"Harley Museaum"

This is great for the Family that loves Hogs. They have every kind of bike ever made including the very first one. Make sure to bring your camera. The price is a little high but if you can snag the coupon for buy one get one half off it is well worth it. The ticket prices are $16.00 for ages18-64, ages 5-17 $10.00, and children 5 and under are free. They also have a resturaunt and a gift shop right across the street so make sure you come hungry because the food is great. The other neat thing is the evil kenevil exhibit that they just got very fun and exciting make sure to stop in, Even for a bite to eat.

"Harley Davidson Museum "

The Harley Davidson Museum is amazing if you are a bike lover such as my family.  We visited the museum in summer of 2010 and loved it.  The cost is reasonable $16 for adults and $10 for children for the self guided tour if you want a guided tour it was $4 more.  They museum is open on everyday of the week 10am to 6pm except for on Thursdays they are open till 8pm.  The museum is made up of 20 acres of extraordinary people, products, history and culture of Harley Davidson.  They also offer a bar and grill, a cafe and a Harley exclusive retail shop with amazing Harley items.  I would definitely recommend any Harley Davidson fan or just a motorcycle fan visit this unique museum on the Milwaukee waterfront and also enjoy the wonderful skyline of Milwaukee.

"Hog Heaven"

This is a great place to take your family if they are into motorcyles. The two story musuem has a tons of bikes to look at including some hands-on exhibits. Ride a bike yourself. Across the street from the musuem is the gift shop and restaurant. I recommend the restaurant. Unique warehouse/industrial feel to the restaurant and good food. Can eat inside or out.

"Harley-Davidson Museum is fun for all ages"

Not a motorcycle rider? Doesn't matter. The Harley-Davidson Museum in downtown Milwaukee is a must-see vacation attraction. For the price of admission, which is family friendly, you can leisurely walk through two roomy floors of vintage and breathtaking Harley-Davidson motorcycles, all chronologically displayed in an industrial-type setting appropriately painted black, orange and gray. An employee will urge you to, "Take all the photos you want." Detailed signs explain each display, or you may opt for an audio tour. A free "scavenger hunt" with a prize at the end makes this museum lots of fun for the kids. You'll see a 1903 Harley-Davidson with serial no. 1, Harleys used by the military and police plus racing Harleys on a recreated 1920s board track. Elvis' 1956 Harley-Davidson is there along with the purchase paperwork. So is a replica of the Captain America from "Easy Rider." When you’re finished at the museum, be sure to walk across the street and check out the souvenir shop or dine at either of two fun restaurants, Motor and Cafe Racer.
