August 8th, 2025
Louisville, KY — Two pillars of Kentucky hospitality are joining forces to elevate bourbon
tourism to a new level of luxury and accessibility. The Legendary Galt House Hotel is proud
to announce an exclusive partnership with Pegasus Tours, the tourism division of Pegasus
Global, to launch The Bourbon Social™, a series of immersive, high-end bourbon
excursions, beginning August 21, 2025.
This partnership unites two brands synonymous with Kentucky heritage, Southern
hospitality, and exceptional guest experiences. The Galt House—Louisville’s only
waterfront hotel and a destination in its own right—now becomes the departure point for
Pegasus Tours’ expertly curated bourbon trail adventures.
Bourbon Social Tours will run every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, offering guests
insider access to world-renowned distilleries, scenic countryside drives, and behind-the-barrel stories that define the Commonwealth’s signature spirit.
“This partnership blends the best of Kentucky,” said Carey Fieldhouse, President and CEO of Pegasus Global. “Our guests don’t just ride with us—they experience bourbon culture in a way that’s thoughtful, luxurious, and distinctly local. The Galt House Hotel provides the perfect launch point for these Bourbon Social™ journeys.”
Josh Zik, President and CEO of AJS Hotels, added, “As the heartbeat of downtown Louisville, we’re thrilled to expand our guest experience beyond the hotel by partnering with Pegasus Tours. Together, we’re creating an unforgettable gateway to bourbon country.”
With a shared commitment to world-class service, local authenticity, and story-driven
tourism, Pegasus Tours and the Galt House Hotel are redefining what it means to explore
the Kentucky Bourbon Trail®. Guests can expect luxury transportation, passionate guides,
and handpicked stops that go beyond the expected—bringing Kentucky’s most celebrated
export to life.

Additional dates and custom tour packages will be announced in the coming months as
demand grows.
