Additional Information
Join us as we journey through the secret tales of Louisville’s haunted history. As you sample food and spirits along Whiskey Row, you’ll encounter the ghosts that inhabit Louisville’s historical city center, follow the trails of bourbon tycoons and gangsters, uncover concealed speakeasies in the heart of Whiskey Row, and uncover the shocking reality of Prohibition.
During the mid-1800’s, the part of Main Street that is now called Whiskey Row was bursting with bourbon barrels – soon to be deemed illicit. Even though this district was close to ruin, it now boasts historic fronts home to bourbon distilleries, taverns, restaurants, and hotels.
The tour features 5 liquor tastings as well as a variety of snack-sized morsels.

Fun time on Prohibition Tour. - Thoroughly enjoyed my evening with Greta. She was very professional, informative and fun. If we are ever back in Louisville I already have her information and will book another tour. Hopefully, they will be able to add on tours of churches.

Tour Canceled but Got Amazing Recommendations - Giving these guys a 5 Star review even though our tour was canceled. Not enough people booked, which happens and we were warned about ahead of time that the minimum is 4. They did offer us other tours to jump on but unfortunately the timing didn’t work out. They were nice enough to share some of their favorite spots with us and we went to them on our own and had a great time. So, bummed we didn’t get to officially experience the tour, but appreciative that they were still willing to help us have the experience!
