The Ultimate Two-Day Bourbon Trail Experience

Several of our guests told us that, even when you reserve time to tour the Louisville distilleries on your own, there are so many Frankfort distilleries, Lexington distilleries and Bardstown distilleries that a one-day tour with a knowledgeable tour guide just isn’t enough. So we huddled with our Bourbon Trail tour partners at Travel the Trail, and we created the Two-Day Bourbon Trail Plus experience.. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience that we’re confident every bourbon enthusiast and adventure seeker will absolutely love! This is more than just a tour. It’s a guided journey through Kentucky’s bourbon heartland and a celebration of Kentucky’s rich cultural heritage.
