This was a great day with Col.Ron! He is a great tour guide and very knowlefgable of the Louisville area. The lunch provided was at a nice venue and delicious! We really enjoyed our day!
Fantastic tour with Tony. Group of 9 guys -- we did 3 distilleries and if we had another day we would have done another 3. Tony fit right in with our group, and I'd highly recommend Mint Julep and Tony!
Did a father and son trip on the mint julep tour and say it exceeded our expectations would not do the experience justice. It was amazing. In fact because we had some extra time, they actually added an extra distillery for us. Also, the lunch was 4 star I would highly recommend this tour Great job guys. Thanks for a wonderful experience.
We had a fantastic tour experience. The best part was since we were a small group of 6 we had time to go to an additional distillery. This was our first guided tour, I now think it is worth the money to go on a guided tour. You get personal service, you get the knowledge of the tour guide, and the group of friends feeling after a bourbon tasting or three. However, you are on a schedule, but we never felt rushed.
Holly is an absolute rockstar tour guide! Her stories and great personality made a great day even better. Gary was a safe and professional driver and our trip was made even better with these two. Highly recommend tour experience!
Holly - Best Tour Guide ever!!
We had a fantastic time on our tour! Great insights on Bourbon. Lunch was wonderful. We met fun people. It was a perfect day!
Highly recommend this tour! We did the Sunday brunch tour that included a brunch and alcoholic cocktail at brunch. Then we we went to Kentucky Artisan and Buffalo Trace. We did a tour and tasting at Kentucky artisan and an elevated guided tasting at Buffalo Trace. Both places were wonderful! Michael was our tour guide in mint Julep tours and he was knowledgeable and made it so fun! He was joking with us and telling stories on the bus to pass the time. They also provided water bottles and cups with ice for the ride back so we could sample our whiskeys we purchased in the bus!
Everything was perfect. Cindy was not only our fabulous driving but a Wonderful tour guide. She knew so much history about Louisville plus the bourbon trail and distilleries.
Lux Distillery
What a great day! We did the brunch and bourbon tour. Started with a nice brunch and a cocktail. They needed to make sure we had a good base in our stomach before we started out to the tastings. Then out to the country to Bulleit and a very nice tour of the facility and a very unique tasting. Grabbed a cocktail, some lovely bourbon and off to the next stop. It was a smaller bourbon house and another tasting. What a great day! The guide Dan and Michael were very entertaining. I can't recommend them enough!
Great tour and great service that exceeded my expectations. The tour leader and driver were amazing. Tour took place out of the Omni hotel at 10AM on 7/7. Very memorable tour and will book future tours next time I visit Kentucky.

Imagine being in the same room as talented chefs as they prepare delicious meals using local ingredients. It’s a true feast for the senses and a chance to learn some culinary secrets from the experts.
