Reviews from Customers

  • Mint Julep Tours and most especially Greg are the epitome of Southern Hospitality at its finest. My husband and I attended a charity auction for the Me, Fine Foundation in Raleigh, NC & won the bid for this trip. We were thrilled at the thought of Louisville: Food-Bourbon-Music-Horses...but also didn’t really know what we’d gotten ourselves into. We were absolutely wowed from moment one. We had the pleasure of meeting our gracious tour guide Greg S. He helped us get our Kentucky Bourbon ‘learn on’ while anticipating our every need or whim before they even occurred to us! We enjoyed the well-appointed chauffeur service, amazing food, and true V.I.P. treatment as we meandered down the Bourbon Trail visiting renowned distillers, enjoyed private tastings, and lunched in enchanting Bardstown, KY. Mint Julep Tours and most especially Greg are the epitome of Southern Hospitality at its finest. THANKYOU for a singularly amazing trip & the incredible thought and generous service—we will most definitely recommend y’all to friends and family!
