It was much shorter than we expected. Tour guide was fun and funny. We learned about the horses and walked to the grandstands of the track. That was it. The whole tour. She had a lot of information but we didn't get to see much. It was cool to be there and know we were standing in an American Historical tradition. It was humbling but at the same time I wanted more.

Not a track fan. Booked the museum & short tour because it’s what you do when you visit Louisville. Regret now not booking the behind the scenes options. Great guide (nope, can’t remember his name) with a great range of history, stories, and factoids woven together to give a mosaic background that made walking the museum that much more enlightening

We didn't have time to do the tour and lunch so we just went to the museum. Most of my life I have loved horse racing and heard about the Kentucky Derby but never expected to visit. We went to Indianapolis for the Total eclipse. At the museum we took advantage of the facilities, toured the museum, then left. It was an experience worth having.

Took the Back Stretch tour and it was awesome. Brent was a superior guide who was full of fun and information. The entire facility was beautiful and we had the opportunity to see many of the Derby contenders. We got to have access to places we never would have seen if we would have come on our own. The museum was very good and we spent alot of time there. Don't miss the movie!

What a fantastic weekend! We were there for the 150th Derby and it did not disappoint. The venue was expertly run. The staff all helpful and knowledgeable about the arena. It was an exciting time. The costs depend on what type of experience you want. I would use Derby Experiences for these options. This was our first derby, it will not be our last trip to Churchill Downs.

Visiting this museum at Churchill Downs is a must do in Louisville. The 360 degree movie theater is amazing. The film is an excellent history of the Kentucky Derby. The museum displays are informative. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and conducted an excellent tour.

Stopped in on a rainy Friday afternoon. Went to the museum, gift shop and cafe. Small tour is included in museum price. Tour guide was awesome (but I’m bad with names, sorry). Museum was fun the 2 movies were very well put together. Secretariat has his own section of course and so does D Wayne Lukas. They have a quest that kids can participate in and there was a group having a TON of fun doing it. Cafe was tasty and the bartender was awesome. This was a perfect relaxing educational afternoon. Would recommend 100%

We prepurchased our tickets. We went to the museum before the race. It was clean and nice but no one was helpful in finding our seats. We asked 3 different employees but no one would help. We were finally told just go to that area and sit wherever you want.... We knew we were in the front row just past the finish line. We race's were a nice experience. Not as many people as we expected. We do hope to go again in a few year's.

My husband took me here for my birthday. We loved the museum, track tour, and also the barn tour. Brent was our tour guide and he is knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the track, horses and handlers. We arrived early enough to see the morning practices. It was such a cool experience! If anyone is a horse fan, loves to bet, or wants a closer look at what goes on during the Kentucky Derby, I highly recommend visiting.

Churchill downs museum is full of lots information about winners of the Kentucky Derby. We had a tour guide that took us out to the track and was very informative about the race track. We were lucky to see a race that day. Then went back inside and watched a video . No time pressure on how long you stay in the museum
