Museums in Chicago:
The Art Institute of Chicago
9.4
Make sure to wear comfy shoes. This place is huge and I regretted wearing my stylish sneakers after a few hours of walking!
Museum of Science and Industry
9.2
I suggest checking out the special exhibits first when you enter. They tend to get busier later in the day. I missed out on a cool one the later I waited.
If you’re interested in the U-505 submarine, make sure to reserve a ticket in advance. I waited too long and ended up missing that exhibit, which was a bummer!!!
Field Museum
9.1
Chicago Children's Museum
6.2
I think visiting on a Wednesday or Thursday can save you from long weekend lines. We went midweek and practically walked right in!
Museum Of Contemporary Art Chicago
5
If you plan to visit the café, my advice is to try the seasonal specials. They were surprisingly delicious and not overpriced compared to other museum venues.
Robie House
2.6
I suggest booking your tickets online in advance to skip the long lines. I didn't do that, and I wasted a lot of time waiting. The house is super cool, but getting in took forever!
Adler Planetarium
1.7
Make sure to check out the schedule for the live shows before you go. I missed the one I wanted because I didn't plan it out and it would’ve been so worth it!
