Birthday Bourbon Trip!
My friend took treated me to a day tour for my birthday. It was top shelf and then some!!! Rabbit Hole (Louisville), Bulleit (Shelbyville), Buffalo Trace and a delicious lunch at Limewater (both in Frankfort). Tom R was our guide and he was excellent. Highly recommend Tom & Mint Julep! Professional, knowledgeable and just plain fun. And a shout out to our driver Nelson without whom we’d never made it to these super Kentucky distilleries...

Beautiful murals, wonderful memories
We saw so many amazing murals around town. Our guide Aaron was totally knowledgeable, really upbeat, and a great photographer! He recommended poses for pictures and captured amazing photos for my besties and I. It was so much more than I thought it would be! I would definitely recommend for any group, friends trip, or party to do....

Such a fun time!!!
This was sooo much fun! Luke patiently waited on me and my friend to get there (we were late ) and kept us entertained the whole time! He also was very knowledgeable about the city and could answer questions we asked. It was us and another group of bachelorettes and he was very attentive and personable. And the murals were so beautiful/fun to get pics with too! Highly recommend doing this tour with him for a great time!!!...

Look no further! Book with Mint Julep!
I did 2 tours the first with Cindy and Gary the driver. I loved the tour. First class experience. Cindy is a great guide and Gary is a top driver! You couldn’t ask for more in the tour. We were taken round some amazing distilleries and truly looked after by Mint Julep. The second was with the amazing driver guide Dan. Dan’s knowledge and enthusiasm is amazing! He really went the extra mile in looking after us....

Best Distillery Tour!
Excellent tour with Ryan who was very informative and funny, JD slushies were nice, recommend the JD and lemonade. Tasters were good and nether though I'd like the Apple Jack would be my favourite seeing as I don't like apple drinks! Well worth doing, ensure you go to the Lynchburgh Square and go to the Barrel House and have a grilled cheese on crack, delicious...
