The experience

The tour opens with a complimentary .50ml pour of Jack Daniels No. 7 and a signature shot glass for every adult traveler before you even reach the distillery gates. From there, the guide escorts you through check-in for the 1 p.m. official tour, where you can photograph most of the grounds. The high barley warehouse has stairs and is not wheelchair accessible, but the rest of the distillery is. After the tour, those booking the tasting session move into the tasting rooms to sample Jack Daniels whiskey. You can also purchase an engraved bottle as a keepsake.

The route then heads into downtown Lynchburg, where the town square becomes your shopping hub. The local winery showcases handcrafted wines from two regional families and growers, with sweet and semi-sweet options for any preference. The Jack Daniels retail shop stocks official merchandise: T-shirts, shot glasses, scarves, hats, and even authentic whiskey barrels. Next door, the Jack Daniels Candy Company sells Whiskey Cake (a recipe from the early 1900s, later spiked with Jack Daniels by Billy Thomas), Whiskey Balls in milk chocolate, and Lynchburg Whiskey Praline Pecans. Miss Mary Bobo's Restaurant, owned by Jack Daniels Distillery and located in the heart of the square, serves all-you-can-eat Southern cuisine (cream chicken casserole, BBQ pork country ribs, mac and cheese, fried okra, peach cobbler, and fried chicken) with a gift shop attached if you want to take home extra goodies.

The full outing runs roughly seven hours from pickup to return, with private transportation and an air-conditioned vehicle throughout. Lunch at Miss Mary Bobo's is optional and paid separately. Wine tasting at the Lynchburg winery runs from $6.95 to $9.95 per glass if you choose it. The tour suits travelers 21 and older and is accessible for all fitness levels, though stair-heavy sections of the distillery are not wheelchair accessible.
