This tour is a delight! Rob is engaging and informative. Grabbing a beverage at Tavern on the Point midway is a welcome break. A really fun experience. Thanks!

Rob was a fantastic guide! He provided clear communication about where and when to meet and cheerfully greeted us on arrival. Ours was a small group (just our family of three plus two other guys) which turned out great. Rob’s knowledge was great and he provided an entertaining overview of Indianapolis as we saw the sights. The tour was filled with stories to provide context for what we were seeing and he adjusted the tour a bit as he learned of our interests. Highly recommend this to visitors to Indy!

Excellent experience! We had a great time and learned a lot! Rob was a fantastic guide! Our tour was about two hours long and we walked about 1.5 miles. We stopped in the middle for a break to use the restroom and sample a local brewery.

Rob of Indy Walking Tours did an excellent job walking backwards while talking about the sights we saw, interacted with each person in some way personally, and told us about Indianapolis and some of the complexity and challenges of the city.

My favorite thing when visiting a new city is finding walking tours as a way to fully appreciate the place I’m in. I’ve done tours in multiple US and European cities. This holds up with all my favorites!
