Santa Barbara Adventure Company

Pierce (aka Pierre as I liked to call him) was THE MAN! One of my best experiences with a tour guide as he was very insightful with not just the marine life, but the surrounding area as well. He was very flexible and accommodating with our adventure around the Santa Barbara harbor and in the ocean. I was impressed with the provided lunch as he put together quite the spread, earning him master chef status. Before the day started, my wife and I were disappointed since we cancelled our Channel Islands kayaking trip due to the expected rough waters, but this harbor excursion made us not regret a thing, and Pierce was a blast to hang out with the entire time. I would wholeheartedly recommend SB Adventure Co, and Pierce for that matter, for any guided tour in the area. Well done!

We had the best time! Adventure company was really well organized, from start to finish and didn't rush us through any phase of the trip especially the ocean kayaking instructions and change of clothes before that. We had bought the snorkel package as well, but they let us know well in advance that we may not have time to do it given it was a day trip for us & the ferry leaves at 3. They let us decide till the last minute on whether we wanted to still do snorkelling and refunded our money without us having to tell them a second time. Our guide Chuck was extremely patient, well-versed with the history of the islands and cautious about safety. Highly recommend!

I just came back from a trip to California where I had the pleasure of going on a discovery kayak tour in the Channel Islands through the Adventure Company. Not only was the tour amazing but the employees at Island Packers were so friendly and informative they made a solo traveler like myself feel at ease throughout the entire thing. I highly recommend booking anything through this company, I can't wait to return sometime soon!
