As recommended by The New York Times, this tour is the best way to discover America's Grandest Victorian Neighborhood. Seven days a week from March 15-November (and select off-season dates) we highlight the eye-popping architecture and fascinating history in one of the country's largest historic districts, Old Louisville. In the late 1880s, as the famous Southern Exposition drew hundreds of thousands of visitors to Kentucky's largest city, bourbon barons, racetrack royalty, and titans of tobacco constructed impressive Gilded Age residences. They left a visual legacy of stone and brick mansions and townhomes that run the gamut of Victorian architectural splendor. Italianate, Richardsonian Romanesque, Châteauesque, Queen Anne, Renaissance Revival, Georgian—these are just some of the styles scattered over 40-square blocks just a mile from downtown Louisville. Daytime tours focus on architecture; evening walks highlight haunted history and legends. Since 2004, we are the ORIGINAL.As recommended by The New York Times, this tour is the best way to discover America's Grandest Victorian Neighborhood.
