Step aboard Louisville’s historic trolley to explore distilleries, tasting rooms, & bourbon-infused bites!
As you roll through downtown, NuLu, and Butchertown, you’ll visit tasting rooms, tour a bourbon distillery, and sample sauces, spices and confections with a bourbon twist. Each stop features exclusive pours, tours, cocktails, stories, and plenty of Bourbon City surprises.
We’ve pulled together some of the most unique bourbon experiences in Louisville. Each exclusive experience explores bourbon in a totally different way, like a craft cocktail created just for our guests, behind-the-scenes access, or a customized tasting experience.
Please plan to arrive 15 minutes before the start time of your tour.
Please plan to eat before and after your tour, as there isn’t much food on the tour and you’ll be drinking quite a lot of bourbon!
Not enough to fill you up – this is NOT a food tour. You’ll enjoy a few snacks and samples of bourbon-infused sauces, spices, and sweets during your tour, but we suggest that you eat a hearty lunch before your tour and plan to go to dinner afterwards.
Your ticket includes exclusive access, bourbon tastings, cocktails and bites in some of the most hard-to-access spots on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, a take-home gift tote bag, and 3 hours of fun.
This experience is designed to be exclusive and one of a kind. We packed a LOT of exclusive bourbon experiences into a 3 hour window, and we custom designed every single experience on the tour to ensure exclusive access. This is truly Louisville’s most unique bourbon tour experience!
While we love the all day long bourbon country tours, we wanted to create something that could be done in a single afternoon without leaving the city – perfect for anyone with limited time, or who doesn’t want to devote an entire day to driving around.
When it comes to what we charge, our pricing for all tours is based on an operating margin that fairly compensates our hard working tour guides, pays full price to our local partners, and includes a 20% gratuity for the staff at each of the stops we visit.
You’ll enjoy several bourbon flights (totaling about 9 bourbon pours, and the maximum amount we’re allowed to serve allowed by Kentucky law), and 2 half-size cocktails. Please prepare yourself by eating before your tour, and plan to drink LOTS of water throughout!
Yes, we will be touring a bourbon distillery during this tour. We’ve designed the Bourbon Trolley to feature exclusive tours from to our distillery partners which are shorter than the typical distillery tour, so that we can get you to more bourbon destinations in a shorter timeframe.
We sure hope so! Our Bourbon Trolley experience is designed to offer something totally different than the typical bourbon distillery tours. The Bourbon Trolley is the perfect accompaniment to visiting distilleries along the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, but it’s entirely different experience.
