guests say

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

Jack Daniel's Tour — Great in every way!

Our tour guide, Johnathan was the best. He was friendly, fun and knowledgeable of the area. Our tour was created for us by Pam at Mint Julep and it was perfect!

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!!!

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.
