Greeted by Jay and driver, I want to say Brian apologies if that's wrong. Straight away the atmosphere was up as Jay got everyone involved sharing tales and of course music tastes. Very serious quiz and shots followed to make what could have been a very somber drive pass quickly. Took us a drive by tour of Lynchburg to show where we would eat and where the good shops were then off to the distillery where we were handed off to the your guide. Rooster, that was his name, was very good lots of tales and info always with a joke, ending with the heart of the tour the tasting, doesn't look like much but can catch you out. Great BBQ sandwiches for lunch then time for shopping before back on the bus home. Jay entertained us with his guitar and a good selection of songs good mix rock and country. Disparate group brought together by a great guide we were all able to laugh at ourselves and each other, except a couple for whom the tasting was a little too much and went to sleep. A great day out and the journey which could have been just a bus trip was a show both ways adding to the experience. Would certainly recommend this

We had the best day with Jay! The energy he brought to the bus to and from the distillery made the whole experience so much fun. He made it feel really personal for every single one of us. We sang, played quizzes to win miniature Jack Daniel’s bottles, got to know each other, and laughed the entire time. The journey flew by and never once felt long or boring.
The Jack Daniel’s tour itself was really interesting, and the BBQ afterwards was delicious too.
Thank you, Jay, for such a fantastic day and for making our Nashville trip so memorable!
All the best,
Chelsee & Josh

If you’re looking for the best way to start and end your JD distillery tour then don’t choose any other host than Jay and the Tipsy Tour team. They are fun , clever, hospitable and energetic to make the start and end to the trip the highlight of the day with interaction, personalisation and bags of fun….. plus music and liquor - what’s not to like !
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Woohoo! Thank you!
Daniell_B, Nov 2025
Jay was amazing. I travel a lot and have done multiple tours and this is one of the best tours I have ever taken, plus the BBQ lunch included. Our favorite was Jay, he kept us entertained from the minute we got on the bus to when we got dropped off. Trivia, music, introductions. Worth every penny.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Wow! Thank you for the kind words!

Our activity Manager Jay was awesome …during the entire trip. He made everyone feeling good and including in this trip…was a lot of fun. Tour in the distillery was great as well with Kayla…who is very knowledgeable, informative and passionate by her job.
Lunch was average…too many people in the restaurant.
Great tour overall!!!

Tour was cancelled and I never received a cancellation notiice from Viator or Tipsy tours.
We showed up at meeting place and I had to call tipsy tours to find out the tour had been cancelled. I was told I would be getting a full refund.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
We are so sorry you had this experience and this is not indicative of Tipsy Tours. Our entertainer is sick, so we initiated the cancellation with Viator early Friday morning, as well as sent a message to the customer via the Viator messaging option. We will be following up with Viator to understand why they did not notify you immediately. We truly hope you were able to salvage the day.

Our group of friends (ages 35-45) recently went on a girls' trip, and I can't emphasize enough how impressed we were with every aspect of our experience on Tipsy Tours! From start to finish, the level of punctuality, professionalism, politeness, humor, and pure TALENT was top-notch. Jay and his wife run this tour, and they do an absolutely phenomenal job.
The journey to the distillery is far from boring—Jay has an incredible voice and is a talented musician, making the drive entertaining and enjoyable. Once we arrived at the distillery, the tour was informative, entertaining. We were all blown away by the story of Mr. Jack Daniel and his incredible legacy. The entire tour gave us a new-found respect for whiskey.
After the tour, we enjoyed a delicious meal at BBQ Caboose, serving up traditional Southern comfort food, exactly what we needed after a day of tasting whiskey. The pulled pork was out of this world—tender, flavorful, and absolutely satisfying.
I highly recommend Tipsy Tours! You won't be disappointed!
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Hey Loretta! It was awesome having y’all with us for the day. You girls had so much energy and were ready for fun from the moment we started. Thank you for the kind words!
Christopher_M, Nov 2024
This is a fantastic experience.
The ride to the distillery is more than half the fun! We sang, danced and told stories the whole way.
Highly recommended. So much fun AND we learned a ton about the Jack Daniel distillery…and, of course, the tasting was delicious.
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Chris! You da man! We really enjoyed having you all today. Thank you for the kind words!
