We had Sean as our tour guide & what an experience! He is full of information about the industry, local farms, as well as, the Lexington area in general. Could listen to him tell stories for hours!

Sean Washington - one of a kind. We had only one day left in Lexington, and it was Sean's day off. Nothing seemed to fit both our schedules, my wife was very disappointed as Unique Horse Tours had come so highly recommended by the National Horse Center. A few minutes later, Sean called back and said he would meet us at local hotel - it was the beginning of an amazing day. Sean is unique - knowledge (check); access (check), great stories (check), knows the horses by name (check), knows the owners, grooms, and stable hands by name (check), van - clean, well maintained, and comfortable (check). My wife is the horse person, I am not. However, seeing the industry through Sean's eyes gave me a new appreciation for the heart and soul of the Kentucky racing industry and the horses. Do not miss a chance to be with Sean.

What an amazing experience!!!! Sean was a great tour guide who showed us great scenery, wonderful horses and most of all incredible stories. Sean showed us not only public properties, but he treated us private farms that were amazing to experience. I will highly recommend this trip to family and friends for sure.
