Bourbon Tour: Woodford or Four Roses or Wild Turkey or Other

Helped us get into multiple distilleries that we couldn’t get tickets to. Driver was on time, super nice, and courteous. Good experience

Never experienced the Bourbon Trail, but Viator made it quick and easy ! Our tour guide and host Yosvany was excellent!! He planned all the stops on our day long trip and also kept us on our toes. (you will lose track of time there) It was great to sit back, relax and enjoy the best bourbons, while he safely drove us around the countryside to all the major Distrilleries. I would recommend this trip in a minute to anyone looking for the same experience. Well Done & Thanks again Yosvany !

Our driver Kristin was excellent. The tours were great. We learned a lot. The only downside was planning it and working with the Viator group in planning. We went back and forth a lot before they gave us an itinerary and then didn’t communicate to the driver where to pick us up so she had to call and make her way to us in downtown Louisville the morning of. I got three different start times before we determined what was final!

Our driver was amazing and helpful. She was so kind and informative. She checked us in everywhere and told us where everything was before leaving us to enjoy our tour. would do this again in a heartbeat!

Enjoyed, but recommend the following: Don't use limousine. There were 8 of us. Cramped and hard to get in and out. Eliminate the half hour gift shop time at Maker's Mark and start the tour earlier. People didn't have time to get bottles dipped afterwards. Also caused us to be late to Buffalo Trace tour. Our guide was able to get us in. Also would be good if our guide had a microphone and gave us some history during the drive.

When you book a tour titled Woodford, Buffalo Trace, Wild turkey and other, you would think these are the stops on the tour. It says that you can add a fourth stop, if you would like. Nope. Not the case. I didn't find out until a week later that in fact, these distilleries are not open on a Tuesday. I know that companies have had to make changes due to Covid but that information should be listed in the description of the tour. A heads up would have been nice. After my credit card was changed (they don't offer refunds), a week later I get an email saying that these are not available on the day I selected. So I ask about Monday. Another week later I get a list of places that are available. Again, not all stops that are listed in the title of the tour were going to be open. So I ask about Wednesday. Another week later, I get the list. I responded asking some additional questions only to not heard back for two more weeks later. Mind you, I've reached out three times during this period. After SEVEN weeks of going back and forth, I get a new list of options and I make a selection for the original day. Limestone, Makers and Buffalo Trace. We have tours and tastings booked at Limestone and Makers, but not Buffalo. We had just a tasting scheduled at Buffalo. Day of the tour, we walk the six blocks to the meeting point where I was told to be at by 8:30am only to find a man standing next to a truck waiting for us. No bus. No other ppl. That was fine until he asked where we came from and I told him. He then tells me that he could have picked us up at our hotel had he known. I was never asked where we were staying. If that was an option, you should offer it especially after all the back and forth nonsense I had to go through. First stop on the tour was Limestone. Guess what? There wasn't a tour booked for us. Just a tasting. Now our driver is scrambling trying to get us in to no avail. The nice gentleman at Limestone heard the conversation and my aggravation and took pity on us. He did show us around. When we got to the tasting portion, there was another couple there who used the same tour company and was having the same issues. Some tours were never booked for them Needless to say, they were just as frustrated as we were. In the end, we got a tour of Buffalo Trace, so that was fine. The driver. OMG. I'm not sure how long he has been driving in the US but he might need a refresh. Driving in the fast lane, 20 mph slower than he should have been. Beeped at left and right. Was even slower on the back roads. It took forever to get anywhere. It's pretty bad when a semi tractor trailer passes you on a back road. The driver asked us what we wanted to listen to while in the car. We said anything but country music. It started off fine but then static kicked in and he turned to a gospel/religious station. I didn't agree to that nor did I want to listen to that. That was inappropriate. There is no time for lunch during this tour. It's not built in but it most certainly should be. There was a lovely restaurant at Maker's Mark that we could have enjoyed lunch at. Instead, I had to beg the driver to stop at McDonald's or Burger King because after back to back bourbon tastings, it's a good idea to eat something. Thankfully, he stopped for us. In the end, he dropped us off at our hotel which was appreciated. The day was ok. I would recommend working with another tour company. 2SD didn't cut it.

Our tour guide and driver, Marjorie was extremely accommodating, knowledgeable about the bourbon experience and a lot of fun! We would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Kentucky wanting to do a tour.

Don’t trust the headline, do trust the fine print.. they have no tickets to the distilleries, they try to get them after they have your money.

Our driver Juan went above and beyond. Sue to inclement weather, we were late for the last tour. He was able to get us to join the tour so we didn’t miss anything.

Not getting picked up at right place and changing itinerary multiple times. It was a terrible tour. I would not recommend it.
