You know who Fodor’s is, right? You don’t?!? Ok, I didn’t either, until I looked it up and found out that they’re the “world’s largest publisher of English language travel and tourism information” so… they’ve got that going for them.
Well, since they obviously know a thing or two about great places to select for travel, it makes sense that the world loves Louisville because, well… Louisville is awesome!
Fodor’s made sure to include Louisville, Kentucky (a special highlight to bourbon) as part of their Go List 2015. Here’s part of what they had to say.
Why Go Now: Amid the ongoing bourbon renaissance, Kentucky is ready for its close-up. In the rolling hills outside Louisville, bourbon distilleries give memorable tours through historic warehouses and production facilities, topped with flavorful tastings of the state’s signature drink. You can visit a handful of distilleries and still have time for a late-afternoon horse ride through the Kentucky bluegrass. In Louisville, the foodie scene continues to thrive, whether in high-end restaurants like Proof on Main or hipster joints like Garage Bar. At night, hit the Urban Bourbon Trail to sample some of the brands you missed during your distillery tours. Along with sleek hotels like 21C Museum Hotel and top-notch museums, there’s everything you need here for an eventful long weekend.
Sounds like they mean business. Gotta get in on that hot, bourbon action people.
