Milwaukee is a wonderful city.
I really do love Milwaukee. It's truly a hidden gem that very few know about. Thanks for the great content! See you in our travels!
This video made me so happy! I'm originally from Milwaukee and had to move away for work, and to see your enthusiasm for all the things that make Milwaukee great made me smile and made me proud! Milwaukee is such a great, underrated city so it's awesome to see it being appreciated like it deserves! You missed out on all the great Mexican food though on the South Side, next time you're there you have to check those places out!
Unfortunately my experience was shitty. (I live in West Allis now, which is part of milwaukee country, but still it’s different) lived in the hood, massive shithole full of assholes and idiotic cops that can’t do their jobs.
Best Mexican food in the US. I’m a truck driver have yet to find a place to compare
Milwaukee has some major problems with crime and being in the top 10 most dangerous cities in the US but I still love the city and its my favorite in the midwest and where I grew up. So many awesome breweries and lots of cool neighborhoods.
I’ve lived next door in MN my whole life and have never been to Milwaukee, though I have traveled by on my way to IN. I’ll be joining you all on the road come January!
I want to share that yes, the winter can be cold, as winter is meant to be, but it’s really quite enjoyable as well, whether you are an inny or an outy ;) I’m an inny, mostly. After many decades, I’ll be leaving the four seasons to follow moderate temperatures. I love your travels and videos. I’ve been living vicariously through you for a while now and enjoying it thoroughly. Great inspiration. Thank you for sharing🙏🏻
Milwaukee is one of my favorite cities also! My favorite pizza in Milwaukee is at Zaffiro’s Pizza east side of town it has been their since 1954.
False. Best is San Giorgio's.
Philip Tarnaski yes i love that pizz
That shits fye
Yes! The original Zaffiro’s is MUST for any visitors
Good choice, if you’re ever back or in town, try out balistreri's pizza in Wauwatosa on 68th street. Incredible Italian food and great service. They’ve been there for many years as well. Authentic and easily one of the best Italian restaurants in town.
So nice to see my hometown highlighted and enjoyed your positive take on the city. I still live here and agree the city has a lot to offer. You highlighted some of my favorite spots like Blue’s, Rocket Baby, and Transfer Pizza. My brother works as a tour guide at Lakefront Brewery which has a reputation for fun filled tours. You mentioned winters. The city takes on a different persona in the winter but there is still a lot to do. The changing seasons in the Midwest is one of the things I love about living here. Hope you come back to visit again.
Hi friends... I work in a boat... I been there in milwaukee... Beautiful place... Keep rocking
Great video! My Father grew up in Gays Mills, WI (about 100 miles from Milwaukee) & I'm planning on being there in a few weeks.
I remember the first time I had a cheese curd - I was 6 years old & thought it was so funny that they squeaked!
It’s all fun and games until it’s winter time lol
I live in Milwaukee and never knew you could do all these things here🤣🤣🤣
Lmao on what though, I feel that
Lol yeah this makes it seems so much more touristy that I ever realized
Right! Toursists having more fun in my city than I am- the hell!?
I am from Milwaukee but live in boulder, what a great video! very nostalgic
That Milwaukee skyline is beautiful
The Live Glockenspiel performed had me hysterically laughing and crying, as I remember living in Heidelberg Germany!!!
I grew up in Milwaukee, so this video was pretty nostalgic for me. One thing I just don't understand though: how do you go to Milwaukee and not try the frozen custard? Oh my goodness what a treat you missed out on! Go back! Go back!
Great vid, lots of cool places to visit. Wisconsin is beautiful all year round!
Nice!! Thank you for the great video! Can't wait to visit Milwaukee! Also your husky is so adorable and he looks like he's having a great time! Thank you, from Los Angeles CA.
What a great walking tour. The food looked so good.
Kate, you're so cute. 🥰 I'm moving to Milwaukee to be with my boyfriend and this is giving me great date ideas! Thank you!
LOVED the food and beverage tour! Always love, love a good bakery.
and also some good butter with the bread
another good reason to in this city because this city really close to the dells
I've lived in 17 cities/towns in the USA, and 4 foreign countries. I like living in Milwaukee the best. (Believe it or not!)
It's a very cool city!
If you ever get back to Milwaukee. Two must stops are A & J Polish Deli 1215 W. Lincoln and Kegels German Pub 5901 N. National Ave.
So nice to see a piece of home highlighted so nicely!
I love this video. Thanks for sharing it, guys. Since my daughter will most probably go to Marquette University, I will hopefully have chance to visit Milwaukee and experience all this.
Thanks for another enjoyable video. I was happy to see you both in Milwaukee WI., I grew up in Wisconsin and remember celebrating at Mader's and enjoying the waterfront. If you decide to come in the winter be sure to check out northern Wisconsin and the South shore of Lake Superior, it's magical and wild.
Wild as in lots of heroin?
Jacob Major nah, wild as in the waves and wind
Mary Minnesota Ahh yes, love Mader’s!
Who knew Milwaukee was so great? Thank you for the great video!
HOME! When the New York Times calls you one of America's most underrated cities - a hidden jewel - it says something. And you figured it out!!! You're welcome anytime!
Thanks Sorgi!
I lived in Milwaukee WI all my life I love the city so much too do
I grew up just outside this city, I liked it and then moved to California, I long for the seasons and any rainfall.
Milwaukee is so great to be at.
I've been living in Madison Wisconsin for thirty nine years and I never knew that there was so many things to do in Milwaukee. I will need to plan a week getaway for my wife and I. Thank you.^
Madison the liberal stronghold of Wisconsin
A lot easier to navigate than Madison, that's for sure; only one lake to worry about while trying to get your bearings! I'm from Milwaukee and driving in Madison always confuses me.
We lived in Milwaukee for five years while I attended MSOE> Wonderful city. Great place to live.
I HIGHLY recommend going to the EAA Airventure airshow sometime! It’s a camping metropolis. You wake up each morning to ultralights, and the afternoons are filled with jet afterburners. It may be crowded boondocking, but it’s an awesome bunch of people to be around. It’s where we first toured a 19’ Scamp, and the next year brought our own new one.
If you return to Milwaukee, I also recommend The Safe House. It’s a spy experience! Good food, too.
It’s cool to see a visitors perspective
Thank you its about time someone came in the summer time its so much more the city come alive
Thank you, we visited most of what you did just by following your video. 😊
*MILWAUKEE!!!*
Milwaukee is a beautiful city with the best cheese in the World and best lite beverages in the world, and Nice and friendly people, and , Milwaukee and also biking friendly. Me and my friends enjoy biking.
U always say so many nice things when U visit my state. Kait's Packers💚💛 are here in Green Bay, plus U wouldn't be far from Door County & I remember you loved it there. Winters last way too long but U could always travel.😊👍
My city!! Go Bucks!!!!!!
I'm gonna come here for my racing career to stay forever as it's my dream and I'm from india
Welcome To Milwaukee!!!
Wow awesome tour and we get to see Leo again awesome rip🐶💜
I'm not sure you'd want to live there in the winter - it gets mighty cold and snowy. The weather here (Central Indiana) is yucky enough in the winter and it is probably one of the reasons we are doing our research now on which Class-B we will end up with. We've looked at the Hymer but the aisle is just too narrow for us as well as the size of the bathroom. Always look forward to your videos and learning as much as we can from everyone we follow. Cheers.
Love the food tour. Bring on more
I ran into you guys at the Brady Street Festival, and introduced myself!!! You're right, Milwaukee is a great town, eight months out of the year. With all that cheese you won't poop for a week!
Thanks for stopping us - it was great meeting you!
I was thinking the same.. lmao
This looks like a lot of fun
Welcome to the neighborhood!
Beautiful! I love it
Thanks for the awesome video! We'll be heading that way in 2 to 3 weeks and I'm super excited for that cheese!
You’re welcome. Have fun in MKE!
How fun & Yum!
You need to visit the La Crosse Wi area...beautiful bluffs and Mississippi
I live in Fond du Lac. 45 min North of MKE. It was neat to see you at some of my favorite places. One may want to visit here in February before deciding to live here. LOL
Food is no joke in Milwaukee
I'm glad you enjoyed
If you are going to come to Milwaukee in the Winter (even though I advise against it) come around the New Years and go polar bearing in New Year’s Day at Bradford Beach .
If you do come back in the summer time, come at different times in the summer so that you can partake in the different ethnic festivals either at The summer fest grounds, or Bastille Days at Cathedral Square, Greek Fest at the State fair grounds , or Highland Days in Tosa,
Also don’t forget some of the brewery tours that are not directly downtown like Miller Brewing or Sprecher
I loved this video. I’ve lived here in Milwaukee my whole life and I am trying to think of why to visit in winter... *maybe* driving through some of the areas with amazing Christmas lights (downtown Wisconsin Ave is pretty, but most of the larger displays are outside of the city proper)... otherwise, friend, come back in spring. :)
(Fall is a lovely season here for colors of leaves and pumpkin farms).
Great video! We loved Milwaukee when we were there last summer, we were not expecting it to be so clean and have a waterfront. You guys saw much more of Milwaukee than we did, looks like Sabrina and I will have to do a return trip now. Oh and that Pretzel looked great, very fresh for sure ;)
Mmmm pretzels.
I would love to see a Winter experience!
Wish we had shopping malls
But Bayshore and Mayfair is fine, hopefully we'll have one soon ☺
My daughter is going to Marquette University next year, so I will probably visit Milwaukee. Looking forward to it.
Great Video!
In the colder months, our city has more for us that grew up here.
This is the first time I've ever commented on any youtube channel (have watched MANY). You two have inspired me! Kate, I LOVE your hair, you could so a quick talk on your decision to that, maybe?? Thank you for sharing your joy and adventure with us 😄
I saw vw bus !! Hope California can come back to US.
Went to school in Utah. I have had enough cold winters for the rest of my life.
I think you would enjoy Pittsburgh too. I just visited there. Lots of great small neighborhoods, food and beer.
Milwaukee has the best cheese and beer in the United states of America
Milwaukee sure looks nice! I am just curious how do you plan to winterize the water tanks in the van when you visit Milwaukee in the winter? Could you please share your thoughts?
Oh man..u were at German fest? Me too..would have loved to meet u.
Looks like I would enjoy living there.
The #1 place to visit in Milwaukee should be 34th Street and Courtland Avenue.
You should try Canfora Bakery on Oklahoma ave.
omg they went to rocket baby bakery!! i live down the street from there!!
Door county is a very pretty area too.
k cant get over 1.50 hr !? parking, vancouver B.C cost me between $8-13 hr to park. what a rip off !! love the bread shop btw...
I would definitely kayak in Chicago but the river in Milwaukee smells so bad that I wouldn't be able to.
Joe, what tree did that PEPPERONI grow on? LOL Looked great!!!
This is my hometown
I went there past November, it was 5 degrees (not Celsius, Fahrenheit)...
JOE , U & KATE MIGHT WANT TO PICK UP UR NEW OLIVER 4 SEASON TRAILER BEFORE U HEAD OUT TO SPEND THE WINTER UP THERE. LOL
Nope! Was tired of having my car broken into. Maybe mice to visit, but not live. Moved there from Miami and had my BMW broken into twice.
Rare then ig. I live in Milwaukee and never knew of anything like that happening outside the hood.
Yeah but the Winter ❄️ time. Brrr.
You should have gotten a nice wedge of edamer and havarti cheeses and some prosciutto too. Yum yum, I love me some fresh bread.
Hey Joe, just bought and read your book “Take Risks” nonstop. Great, great book and I’d consider this book a must read for anyone wanting to go full time in an RV. I wish I had found this before we went full time in our 40 footer. You written anything else?
I had to all my Patreon people. I keep missing the Wed. Postings. I miss them
Good video
Thumbs up for the beetles!
Where did you stay? We have been to Cliffside in Caledonia (Racine) twice because of your recommendation. Really like that place and it's only 1 hour North of our S & B!
Beautiful
This made me so hungry
I have been here for 20 years. I have been goddamned and cursed. Cannot wait to die
Our won't want to be in Milwaukee in the winter. Don't think you'd like dealing with 8 to 14 inches of snow and all the cold.
You started off the video at rocket baby! Love that place!
I have some serious advice for people traveling to Milwaukee.
It’s a great city, but you have to know where to go. Because there are a LOT of slums in the city, and you do not want to get lost in the wrong neck of the woods
The most dangerous zip code in the country is in Milwaukee, where 2/3 of the male population has been to jail.
These slums have been struck with poverty. Gun problems are noticeable in the slums. Rarely does the violence leave the slums, but it can.
I'm pretty sure this is true of every major city. There are nice parts and shaddy parts in every major city in the US. Know where you are going, plan it out ahead of time, be smart. I grew up in Milwaukee, traveled all over the city. When you enter an area like the ones you describe, you know it. When tourists come to Milwaukee (or again, any major US city), these areas typically are never seen. The cute cafe that everyone photographs on Instagram, or the pizza shop that everyone is told to visit while in town, these are not in a scetchy part of town. People give Milwaukee a bad name, and for the most part that is what has kept it the hidden gem that it is. I don't think it can stay hidden for much longer, but it was nice while it lasted.
It all depends. Transfers Pizza is on 1st and Mitchell and they were sitting outside. So it all depends. Jakes Deli is not on a favorable side of town, all kinds of people go there.
How do you actually measure dog-friendliness of a city?
What happened to you guys. I haven't seen many posts lately. Miss your old style videos.
Is Milwaukee a dangerous place to live?
Why didn't you go to the North side and see all the sights.
trinity and beyond
I live here
Not sure what the problem is but the sound on your video is so low I can't hear a word you are saying. The music is fine as are the advertisements. Just can't hear your voices.
Hi Sharon, were you using headphones to listen or speakers plugged into a headphones/speaker outlet on the computer? If so, check that connection as I've had a similar sounding experience and I reconnected my headphones and it appeared just not to be making a good connection. Strangely enough, it plays the music but made the voices very low and I couldn't hear them either. Just wanted to share that in case this was the same issue for you.
Hey Sharon, might be on your end as Jay suggests. All’s well with the sound/voices on this end. Blessings🧚🏻♀️
sharon childress I had audio issues as well, Cate talking to the camera was really loud, but Joe’s responses were really quiet. Also, the music was loud in relation to his narration.
