About this tour

Indianapolis’s rise as an NFL city began with a bold civic gamble. On this self-guided Indianapolis Podcast Tour, The House That Peyton Built, follow the story through the places that shaped the city’s sports identity.

Walk a 2.9 km route with six stops, starting at a concrete plaza where city leaders tested their amateur sports strategy. Continue to the vanished footprint of the air-pressurized RCA Dome, follow game-day energy along Georgia Street, and see Lucas Oil Stadium’s brick facade. The route also passes St. Elmo Steak House, whose century-old dining room offers a glimpse of the city beyond the stadiums. Along the way, podcast-style audio from experts and locals explores how Peyton Manning helped turn a basketball heartland into an NFL powerhouse, while also examining the public costs behind the story.

Use the app’s precise navigation and interactive guide as you explore at your own pace. Start when you’re ready and discover the people, places, and decisions behind Indianapolis’s sports legacy.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
