What travelers are saying
- RugbydoxCleveland, OH325 contributionsWhile I have always been a BMW rider I came to respect and value the product and business that is Harley Davidson. This is an awesome museum that helps pass the traditions and vision that built this American Icon onto the public. The cost is low for the value. Seeing bike #1 and following the history gave me a new respect for the company. I toured it with a long time HOG member and even he learned things. They were truly pioneers and visionaries. We also stayed around and enjoyed food on site. We did spend the $5 for the audio tour which added to the experience. This company really did help to shape the motorcycles that we ride today and I am impressed by the history.Written May 17, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Cathy P3 contributionsI was on a visit to Milwaukee from New England. To begin with, the architecture of this museum is amazing and has to be seen. The location on Lake Michigan makes the setting beautiful. I thought at the most I would spend a couple hours. At 4 hours I had not seen everything. This is a world class museum and if you have any interest in art, should not be missed.Written May 19, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Patty Z3 contributionsalways a good time at American Family Field. Every seat is a good seat, even the "cheap" seats. every level is a different fun experience.Written May 9, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- UjamaatravelChicago, IL53 contributionsGreat tour. Combines history and comedy with fun and drinking beer. What more can you ask for. Love the tour guide Greg. Not really a micro brewery beer lover but tried a variety. The have gluten free beer too. All in all a nice afternoon of fun. Try out the dinner or lunch also.Written May 14, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- minidoxie01Milwaukee, WI52 contributionsMy son and I visited the Zoo on January 6, 2022. Let me say here—it never gets old!! From the Penguin exhibit inside the main entrance, to the inside exhibits—There is a lot to see and do. The animals are all inside—but still captivating. It takes a good half a day to see everything. Bring good walking shoes. Dress warm. And see what the animals do in the winter inside their buildings. Even the monkeys on Monkey Island were having fun. We had a great time!!Written January 16, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- gabececiBrookfield, WI33 contributionsThe Milwaukee Public Museum has a diverse collection of kid friendly exhibits including a Streets of Old Milwaukee that captures the city of a century ago. There is an indoor live butterfly room where kids (and adults) can have butterflies sit on them. There are exhibits of various world wide cultures with life size people shown living in their natural communities. The kids will enjoy the dinosaurs which move and roar as the T-Rex menaces the others. There is an exhibit featuring the newly discovered mammoth from a nearby Wisconsin farm field. I find it best to plan repeat visits to spend more time visiting the various displays, as there is way too much good stuff to see in one visit.Written May 14, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- UjamaatravelChicago, IL53 contributionsBusy busting market with something for everyone. Hold on to your partner or friends cause there is such a variety of foods they will easily be distracted. Giant cookies, spices, flowers, a deli and a wide variety of foods. Ice cream and a great bar. Too much to try in one day.Written May 14, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- freakaZoid220Minneapolis, MN9 contributionsPretty neat. Self guided tour is what you make it. Lots of info in the brochure but the docents are a wealth of info if you just ask! We saw floors one through three and were done in an hour though you could easily spend two if you really jam on this kind of thing. I wish we would have know there is parking on-site.Written May 1, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Anne MThousand Oaks, CA55 contributionsWe went on a Monday and it was pretty crowded I can't imagine a busy day. There is a cookie place with yummy vegan choc. chip cookies. Head upstairs with food for a bit more space.Written April 24, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- gabececiBrookfield, WI33 contributionsThis neighborhood church is a beautiful example of making much with limited funds. The story of how it was built and of the dedication of the parishioners in making it in the style of old European churches is entertaining. Easy parking in the church lot.Written May 14, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- CoachK2525Dedham, MA1,083 contributionsEvery time in area have to stop in as fun people and great history....Honestly not a fan of beer but love the experience!!...Post tour is clearly a highlight and chance to try something!Written April 18, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Lisa PWestminster, MD122 contributionsEven though some of the RiverWalk was closed down, we enjoyed walking along the river and taking in the sights. Of course, the Bronze Fonz is something not to miss.Written April 22, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Lynn SLovettsville, VA5 contributionsWe visited this place for the first time and it was worth the $20. We went on a family weekend (star wars event) and it was crowded, the staff was friendly and the exhibits were great for hands on play for an adult or child. highly recommend the visit.Written October 3, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- laurenruggeri1 contributionGreat Lakes offered an informative (and not too long) tour and a really fun tasting after. Excellent value for the price. Would highly recommend.Written May 18, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
