The Experience

You board the bus at 5th Avenue South in downtown Nashville and settle in for the 1.5-hour ride to Lynchburg. The route passes through Shelbyville—known for Tennessee Walking Horses—then rolls through rolling hills and farmland into Moore County, one of only three Tennessee counties where distilling was legal until recent years. The driver and guide handle the navigation while you watch the landscape change.

At Jack Daniel's Distillery, you disembark and check in with your guide for the 1.5-hour distillery tour. You walk through the historic grounds and learn how the whiskey is made, then head to the George Green Barrel House for the whiskey tastings. If you're on the 9am tour, you'll have roughly an hour and a half afterward to walk the small downtown square of Lynchburg—a five-minute walk from the distillery—grab lunch at one of the local spots, and stop by the White Rabbit Bottle Shop to pick up limited-edition bottles or branded Jack Daniel's items. The 12pm tour doesn't include downtown time, so eat before you board. The bus returns you to Nashville by early evening.

The bus is air-conditioned, and your group travels by coach bus, executive bus, minibus, or 15-passenger van depending on group size. There are no restrooms on board, so plan your bathroom breaks before departure. Tours run in all weather—dress for the conditions. You'll need to climb and descend many steps during the distillery tour, so a moderate level of fitness helps. If you want to dine at Miss Mary Bobo's restaurant in Lynchburg, you'll need to book a reservation in advance on the Jack Daniel's website for 11am and let your driver know when you board.
