Explore the NEW BRBN Essential Tours
Building on my experience as a Tour Leader since 2015, my family and I decided to provide a more focused boutique approach to the private tour business. With the strong support of family and friends, we created Louisville-based BRBN Experiences. We strive to be the tour company you select to celebrate milestones in your life. Our focus is on the delivery of a rewarding, entertaining, and educational experience while highlighting the professionalism of the BRBN Tour Leaders.
The best bourbon tours begin with a knowledgeable, professional, and friendly Tour Leader who provides your group with an amazing BRBN Experience. As Executive Stewards of the Stave and Thief Society, BRBN Tour Leaders know bourbon, and the distilling business, while having vast experience in the adult beverage industry. Our Leaders have been real-life bartenders, wait staff, educators, consultants, sales managers, and corporate staff to some of the largest companies in this business. All of our Tour Leaders have had thousands of customer-facing distillery and horse farm tour experiences. Most importantly, we all love the rich heritage of Kentucky, including bourbon and horses.
BRBN Tour Leaders are Kentuckians who are very interested in bourbon and horses as well as the dynamic history and background of the Commonwealth. We are well-spoken professionals, fountains of fun information and always dedicated to ensuring that you enjoy a memorable tour day.

"We booked a last minute private tour. Kevin our driver/guide was nothing short of amazing. He personalized our tour and was extremely friendly and informative. He went over and above what we expected. The distilleries he took us too were just perfect for us. Highly recommend contacting Kevin if you are looking for a tour."
"Kevin was on the spot... Always prepared, arranged a three day experience hitting all the spots necessary to have a memorable tour. He was informative and had each stop planned with excellent recommendations for lunches and included extra shops like the Candy Store who provides the chocolates for the distilleries and Churchill Downs. Wonderful experience and I would do it again! Thanks again for a memorable trip."
"Kevin bent over backward to make sure we had the best tour!! Great tour and would recommend him/BRBN to everyone!"

We visited three different distilleries that were each so unique and fun! Kevin took care of all the details so we could enjoy our friends and the experience of the day!"

Kevin, our guide, was incredibly helpful to us in deciding which distilleries to go to to really get a good “flavor” of Kentucky bourbon. His knowledge and insight of the area, distilleries, history, great spots to grab lunch between distillery visits or check out for dinner in Louisville is amazing….and cherry on the top is that he is a pretty cool guy, too! Highly recommend BRBN experiences to guide your Bourbon trail experience!"

"We had a group of 7 and we did a private tour of 3 distilleries with our driver, Kevin. He was great. He went above and beyond the call of duty when one of our party had an emergency and had to come a little late. He was knowledgeable, personable and an excellent driver."
"My son, son-in-law and I spent a wonderful two days with our driver Kevin on the Bourbon Trail. Kevin was fun and knowledgeable. He gave us some interesting insights into the Bourbon industry.

We visited eight distilleries in our two days and Kevin managed to keep us on a relaxed schedule without ever feeling rushed. We'll remember this experience for a very long time."
"On the trip, they were great, Kevin took care of all of the scheduling and check-ins and gave us some behind the scene knowledge and tips."

"Best of all, our driver Kevin was FANTASTIC -- he knew so much, was a great ambassador, and got us some hard to get Blanton's, even without us asking! I really can't say enough good things. It was awesome."
"We chose to visit a horse farm as well as 5 bourbon distilleries. Kevin drove us around for 2 days in a comfortable Escalade, shared history and facts about the area, and made our two days in Kentucky absolutely perfect!"
"Our driver, Kevin, was the best. He was really relaxed and pleasant and also extremely flexible. But he also did a great job of reorganizing things on the fly when we ran over and had great connections throughout the area that helped us at the local liquor stores and restaurants."
