T & D Machine

Order tickets in advance or hop aboard a daily public cruise on the Milwaukee Boat Line, which offers the only excursion vessels approved to travel the Milwaukee River, Harbor and Lake Michigan. Take in the beauty of Mil Town and its waterfront aboard an expedition-style yacht, Milwaukee's largest tour vessel or a vintage double-decker.

Visit one of the largest public museums in the United States. The Milwaukee Public Museum is home to interesting exhibits and attractions that will interest everybody. Learn about the past, from the people who roamed the Streets of Old Milwaukee to the dinosaurs who roamed before streets existed. Stroll through a lush garden and interact with the butterflies that call it home. Get a breathtaking view of the night sky and explore outer space at the Planetarium.

Revel in luxury on a romantic date at the Pfister Hotel, the premier downtown hotel and epitome of grand elegance. Built in 1893, you will be astounded by the extraordinary architecture and amazed by the extensive Victorian art collection. Just three blocks from the shores of Lake Michigan, the Pfister is surrounded by dining and nightlife options that you and your loved one will enjoy.

Travel back in time as you listen to the 50s-style jazz music at The Jazz Estate, a Milwaukee jazz landmark and entertainment venue that has been around since 1977. Enjoy live music on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights (as well as weekly drink specials on Monday). The Estate has hosted nationally famous jazz players like Harry Connick Jr., Clyde Stubblefield and Jill Henderson, as well as local jazz favorites.
