Museums in the USA:
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
10
National Memorial and Museum September 11
10
I suggest allowing at least 3 hours for your visit—there's so much to see, and you don't want to rush through it.
After exploring the museum, take some time to walk around the memorial pools outside. It's a peaceful way to reflect, and it's free!
The Museum of Modern Art
9.7
My advice is to download the MoMA app before arriving. It has great information about the exhibits and can help you navigate better without spending money on a guide.
Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History
9.7
I suggest arriving right when the museum opens at 10 AM to beat the crowds. It gets super busy later in the day, and you'll have a better chance to enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed.
Check out the eating options outside the museum instead of within it. The food court nearby has a variety of choices that are often cheaper and much tastier
USS Midway Museum
9.7
If you're on a budget, look for combo tickets with other attractions nearby. I saved some cash that way. Totally worth it!
Wynwood Walls
9.7
Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum
9.5
I suggest going on a weekday if you can. The weekends can get pretty crowded, and I found it easier to explore the exhibits with fewer people around.
Space Center Houston
9.5
If you're planning to see the 3D movie, make sure to catch it first thing around 10 AM. The lines for that can get crazy later in the day!
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!
