The day
Bourbon and thoroughbreds grew up together in Woodford County, and
this tour tells both stories in a single afternoon. Your local guide
drives, narrates, and knows the people at every stop — you just
enjoy the ride. Your seat covers the ride and the guide; each stop's
admission and tastings are paid directly to the venue, so every
guest chooses their own experience.
