We took the tour on Oaks Day (Friday before Derby) this year and visited Barton distillery and Jim Beam. We ate lunch at Kurtz restaurant in Bardstown. Barton distillery had a tour with a guide provided by the distillery and tasting, very educational, saw lots of inner workings. Jim Beam was self guided, not nearly as educational, but very pretty...

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our day on Mint Julep Tours "Best of Kentucky Tours" for horse breeding farm, lunch and bourbon country tour. Tour guide Jennifer and our driver made the trip entertaining and interesting for all in our group. The experience at the farm and distiller are memories not to be forgotten soon - from Tonto the...

My fiancée and I booked a trip through bourbon country while visiting family in Louisville. First off, the staff at Mint Julep Tours is exceptional and extremely easy to work with. They seem to have all the inside knowledge of local attractions and have established personal relationships each distillery we visited. On our bourbon tour we stopped at Maker's Mark,... More

Tour guide Gary and driver went out of their way to make the tour engaging and interesting for everyone in our group. Mint Julep's connections were able to get us behind the scenes access to areas of the distillery that those on the standard tours did not receive. Lunch at the Talbott Tavern was excellent even though the service was... More

Refreshing look into the operations and history of the bourbon distilling process and distribution. The facility we toured was extremely clean and the tour guide was very knowledgeable. The sampling event was very enjoyable. Will definitely recommend the wonderful opportunity Mint Julip Tours provides in learning about the bourbon industry.

I have lived in KY my whole life and recently my finace and I decided to tour the bourbon distilleries Kentucky is known for. I have been to one or two in my life time but nothing compares to the Mint Julep tours! If you are from KY or just visiting you must go. My finance hates bourbon but just... More

There is nothing better than this trip! What was interesting was we shared the tour of the Jim Beam Distillery with families from Oregon, Michigan, Florida, Ohio and elsewhere. Mint Julep Tours did a fantastic job hosting us. This trip truly reminds me of visiting Napa Valley. I seriously had no idea what a great asset we have at our... More

This is my third trip I scheduled with Mint Julep Tours, and cant believe it could be better than the last. Having them plan the tour allowed us to get the "inside info" on the Jim Beam distillery due to their close relationship MJT has with them. This was the first trip with MJT that I planned for a group,... More

The driver was friendly and professional. We had a great time and look forward to another great tour.
