3 days in Lexington Itinerary

Known internationally as the "Horse Capital of the World," Lexington boasts a thriving economy resting largely on its thoroughbred racehorse industry.

You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Unique Horse Farm Tours and Raven Run Nature Sanctuary. Bring the kids along to Kentucky Bourbon Trail and Spas. Take a break from Lexington with a short trip to Daniel Boone's Grave in Frankfort, about 40 minutes away. There's much more to do: examine the collection at Aviation Museum of Kentucky, explore the galleries of Mary Todd Lincoln House, appreciate the extensive heritage of Waveland State Historic Site, and get engrossed in the history at Hopemont.
