While in town for Family Weekend at UK, we decided to take the Unique Horse Farm Tours. It was the best part of our weekend! Shaun was an excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable of all the horse farms in the area and had many, many great stories to tell. It was apparent that he also has a love for horses. We visited a few farms in the area and got a personal tour of some of their facilities. This tour is definitely one that we will take again as there are many horse farms in the area and no two tours seem to be alike. We can't wait to visit again and bring more family members with us!

A tour is only as good as its tour guide as most people know. With that being said Shaun was amazing with a great knowledge of the local horse farms and horses. During the trip Shaun's stories were entertaining and most of all very funny, so the comedy was great, I would highly recommend this tour based on the fact that Shaun does an excellent job and gets you right up close with the horses and the interesting people at the farms that you will encounter on this tour. The farms were beautiful as were the horses and to see behind the scenes of the busy horse world of was an amazing experience that we will never forget. Thank You very much To the Kentucky horse park, and our tour guide Shaun...

this was the best horse farm tour we have gone on. Shaun Washington is so knowledgeable about the horses, the history and the horse farms. We saw some beautiful farms and horses that you could go up to and pet, from babies to horses in training to pregnant mares. If you go on any tour you have to go on Unique Tour with Shaun Washington. He also like the Boston Celtics. thanks Shaun for a wonderful tour. We will be back.
