Why Lexington? Quoting AFAR Magazine: “One of the best weekend getaways in the United States.” While Architectural Digest describes Lexington: “The Horse Capital of the World, will dazzle you with historic architecture, a vibrant art scene, and, yes, plenty of bourbon.” But that’s not all. Breathtaking natural beauty and an equally impressive creative culture await you. If history and museums are your niche, we’ve got that too!
What can you expect? First, let’s talk Bourbon. What sets our bourbon apart from all others? A rare limestone formation filters natural spring water for the world’s finest bourbon. To complement nature’s bounty, we have a magical group of creative & innovative bourbon masters. It’s no wonder that bourbon lovers and expert mixologists race to the Bluegrass. Whether distillery tours & tastings; or simply pulling up a stool at one of our iconic drinking holes, we’ve got your first and most tasty pour. We can craft a memorable and tasty experience tailored specifically for you.
What trip to the Bluegrass would be complete without horses? Afterall, we have an abundance of farms. We can arrange tours based upon your preferences – working farm, medical farm, meet racing legends both past and present, or visit the retirees farms providing dignified retirement to Thoroughbreds whose racing and breeding careers have come to an end. Breeders Cup, Triple Crown winners and more are living their best life. And speaking of winners – no horse enthusiast comes to Lexington without a day at the races. Keeneland awaits!
How do I get there? Lexington is within a day’s drive of two thirds of the U.S. population. And if you are traveling by air, Blue Grass Airport is only 10 minutes to the heart of the city and less than a mile to Keeneland Racetrack. The Northern Kentucky/Cincinnati International Airport, and the Louisville International Airport – are each a about an hour away.
