Highlights

Discover Louisville's Prohibition history on this haunted walking food & cocktail tour in downtown Louisville!


Travel back in time to Whiskey Row during the era of hidden speakeasies to savor handcrafted Prohibition-era cocktails paired with delicious small bites. Along the way, you'll unravel salacious true stories of Prohibition: ruthless bootleggers, Whiskey distillers, mobsters, the Louisville origins of the Great Gatsby, and even an axe-wielding temperance supporter. You'll also hear chilling ghost stories that have left their mark on the city's checkered past.


Our expert guides will transport you to the days of secret bars and underground revelry in Prohibition-era downtown Louisville. One part ghost tour, one part Jazz-Age cocktail tour, this 3-hour immersive experience combines dinner and cocktails with spine-tingling ghost stories and a host of colorful characters from Louisville's bootlegging past. You'll leave with a taste of history- and perhaps a shiver down your spine.
