Highlight of our Kentucky Trip - Allison was amazing! Such a fun tour learning more about prohibition than I ever knew plus adding in some supernatural stories. Food was delicious and I liked how the drinks were picked out for us based on where we were during the prohibition story and new drinks that I wouldn’t have picked for myself, plus mocktails that were also delicious without missing out on the fun! Definitely the highlight of our trip. We didn’t see any of the stops on searches so we definitely would’ve missed out on spots that were a vibe and that had history. Plus she took photos for us so we could just enjoy the experience - such a nice extra.

This was an excellent tour - Christina was an excellent tour leader. She made the tour interesting and knowledgeable. She was friendly took lots of pictures. And the drinks were phenomenal. My favorite place to go was the Speakeasy hell and high water.

Not the best value - The places we went were nice. The cocktails were not all bourbon drinks and they should have been. Only one cocktail was made with bourbon. I did not feel like this was a good value. I’ve had better guided walking tours. Some interesting stories, but not super entertaining .
