Bardstown Transportation

The trolley had been stalled for lack of a driver, but the horse-drawn carriage was doing tours. Bob felt that it was too cold for that, even though they had plastic over the carriage to protect from the wind.

There does not appear to be a website for this organization, but town website says: Open daily. Go back in time with a narrated, horse-drawn carriage tour through Historic Bardstown. Group tours available
