Great wine tour of Paso Robles
Great wine tour ! Jasmine was punctual, knowledgeable, informative and friendly . Spent the whole day with her touring wineries around Paso Robles and her depth of knowledge about so many topics was incredible. Super sweet, friendly and easy to work with. Definitely would highly recommend !!
via Tripadvisor
Highlight of our trip
My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed a customized tour with Jasmine. Even prior to the tour, I found Jasmine knowledgeable and generous with unrelated suggestions for other activities and even places to stay. She hit a home run with her suggestions for our tour - wine tasting at an amazing winery and olive oil tasting where her knowledge and networking led to a seamless and stress free experience. Really, the highlight of our trip. Book a tour; you won’t be sorry.

Enjoyable tour of the Paso Robles area
Jasmine provided a wonderful tour of Paso Robles and three wineries. Prior to the tour, Jasmine touched base to confirm my husband's and my interests, and did a great job fulfilling them. Jasmine is a cheerful lady who is well educated with Paso Robles and the surrounding area. We strongly recommend anyone who wants a tour of this area, to consider Jasmine's assistance to do this.

Highly Recommend!
We had an amazing day visiting wineries in Paso Robles with our fantastic tour guide, Jasmine. La La Tours was recommended by our hotel and very glad they did. I was very specific with the wineries I wanted to visit and Jasmine was very accommodating. I prefer a private car vs going on a big tour bus. So this was perfect. I can’t wait to go back!

Wonderful customized tour!
Jasmine provides a wonderful customized experience! As two out-of-town visitors (one from Chicago and one from SF Area), we weren’t familiar with Paso Robles. Jasmine created a day for us that included a historical tour (she is a member of the local Historical Society), overview of upcoming local events, tour of East and West Paso Robles, as well as wine tasting and driving. We felt like we really got a good sense of the area as a result, and we had an absolutely amazing day! I’m planning a family trip soon, and will contact Jasmine to arrange a child-friendly day of sightseeing and museum/dining activities. Jasmine was knowledgeable, personable, a very safe driver, and extremely punctual. We are so pleased!

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Luis Obispo.
How much does Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria) cost?
+
Prices start at $499 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Luis Obispo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria) take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in San Luis Obispo is not rushed.
Is Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Luis Obispo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria)?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria)?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Luis Obispo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Luis Obispo and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour of California's Central Coast (San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles-Cambria) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central San Luis Obispo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in San Luis Obispo?
+
San Luis Obispo, CA packs its best experiences into walkable neighborhoods, local food, and day trips nearby. Outty ranks every bookable tour and activity in San Luis Obispo by rating quality, review depth, booking demand and value, so you can see the standouts before you book. On Outty we rank every San Luis Obispo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Electric Bike Rental in Morro Bay, Guided E-Bike Tour of Morro Bay, Downtown SLO Brunch Food & Drink Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit San Luis Obispo?
+
Spring and fall bring the best weather and lighter crowds in San Luis Obispo, while summer has the widest choice of tours and evening activities. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in San Luis Obispo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
