Had wonderful time. Captain Nathan allowed my 5 year old grandson to "navigate" the boat for about 20 minutes. He made the day for my grandson as he called him Captain Henry. This is the second tour I have done. Both times I have walked away with an appreciation for how these tours are both informative and entertaining.

The whole tour was very memorable. The information about the river and the bourbon industry was fascinating. We learned thing about Frankfort and surrounding areas that we didn’t know.
