6 Sightseeing Tours in Louisville That You Shouldn't Miss

October 9, 2021 Roger Rusk

Each year, horse enthusiasts hoof it to Louisville and Churchill Downs, the legendary home of the Kentucky Derby. In addition to equestrian endeavors and bluegrass roots, Louisville boasts a range of exciting attractions the whole family can enjoy. Stroll through Central Park, in the historic district, to people-watch and get a real feel for the city. Visit other nearby parks for hiking, biking and fossil finding. Baseball fans will love the Louisville Slugger Museum, a celebration of the sport's legends. The museum is easy to spot, just look for the humongous bat that leans against the building.

We did a tour of Makers Mark and Heaven hill. The best part was our driver. We chose Ambassador Capital and our driver Belinda was great. Fun to talk to and very attentive. Made the trip to Makers much easier with her driving .

We booked the Manhattan tour, and had Glenn as our tour guide. He was very accommodating, and even went out of his way to pick us up at my group's Airbnb. We got an early start at Woodford Reserve, while Glenn gave us a bit of history as we drove into the area. After an amazing tour at Woodford, we stopped for lunch. My group was all vegan, and Glenn called the restaurant to make sure they would have an option for us. After that we hit Buffalo Trace, which was fantastic as well. We took a mini coffee break before wrapping up at Angel's Envy. Glenn provided snacks, drinks, and even bubble wrap for any bottles we purchased (for our luggage). I would certainly recommend Pegasus. 10/10.
