we would definitely rent again from this great place!
Thanks Katie. We're glad you liked our suggestions on where to go.

Bikes were PERFECT for SB and incredibly well maintained. Mike was a gracious host and provided great maps and advice for the area! Very flexible. Will do again when we visit!
Thanks Peter. It was nice chatting with you and your wife.

We rented two e-bikes from Mike, one with a seat for our kids, and had such a great experience! The bikes were in perfect condition, super easy to ride, and everything was really well organized. Being able to keep them overnight was an added bonus.
Mike is incredibly friendly and welcoming. We especially love supporting a small business like this. Sending our warmest greetings from Germany — we would absolutely rent from Mike again! 🚲☀️
Thanks Ed! I love telling stories about my hometown.

Best bike tour money can buy. Really good quality e bikes in brand new condition. Mike was fantastic and incredibly knowledgeable about all the best spots/views/history in the area. Free ice cream to top off the tour - cant beat it. Would recommend 11/10!
Thanks Robert. I'm glad you made great memories on the bike ride.

My wife and I had two days to explore Santa Barbara.
Being into e-bikes, I thought what better way to get the lay of the land and picked Mike at American Riviera bike tours.
So fun! Turned out to be the highlight of our trip.
Mike is an excellent tour guide with stories and facts of Santa Barbara. No huge groups, just the three of us pedaling around with all the sights and history coming our way.
Plenty of stops and we were smiling the entire time.
If you can ride a bicycle, do yourself a favor and book this two and a half hour tour.
Thank you again mike!
