8 days in Indianapolis Itinerary

Indiana's capital and most populous city, Indianapolis is best known for its racecar events and impressive museums, and as the hometown of Kurt Vonnegut.

You'll visit kid-friendly attractions like Children's Museum of Indianapolis and Indianapolis Zoo. Venture out of the city with trips to George Rogers Clark Park (in Covington), The Miller House and Garden (in Columbus) and Louisville (Kentucky Derby Museum & Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory). There's lots more to do: test your team's savvy at popular escape rooms, learn more about the world around you at Creation Museum, look for all kinds of wild species at Exotic Feline Rescue Center, and deepen your understanding of the past and present with a heritage tour.
