Things To Do
Bulleit Distilling Co.
If you've never taken a bourbon distillery tour, you need to have this quintessentially Kentucky experience. Bulleit Bourbon is nearby and offers tours.
Jeptha Creed Distillery
If you like options, Jeptha Creed is another distillery experience that comes highly recommended.
Gallrein Farms
Gallrein Farms is an adorable you-pick style farm with a petting zoo. Looks like strawberries may be in season around the end of May!
Talon Winery Tasting Room
If you're more into wine than bourbon, Talon Winery offers tastings.
Claudia Sanders Dinner House
Everyone knows Colonel Sanders and his fried chicken legacy. Claudia Sanders is a great place for that country southern food with that southern charm feel.
Muhammad Ali Center
This museum harbors permanent exhibits about Ali's life and work, as well as some rotating exhibits.
Churchill Downs
If you go to Louisville and don't go to Churchill Downs, did you really go to Louisville? In May, the museum is open daily, and races are held almost everyday, including brunch races on Sundays.
Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory
If baseball is your thing, the Louisville Slugger museum and factory lets you get an up-close look at how the classic wooden bat is made.
Falls of the Ohio State Park
One of our favorite places. Just across the river from Louisville, you can get a lovely view of the city while you walk the fossil beds. The interpretive center is recently renovating and gives an excellent natural history of the area.
