Frequently asked questions

How do you choose which tours to review?

I review the most-booked bourbon and Frankfort tours on GetYourGuide, read actual traveller feedback, and tell you what each one is actually like. Only tours with enough real reviews to judge fairly get a full page here.

Are these reviews independent?

Yes. I’m an independent guide, not a tour operator. I earn a small affiliate commission if you book through my links, at no extra cost to you, but that never changes my ratings. See my affiliate disclosure for the full picture.
