Our group of four—two seasoned couples—just had the most unforgettable adventure with BLE at the 2025 Running of the Bulls. From the moment we landed, BLE had us on a beautifully orchestrated schedule that somehow managed to feel like both VIP treatment and a laid-back vacation. Walking tour? Check. VIP balcony views for the opening ceremony? Yes, and we felt like royalty—minus the crown but plus sangria. And yes, we ran with the bulls… twice! (Bucket List item? Checked so hard it’s got a dent.) Let’s just say the bulls weren’t the only ones running—we were running on excitement, laughter, and a steady supply of tapas. The dinners? Chef’s kiss. The bullfight? Intense and unforgettable. The hotel? Perfectly placed—close enough to walk, far enough for some peace (and naps). Honestly, it’s clear BLE knows what they’re doing—this definitely wasn’t their first rodeo. The Bucket List team was with us every step (and sprint) of the way, making sure we were safe, smiling, and soaking in every moment. Big ol’ shoutout to the BLE crew—you rock! If you’re reading this, you’re probably deep in research mode. Well, you can officially stop Googling. We used to think the Running of the Bulls was just for thrill-seeking dudes—but surprise! We gals had the time of our lives. We met amazing people: couples young and… distinguished, sisters on an epic girls’ trip, Aussies, Europeans, solo adventurers—you name it. The energy, the crowd, the culture—it’s like nothing else on Earth. We’ve been fortunate to travel the world, and this trip is firmly in our top tier. Totally worth every penny—for the memories, the peace of mind, and the epic stories we’ll be telling at dinner parties for years.

My wife and I just returned from a wonderful couple of days at the San Fermin Festival in Pamplona Spain with the Bucket List Event team. 20 years ago I attended with my brother and we had a nice time, but this trip was over the top. The Bucket List team took care of every detail and I can say the exceeded our expectations in every aspect. We are now trying to decide what is our next adventure with this first class organization. Thank you Toby and team.

It was a hassle free experience. Booking was easy and Toby was available for questions over the phone. Once we made it to Pamplona, staff was friendly, everything was very well organized and timely. Very experienced and fun crew. I want to do this again!!!!

It was my first time to go to the Kentucky Derby and it was amazing!! Thank you so much to Ben, who was our coordinator. He answered all our questions and anticipated many of them with great detailed instructions. We did the add on excursion of visiting a horse farm and bourbon distillery and I’m so glad we did. Also, the Barnstable Brown party on Friday night was so fun and derby was perfect!! This was one of the best experiences of my life. It was my first derby, but definitely not my last!! Make sure you use these guys to plan your trip. It will be first class all the way!!

Our Kentucky Derby experience was perfect. It started with setting up the trip. Brian made it easy and gave many helpful suggestions. Then Ben took over in Louisville. Welcoming us on Thursday and making sure we had everything we needed. Derby Day went off without a hitch. Ben made sure we knew what to expect at the track and later checked on us at our box to assure all was well. We asked for everything when we planned this trip and Bucket List Events delivered. We would not hesitate to use Bucket List Events for any of our adventures.

Our Kentucky Derby weekend couldn’t have been more perfect! The accommodations were great, the horse farm and bourbon distillery tours were an absolute blast, and the Barnstable party was one of the best we’ve ever been to. It was a weekend full of fun, laughter, and memories we’ll never forget.

We booked the Kentucky Derby through Ben at Bucket List events this year and had an absolutely amazing time. Everything went flawlessly and smooth from start to finish. Ben and his crew made sure every detail was perfect and that made the Derby for us truly a bucket list event that will never be forgotten.

Our experience with Ben and Bucketlist at the Kentucky Derby was absolutely amazing! Ben’s attention to detail was commendable. This experience exceeded all of expectations! Everything was planned, well thought out and executed. We made many friends. Mike was a fabulous tour guide! Fun! Although a Bucket List item- I can’t wait to donor again 😄!
