Hyatt Place (Two Night Stay)

The Hyatt Place Bowling Green is located on the beautiful hilltop campus of WKU. Hyatt Place Bowling Green is a newly constructed, next generation hotel offering casual hospitality in a contemporary atmosphere.  

Cave Boat Tour (Two Tickets)

Your tour begins with a leisurely stroll in the valley as your guide shares the tale of the blue hole and disappearing Civil War soldiers. When you board the boat at the cave entrance, prepare to duck your head for just a moment before the passage opens into an enormous cathedral-like cavern.

Historic RailPark and Train Museum (Two Tickets)

Long before interstates, people visiting Bowling Green arrived at the L&N Passenger Depot constructed from Warren County limestone. This 1925 structure has been restored and revived to house a two-story self-guided museum where visitors can learn the history of the tracks by asking questions of a "real Railroader" through interactive galleries. Exhibits highlight the African American experience during segregation, the Civil War and the Railroad, the Business of the Railroad, and showcase items used in the individual railcars.

Housing one of the region's largest model railroad displays inside, outside is where the Historic Railpark currently displays seven restored cars for touring including an E8A Diesel Locomotive, a 1911 L&N Presidential Office Car, a 1949 Pullman Dining Car, a 1953 Luxury Pullman Sleeper and a 1921 Post Office Car. Also on display are a rare Jim Crow Segregation Car, a WWII Hospital Car and a Chessie Class Caboose.
