great tour - The tour was everything as advertised. We left by small bus early with a guide who was knowledgeable and friendly. He drove us through the area, pointing out different horse farms and giving some local history. We stopped at a horse retirement center, at a working horse farm and were escorted through the race track. We had such a nice time on the morning tour, we decided to return that afternoon for the races--lost two but won one!!

Great horse farm tour - Our guide Vicky was fantastic! Horses are her passion and she had so many stories about the farms and thoroughbred horses of Kentucky! Keeneland was a great stop, too! The horse farms we drove by were beautiful, and it was fun to feed and pet a couple of retired horses. A great morning!

Learned A lot about Thoroughbreds - Really enjoyed! The guides were so knowledgeable and was great to hear the stories from one who is a retired jockey. I didn't know a lot about thoroughbreds or the vast and critical role Lexington horse farms play globally. Our favorite part of the tour was the stop at the Old Friends horse farm for retired race horses. It was special to see and be able to feed them.
