Distillery Visits
Distillery tours are the heart of what we do on the Bourbon Trail. Each one is different and these slight changes in process make for a very different Bourbon or Rye.
On this tour we will visit Maker’s Mark, Willett, Wild Turkey, Jim Beam, Peerless, Woodford Reserve, Heaven Hill and Buffalo Trace.
Unique Excursions
There is more to Kentucky than just Bourbon! Well, maybe not, but there are a lot of fun other things to do. On this tour we will get the chance to watch live racing at Churchill Downs during the live stream of the Preakness Stakes in Baltimore.
Other great excursions on this trip will be a trip to the Claiborne Horse Farm, a visit to a working cooperage and some other fun treats.
Great Dining
Food is always an important part of our whiskey tours. You need good food to compliment good whiskey! We feature special restaurants for group dining opportunities. Included in the tour are two dinners, three lunches and breakfast every morning.
And finding the best whiskey bars is always a top priority as well.
