Discover the Bourbon Trail

Bourbon Trail Transportation — Your Distilleries, Our Driver

🥃 Ron's Pro Tip

"If you're booking transportation only, make your distillery reservations at least 2-3 weeks out. Buffalo Trace and Maker's Mark fill up fast, especially on weekends. And build in more time between stops than you think — 45 minutes between distilleries is tight. An hour is comfortable."

— Ron, Lead Tour Guide at BourbonTown Tours (3,000+ tours since 2012)

Looking for a designated driver for a distillery tour trip you’ve already mapped out? BourbonTown Tours specializes in transportation services for groups who are in town traveling the trail.

Transportation means we provide the driver and vehicle. You plan the itinerary and handle your own distillery reservations. A Custom Tour means we plan everything for you: itinerary, reservations, guide, tastings, all included. Transportation starts at $100/hour. Custom Tours start at $275/person.

Our fleet includes Cadillac Escalades (up to 6 guests), Mercedes Sprinter vans (up to 14 guests), and luxury SUVs. All vehicles are clean, comfortable, and stocked with water and snacks.

Our drivers know the Bourbon Trail well and can suggest distilleries with walk-in availability, but reservation assistance is included with Custom Tours, not Transportation-only bookings. If you want us to handle reservations, consider upgrading to a Custom Tour.

Most groups book 6-8 hours for a full day visiting 2-4 distilleries. Half-day bookings (3-4 hours) work well for 1-2 stops. We recommend building in 60-90 minutes per distillery plus 30-45 minutes of drive time between stops.

Yes. We provide airport pickup from Louisville International (SDF) and can coordinate with your arrival time. Many fly-in guests book transportation for their first day and upgrade to a full Custom Tour for day two.
