I grew up here. This is one of the CLASSIC Chicago haunts where one can find REAL ice cream. They have genuine hot fudge sundaes with a wafer cookie on the...
Amazing place to visit. There were so many fascinating things to see and do. The flight simulators were good, the Spitfire and Stuka were nice to see and being able to walk through the Boeing 727 was very interesting. The best part of out visit was the U-boat. It was so well set up. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and was able to to tell the story of the capture very well. I highly recommend doing the internal tour.
One of the best museums I’ve been to in quite awhile. The U-boat tour and Giant Dome theater movies are awesome. Terrific exhibits and lots of hands-on things. Great for younger and older kids, and grown-ups! Staff were all very nice. Such a fun, engaging museum! Easy to get to from the north side, and easy parking. Worth the trip!
Fabulous museum. Wonderful experience. Loved the interactive nature of almost all the exhibits. Very informative and gave a new perspective on a lot of things we see, use or know about. I spent around 4+ hours but was able to cover only 60+ % or so of all the exhibits. It definitely requires more than 1 day if you want to cover everything thoroughly
An absolutely fantastic and in depth museum! So much to explore and you will be busy there for at least a couple of hours. My only complaint is how many exhibits cost extra to go into (like inside the submarine or the Lego exhibit). However, we enjoyed nearly every section we explored.
