6 days in Milwaukee Itinerary

Milwaukee boasts well-preserved historical districts with a rich European past and a strong beer-brewing tradition.

Get out of town with these interesting Milwaukee side-trips: Six Flags Great America (in Gurnee), Madison (Wisconsin State Capitol & Olbrich Botanical Gardens) and Sheboygan (Acuity Flagpole & Bookworm Gardens). There's much more to do: examine the collection at Harley-Davidson Museum, stop by Indulgence Chocolatiers, indulge your thirst for a good beer at Miller Brewery Tour, and meet the residents at Milwaukee County Zoo.

To find where to stay, more things to do, maps, and other tourist information, refer to the Milwaukee route planner.
