Glad I booked it on a whim! - Learned a lot of interesting things about the production of thoroughbred horses. Saw many babies and were able to pet them all and their mamas. Very well cared for which makes you feel good.

Great Experience - This is a very good tour. You see several horse farms including Keenland, which is enormous. We saw horses working out on the track and saw other facilities there. Then we went to another farm where we could pet and interact with yearlings. It was a great experience.

Informative and up close - A fun ride through several horse farms and a race course. Tim was a wealth of information about the breeding of thoroughbreds, and there was no question he could not answer. And, we got to see and pet some pretty friendly horses.

Must do if you’re even curious about horses - This was a fabulous tour and I can’t believe I hesitated about booking this. I got to pet some lovely friendly horses including mares, and their babies (colts, and fillies) on a beautiful private horse farm and I am not much of animal or horse person. We also got to visit Keeneland in the morning and saw a bunch of throughbred horses doing their morning exercises which included trotting and mini sprints. Keenland is hands down prettier than Churchill Downs which I never would have imagined. Go ahead and book this tour if you want to know why Lexington calls itself the horse capital of the world.
