Everything about this tour was just great! The captain was a expert historian of the River, Kentucky, and the bourbon industry. We learned many interesting things. We enjoyed the beauty of the River , and being outdoors. We learned so much we want to do it again so we can remember it all!

Fun and interesting for out-of-towners and locals. Relaxing way to get a taste of boating on the Kentucky River. We were delighted to receive the complimentary Kentucky-made treats on board. We appreciated Captain Nate and Captain Allison pointing out the riverside and other restaurants. We stopped for snacks afterwards at Goodwood.
