This was so much fun and I learned a lot of history. Just cruising down the river and seeing the city and the landscape from a totally different perspective was great. The Captains are fun and know their local history. Even on a hot humid afternoon, it was a pleasant ride up and down the river. I am definitely coming back for one of the other tours. This is a must in Frankfort!

Very informative we learned a lot about the river and and the bourbon industry. Kentucky is known for its bourbon and there are lots of distilleries along the river. Great Historical information about the capital and it's well worth the time and money. Captain Nathan and his bride we're very entertaining and educational.
