Overview

Discover why Lexington, Kentucky is known as the Horse Capital of the World on this three-hour narrated tour with transportation provided on a comfortable 14-person passenger van. The tour is not all on the van, though, as destination stops are made at world famous Keeneland Race Course* and one or more of the beautiful Thoroughbred horse farms that combine to make the Lexington region the true epicenter of Thoroughbred breeding in the United States ... and beyond. All tours are given by very experienced local guides who share a wealth of stories about the history of the Lexington area, farms, bourbon production and the Thoroughbred breed of horse -- the most desired breed for winning the world's most important and valuable races. * NOTE: All tours can vary depending on changing venue and farm availability on the specific day of the tour. This is true for all of the venues (including Keeneland) and the Thoroughbred horse farms. Thank you for choosing Thoroughbred Heritage Tours!

Nicholas was absolutely fantastic as a stand-in tour guide. His knowledge of behind-the-scenes operations allowed us to see and experience things you would normally never see.
