Louisville Tourist Attractions

Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory

Rental cars in Louisville are great for getting to this exciting museum to see the impact the Louisville Slugger bat had on baseball. Tour the factory where the legendary bats are made, see the 120-foot-tall replica of Babe Ruth’s bat, and try the batting cages.

Kentucky Derby Museum

The Kentucky Derby Museum features popular exhibits about the famous race, including the largest horseshoe as verified by Guinness World Records. Admission also includes a walking tour of the Churchill Downs racetrack. Unless you brought a horse, rent a car in Louisville to get you to the 147-acre track and museum.

Rush hour traffic occurs daily from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM and between 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM, especially on US-31W, I-65, and the Gene Snyder Freeway. If you drive during these times, you may experience traffic congestion and delays, so plan your day accordingly.
