🥃 Ron's Pro Tip
"Every group I take out is different, and that's the whole point. Some people want the deep history and production tours. Some want to skip all that and just taste rare bourbons. Some want to hit the big names; others want the hidden gems. That's why every tour we do is built from scratch. Your group isn't like anyone else's."
. Ron, Lead Tour Guide at BourbonTown Tours (3,000+ tours since 2012)

A private bourbon tour is a distillery tour booked exclusively for your group, never combined with strangers. With BourbonTown Tours, you pick the distilleries, and a dedicated guide and driver handle the itinerary, transportation, and tastings so you can focus on the bourbon. Every tour is custom-built there are no fixed routes or shared vans.
Private bourbon tours with BourbonTown Tours start at $275 per person, with most custom full-day tours ranging from $275 to $425 per person depending on group size, distilleries, and inclusions. Transportation, expert guiding, and distillery logistics are included; distillery tour tickets and tastings are typically additional and arranged for you.
You can visit any distilleries on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, including Buffalo Trace, Maker’s Mark, Woodford Reserve, Four Roses, Heaven Hill, Jim Beam, Willett, Castle & Key, and more. BourbonTown Tours builds your itinerary around the distilleries you want, grouped by region so the day flows logically.
Book your bourbon tour at least two to four weeks in advance, and earlier for weekends, holidays, and Derby season. Popular distilleries like Buffalo Trace and Maker’s Mark release limited tour tickets that sell out quickly, so booking early gives you the best choice of distilleries and times.
Yes. Every BourbonTown Tours experience includes private transportation in luxury SUVs or Sprinter vans with a professional driver. You never drive, never navigate, and never worry about getting between distilleries – the driving is fully handled.
Most full-day bourbon tours visit three to four distilleries, which balances tour time, tastings, lunch, and travel between campuses. The exact number depends on the distilleries’ locations and tour lengths; your guide builds a realistic itinerary so the day never feels rushed.
