We certainly felt grateful to hear of this city's amazing history. We went to the Speedway, heard about the famous authors, Brad Tarkington, Silverstein, Kurt Vonnegut and saw some beautiful architecture which included Monument Circle, museums, the theatres along Mass Ave, and the canal.

Not Ms. Carrie! She is out there hitting the road, enlightening visitors and showing the sights of Indianapolis to a appreciative audience. Circle City Tours is very flexible and will work with your schedule and timeline. I was picked up downtown for the tour but for a slight fee, Carrie dropped me off at an Airport hotel. I was grateful for her immense knowledge of the city, particularly historical facts. LOVED the trek through lovely Crown Hill cemetery, which is not morbid at all. Carrie pointed out the many grave sites of noted politicians, authors, artists, ex-Presidents and the locally prominent who lie in repose there. The Civil War burial section was also very touching. Ms. Carrie pointed out magnificent churches, memorials, art and children's museum, local eateries (Shapiro's Deli=yummy!) and the White River State Park area. We even got to check out all the Christmas decorations up at the Indy Speedway. She packs a lot into the 3-hour tours but when it's over, you feel a sense of accomplishment that you learned so much about Indianapolis-- a city made all the more beautiful than it already is, by the beautiful ministrations of Carrie and Circle City Tours. 5 YELP STARS.

The yoga was provided by The Hot Room Yoga, and I believe the event was in partnership with Indy Cultural Trail. There was also a local artist, Lily Groot, who was there creating free prints for at least 450 attendees. I got print 13. Honestly, it was such a great event! You could purchase items from Black vegan cafe food truck, while we hung out and watched the sunset. Then around 8:30 PM, we turned on the glow lights they provided and got ready to do yoga under the full moon. The yoga session was about an hour. It was definitely challenging as you really just had to listen on what to do, but it felt so good for my body, mind, and soul. There was something really special about doing yoga outside, surrounded by the Canal, with the sunset fading and the full moon coming out. It was a vibe. I'm really glad I got to experience this! There's another one coming up in September, so if you've never been, you should definitely give it a try, it was free! Such a fun and unique Indy experience!

The Canal Walk is one of the major attraction in downtown Indianapolis. It is a long walkway that…read moreis right along the water of the canal. Several parks, museums, hotels, and other attractions are situated along this walkway. While walking along the canal, I noticed several tourists and locals walking and running through the walkway. The walkway and surrounding public area was mostly clean and well maintained. In one corner there was a paddle swan boats for rental but it was closed for winter. Some of the canal had scaffolding for construction. Some of the signs around the canal provided historical insight about the canal.

Stops on the tour: 1. Rathskeller was the first stop where they provided an wonderful assortment of authentic German food with a beer of choice. 2. The second part was a guided tour through the Lockerbie area. I was amazed that I have lived in Indianapolis for 33 years and had never been to this part of town with so much history. 3. Third stop was at Ralston's they provided two types of flat breads with sweet potato waffle fries. There was an vegetarian flat bread and a pulled pork flat bread that were packed with flavor and tasted great. 4. The forth and final stop was at Bakersfield. This is one of my favorite places to eat with my wife on Mass Ave. I could go on and on about this place but enough people have given reviews on it. 5. At the end of the tour Tia gave each of us a cupcake from Flying Cupcakes. Two words tasty and completely full. This is a must try and will be booking it again.

Getting to work a live beehive with a beekeeper and see the honey extraction process will be unforgettable.

However, There were far too many people on the tour and I honestly couldn't hear some of what he what saying. It was a long time on my old feet but worth every penny. I just wish the group would have been smaller. Also, there were lots of volunteers who helped stop traffic and kept us all on the route. They kept us safe. I appreciated them. If you're having trouble keeping up like me just ride along in your car and get out at the stops to listen to the talks.

It was a little over 9 miles and 3 hours of fun riding through downtown. Nathan, our guide for the day, was very knowledge. After living in the Indy for years, it is amazing the things that you tend to overlook on a daily basis and history of the state that can easily forget/not know. The pace of the tour wasn't fast and very relaxed. There were many stops along the way so it didn't seem like the the ride was that long at all. This coming from a person who hasn't ridden a bike in close to a decade. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a something fun and active to do in downtown Indy.
