Go early in the morning to beat the crowds. The Barn and Backside Workout Tour was interesting, but would have been much better if an open air vehicle was the mode of transportation as opposed to the van. It was difficult to see anything, and pretty cramped if the tour is full.
Bought reserve seats under the overhang for $34. Sat next to everyone who paid $17 for exposed seats and simply moved up to the better seats. No one checking tickets.
TARC transportation, the Louis Lift picks up in front of the hotel and will take you to Churchill Downs (with a few stops) for free!
Got there at 10:30am. Tours don't start until 11am
