6. Indianapolis

If you desire to travel on a budget as a senior, you should put Indianapolis on your list of travel destinations for 2024. Why? Let’s see. Well, first of all, it will take 20 years after April 8, 2024, for Americans to witness a total solar eclipse once more.

NASA has designated Indianapolis, which is located in the “path of totality,” as an authorized eclipse viewing location. Wow! This is the number one reason to book your trip to Indianapolis ASAP.

Furthermore, the space agency will stream live from the $15 entrance to Indianapolis Motor Speedway, while additional festivities will be held for free in various parks and museums across the city.

Between June 15 and 23, Indianapolis will also host the Olympic swimming trials. Tickets can be bought, starting at about $56. You’re not a fan of this sort of stuff? No problem, because Indianapolis also offers plenty of recreational outdoor activities for seniors! Some of them are:

Renting kayaks and canoes to use on the White River (from $20) and bicycle rides. The good news is that the city plans to finish a $100 million renovation of its vast bicycle network by 2024. More kilometers of fun! Yay.

  1. I’m 74, living on a military retirement, and social security. After taxes, Medicare, rent, utilities, and groceries, we barely have enough to go across the street.
    We aren’t the only ones in our situation. Our budget is tight and we’ve had to cut most of our budget.
    So unless you were pretty well off before retirement there is no way to enjoy these things.
