Milwaukee Travel Guide

This great Midwestern city is the fifth-largest city in the region and the largest in the state of Wisconsin. Milwaukee, known for its great breweries, has much more than just beer to offer the average visitor (though you should try the beer too!). People in Milwaukee tend to be polite and reserved, but at the same time welcoming and friendly to visitors.

Things to Do in Milwaukee

Head to the Milwaukee Art Museum to see great collections of classical and modern art. The museum is home to one of the largest Georgia O'Keeffe collections in the world. Marvel at the beauty of the Basilica of St. Josaphat or spend a day at the Milwaukee County Zoo. Check out the Harley-Davidson Museum to learn about motorcycle history, design, and biker culture. Pabst Mansion is also a must-see spot for anyone who loves PBR beer.

Historic Third Ward is easily one of the most popular spots in the city, with streets lined by hip restaurants and Milwaukee’s Public Market. Juneau Town, on the other hand, is a hub for young professionals, as well as the home to the Milwaukee Art Museum. Head to Harbor View for creative vibes in an up-and-coming neighborhood, or check out North Shore for the most charming spots of Milwaukee.

Best Time to Visit Milwaukee

The best time to visit the city is in the spring or summer when the temperatures are warm and much more manageable than Wisconsin’s winter cold.
