It was great. Our guide was very knowledgeable. We had a great time seeing all the farms and horses.

Discover why Lexington, Kentucky is known as the Horse Capital of the World on this 3.5-hour narrated tour with transportation provided on a comfortable 14-person passenger van. The tour is not all on the van, though, as destination stops are made at world famous Keeneland Race Course* and one or more of the beautiful Thoroughbred horse farms that combine to make the Lexington region the true epicenter of Thoroughbred breeding in the United States ... and beyond. All tours are given by very experienced local guides who share a wealth of stories about the history of the local area, farms, bourbon production and the Thoroughbred horse -- the world's most desired breed for winning the world's most prestigious races. * NOTE: All tour itineraries can vary/change depending on changing destination and farm availability on the specific day of the tour. This is true for all of the venues (including Keeneland at its discretion) and the Thoroughbred horse farms. Thank you for touring with us

Our tour guide, Tim, was incredibly knowledgeable about the thoroughbred horse racing industry. I highly recommend this tour when you visit Lexington! We had a great time and saw a lot of cool places.

This was one of the highlights of our trip. After seeing the Ark, we enjoyed the short drive to Lexington and toured downtown. Our tour of the horse farm was around 12:30 which was perfect. Our guide was very smart, knew his stuff, experienced, listened to our questions, told us inside information and explained everything thoroughly. I would strongly recommend this tour to anyone headed your direction.

The tour guide was very informative being that he was from the area and has been in the horse business his whole life. He encouraged us to ask a lot of questions and always had an answer for us

Great opportunity to learn more about the Horse Farm operations and how it has changed over the years in Lexington. It was fun walking through some stables and meeting different aged thoroughbreds- especially the Mom's & babies!
