  Cannot speak highly enough of Travel the Trail and Lee. Having Lee as your guide is like taking a tour with your grandfather, and I mean that in the best possible way. He's got all kinds of great information to share between stops, and could not be a more welcoming host. We were also the first tour to get a tasting in his new office (which he built himself - it's a great space), and he designed a great custom tasting there to start the say. I would 100% recommend Travel the Trail to anyone looking to do a bourbon tour.

  I don't leave many reviews on my travels but when a company goes above and beyond to provide a great experience, I have no problem taking the time. It was just myself and my wife on this tour and it was our first time in Kentucky doing the Bourbon Trail. From the moment a placed the initial phone call to Lee for some information, I was given great customer service. He was friendly and very knowledgeable about anything and everything related to the Kentucky area and Bourbon. All my questions were answered with ease. It actually felt like two old friends talking on the phone and I really liked that. The tour was absolutely perfect and exactly what my wife and I were looking for. We did 3 distilleries(tour and tasting) and lunch at one other one. It was a perfect day. We weren't rushed at all and we learned a lot. We intend on returning to the Bourbon trail again next year and I will again be calling Lee to book something. He is the best in the business at what he does. Travel The Trail! You wont be disappointed!

  Look no further if you're seeking a customized, hassle-free, big fun tour of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail - Lee Buckner and the Travel the Trail team are it! I reached out to Lee to schedule a 2-day tour of some of the Bardstown and Eastern areas distilleries as a wedding gift for my now husband, and he got back to me almost instantly. Lee was responsive, had great recommendations for our itinerary, and easy to communicate with right up to the day of. Our guides - Bob on day 1, Rob on day 2 - were the best stewards we've ever had on any travel experience anywhere. They were both area experts of all things Kentucky, bourbon, and history; super fun with great senses of humor; and 100% accommodating and dedicated to making sure guests are comfortable, engaged, and having a great time. We will most definitely be back to tour with Travel the Trail again, and will exclusively refer them to anyone interested in experiencing the Bourbon Trail in a way that is tailored to their wants and totally stress-free. Thank you Lee, Bob & Rob!

  Lee was amazing to work with. He helped me plan my husbands 50th for 10 people. Great couples trip. Lee helped me select the distilleries based on my husbands favorites. We spent two days exploring distilleries in a comfortable van/bus. He created an itinerary for both days with lunch. We didn’t have to worry about a thing. Both days exceeded our expectations. As luck would have it we were able to see the leaves change. That’s a big deal to Floridians. One of our favorite parts was meeting Rob, our tour guide. He was so much fun and knowledgeable about the distilleries and area. It was hard to say goodbye when he dropped us off after our second day. Our favorite tour was 1792 Barton. It was old school. Even the ladies enjoyed this tour. You won’t be disappointed if you book with Travel The Trail. Wonderful service and communication.

  Planned a trip over several months. Lee Buckner was patient, flexible, and experienced in discussing possibilities. He gave us great suggestions that never failed in engaging and entertaining our group. Our guide for Travel the Trail tour was Bob Young. He was very knowledgeable and accommodating which made our experience richer and more fun. Would not hesitate to give Travel the Trail the highest recommendation. You learn interesting things, it’s fun, a great value, and the people are first class.

  Reunion of eight enjoyed a great two day tour of distilleries led by Bob. Great planning and commentary. Bob was flexible to meet individual requests. Coach was clean and well stocked.

  If you are looking for a private Distillery tour, look no further! My husband and I cannot say enough good things about our Distillery tour with Travel the Trail, and our guide Bob! Bob was outstanding! He was able to take us everywhere we wanted to go and was so knowledgeable about the area and all of the Distilleries. We thoroughly enjoyed his company and conversation throughout the entire day. We know the tour would’ve been great on its own, but Bob made our experience even better!

  Bob and the Travel the Trail group were exceptional in planning our trip to Kentucky. We told them some of the things we wanted to do and they made it happen. We spent three days with Bob and were able to visit bourbon distilleries, a thoroughbred horse farm, the horse races at Keeneland and other Louisville sites. It really was one of the best trips we have taken.

  3 of us went on a Bourbon Trail tour with Travel the Trail. What a wonderful experience. Our tour guide and driver, Rob, was knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging. Rob picked us up on time at our Louisville hotel and took us first to Maker’s Mark - so lovely! We were then taken to lunch at Bardstown Burgers (included in the tour price) in downtown Bardstown. After lunch we went to a tasting at Barton’s then back to Louisville for a tour and tasting at Angel’s Envy. My experience with Travel the Trail was excellent from the booking with Lee to the day spent with Rob. I highly recommend Travel the Trail for your Bourbon Trail Tour.
