Getting around Frankfort

Frankfort is the state capital in Franklin County, in the Kentucky River valley between Louisville and Lexington. The capitol, downtown, and the Buffalo Trace side of the river are different pickup zones, and government schedules do not match a nightlife clock.

I-64 is the spine from Louisville. US-127 through the valley is slower and easier to miss a turn on, so the itinerary should name the building, not just Frankfort.

The roads that matter for a Frankfort pickup are I-64, US-127, and US-60. Near the Kentucky Capitol, the chauffeur plans the curb before the day, not at the door.

What Frankfort books most

Frankfort trips usually look like this: capitol and agency meetings, Buffalo Trace-area bourbon stops, and connections onward to Lexington or back to SDF.

Party bus rental from Frankfort works like party bus rental in Louisville, KY: the bus comes to your first address, follows the stops you name, and brings the group home, whether the night is dinner downtown, a concert at the KFC Yum! Center, or a birthday.

Game days are a big part of the calendar. UofL games at L&N Stadium and UK games at Kroger Field in Lexington are booked as a round trip with a set pickup point after the game, and the same plan works for a Yum! Center show.

Airport runs to SDF are planned around the flight, and private flights are met at the FBO. Distillery days on the Bourbon Trail and visits to Kentucky and Indiana wineries are chauffeured: you book your own tours and tastings, and we drive.

For a funeral, we provide a family limousine or SUV with a chauffeur in a suit, coordinated with your funeral home. For weddings, chauffeurs also wear suits; for other trips they wear black polos.

Prom and homecoming in Frankfort

Prom and homecoming nights from Frankfort usually start with pictures at the Kentucky State Capitol and the Floral Clock on the Capitol grounds, the Old State Capitol downtown, and the Kentucky River from the Singing Bridge. Some sites keep their own photo rules, so check before the group arrives. Dinner is often the restaurants along Broadway, Main Street, and St. Clair Street downtown.

Capitol photos are a Frankfort tradition, and the grounds can be busy on dance nights, so a group that wants the Floral Clock should arrive a little early. A parent or another adult books the trip, student nights are alcohol-free and smoke-free, and the chauffeur has the parent's phone number.
