The tour of the Keeneland Race Track and property was excellent. One could watch the training jockeys work out the horses early in the morning and the rest of the operation was very interesting. Great guide. Interesting view inside the horse racing industry and gambling on same.

Spectacular tour! Unbelievable access to top-shelf facilities as well as the horses themselves. Our guide, Jeff, was supremely knowledgeable - not only on Thoroughbreds, but also on the local history and area 'players' key to the market arena. A must see!

DIANE_M

I loved the scenery & horses w/ colts! Our tour guide was very nice & informative. Our group was blessed to stop at a vet. hospital & see a horse having surgery.

This tour led by Michael was an eye opener. For folks that knew little about raising and training thoroughbred horses, the experience of four farms and multiple barns under Michael’s experience and tutelage made for a great afternoon experience! I highly recommend this tour and hope Michael shows you around and shares his third generation farm hand knowledge and stories!

Our tour was on. Saturday morning and Shawn was awesome. His knowledge of horses, farms and the equine industry was great. He had unique stories to share. I’ve toured many farms in Lexington and not many farms allow you to get up close to touch and give treats (provided by the tour guide! don’t bring your own treats!!!) to the horses! Each farm visited was unique. I would definitely recommend doing this tour! It is well worth the money!
