Discover an enchanting way to explore the beauty of Indy’s Downtown Canal Walk with a whimsical Swan Pedal Boat rental from Wheel Fun Rentals. These charming vessels, designed to comfortably accommodate up to five passengers, offer a unique and memorable experience as you glide through the picturesque waterway. Conveniently located in the heart of Downton Indianapolis, visitors and locals will now have the opportunity to enjoy the water by swan boat!

Swan boats are a classic, iconic piece of American history dating back to 1877 when they were first established in the Boston Commons, and then later spread to neighborhood lakes around the U.S by the early-to-mid 1900’s. Swan boats are one of few experiences that have changed so little over time, and now a whole new generation can practically replicate the experience of these iconic boats. Sharing those memories with the young ones makes for an even more special voyage.
