This Kentucky bike vacation includes several fun & relaxing days on some of the best backroads we’ve had the pleasure of riding. Not only are these little country lanes low on traffic, but they’re all postcard-perfect with scenic horse farms set among gently rolling hills framed by row after row of black fences and stone walls. Pure joy to ride in the “Horse Capital of the World!” We’ve also included an afternoon visit to the famed Keeneland track (home of the 2015 Breeder’s Cup) so you can see the horses in action.
But Kentucky is more than just horses and bluegrass. It is also home to an incredible density of bourbon distilleries. They even have a “Kentucky Bourbon Trail,” some of which we will traverse on our bikes. Mixing in a couple of distillery tours with our rides (at the end of course) gives this bike vacation an educational component with a kick!
And in order to ensure that your Kentucky experience is complete, we’re beginning and ending the tour at the Galt House on the waterfront in downtown Louisville, giving you a chance to see the state’s largest city up close and personal. We’ll also ride by the Kentucky state capitol building in the historic town of Frankfort.
From urban Louisville to rural Versailles (just outside of Lexington), this four-night Kentucky bike tour will give you the very best of the state on backroads that are truly a cyclist’s dream.
As with all of our tours, all lodging and meals are included in the price. And with two guides and a maximum of eight guests, you’re guaranteed exceptional personal attention.
