Absolutely fantastic tour! Energetic and fun tour - our 21+ “kids” had a great time too!!! Highly recommend this for a great afternoon in Lexington!!!

Join us in the lively Distillery District for a journey in time you won't forget! Town Branch Creek won't be the only thing flowing as we sip on limestone filtered bourbons, sample long-standing Kentucky cuisine, and explore the stories behind this revitalized piece of Lexington's history. You'll sample cider, farm-to-table fare, German inspired bites, sophisticated cocktails, Kentucky staples like burgoo, award-winning ice cream, and the bourbon that built this 25 acre property, all while hearing well-researched history woven into a day filled with fun and new friends!

Elena was a great tour guide! We had plenty of delicious food and learned so much along the way. The tour included everything from fascinating local history and Kentucky legends to fun facts about Lexington today. Highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to explore the city through its stories and flavors!

We enjoyed this slow paced walk, talk and tasting around the District. Guide was informative about the area and the city. Food offerings were okay. Believe it could be a faster tour (a bit too much lingering and small talk), cut an hour off of it and lower the tour price.

We never would have found this area were it not for booking this tour. The distillery district is off the path from the usual downtown haunts. It is a collection of nearly 10 bars and restaurants, most with outside seating. Our tour guide, Kay, was enthusiastic and engaging and the food and drinks were delicious-we were quite full by the end! We ended the tour at a quiet little speakeasy and a perfect Manhattan.
