Where you will start your adventure....
The Galt House
On 4th & Main, the Galt House is where guests come to experience, immerse and delight in Louisville’s winning spirit. No other hotel can grant guests access to the city like they can, from their central location in the heart of the business community, museum district, cultural center and Urban Bourbon Trail, to their unique waterfront location. Overlooking the waterfront from the heart of downtown, the Galt House® Hotel is a Legendary Louisville® hotel. In fact, they’re the largest hotel in Kentucky with a rich history that dates back to the 1800s. Today, their world-class hotel features 1,310 contemporary guest rooms and suites.
Pegasus has partnered with this amazing hotel and negotiated special room rates for our tour guests. Learn more here.
First stop...the Official Starting Point of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail®...
Frazier History Museum
Join us as we delve into the history of Bourbon with a special tour, talk, and tasting at the Frazier History Museum. Founded in 2004 and located in the West Main District of downtown Louisville, the Frazier History Museum is where the world meets Kentucky. An affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, the Frazier documents stories from history using artifacts, exhibitions, and guided tours led by a talented staff of educators. With the opening of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail® Welcome Center and the Spirit of Kentucky® exhibition in 2018, the Frazier became the official starting point of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail®. Learn more here.
Then we’re off to enjoy our Southern-cooked meal ...
The Old Talbott Tavern
When visitors walk into the Old Talbott Tavern, there’s a feeling about the place. It’s well kept, but the passage of time is evident in a few creaking floorboards. There’s an air about the place that speaks of people who have come and gone, spending time in the pub and retiring to their rooms before an early morning departure. The old stone reminder of Bardstown’s beginnings still welcomes visitors to the bustling downtown area. Since the late 1700s, the Old Talbott Tavern, on Court Square, has provided shelter, food and drink to Kentucky travelers. The Old Talbott Tavern is said to be the oldest western stagecoach stop in America as the westward expansion brought explorers from the east into Kentucky.
Then off to our first distillery!
Heaven Hill Distillery
Nestled in the heart of historic Bardstown, there's something for every American Whiskey fan at this official stop on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail®. Immerse yourself in the Heaven Hill Bourbon Experience®, where you can discover our heritage, taste our traditions and raise a glass to the fine art of whiskey-making. Or go behind-the-scenes at the all-new Heaven Hill Springs Distillery, and see for yourself how we craft your favorite products. Learn More
Off to the next distillery!
James B. Beam Distillery
For eight generations, Jim Beam welcomed folks from far and wide to their home and distillery. Some call it Kentucky hospitality. For them, it’s just who they are. Join them in Clermont where a tradition that started two centuries ago continues today. As the First Family of Bourbon, they’ve been at work on our craft for centuries. Sometimes they break the rules, but there’s one they always follow: only bottle whiskey worthy of the Beam name. Learn more here.
