Overview of your Lexington tour:

Step back in time and relive the birth of the Bluegrass. We will visit historic sites which mark the beginning of this enchanted land. You will learn about our impressive history regarding education and politics, both of which were pivotal in shaping the USA. We will tie these historical markers together with the origination of our world-renown thoroughbred horse industry and the remarkable genesis of Bourbon Whiskey. Lexington Kentucky is nicknamed the Athens of the West for good reason. You will hear about the cultural and educational diversity dating back to 1775. You will stand where Abraham Lincoln stood on the courthouse steps. You'll touch amazing thoroughbred horses, hear about their journey and see where they apply their talents at the most beautiful race track in the world. You will see how real Kentucky Bourbon is made, inspect the mash and drink straight from the distiller's whiskey thief. There truly is no place like the Bluegrass. I anxiously await your arrival!
