  • 5 star kind of town
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/18/09
    Being from KC, this was my family's first trip. The Omaha people were great and didn't mind at all giving up a minute of there time to take a family pic for us. We spent 3 nights and four days in Omaha. We visited the Old Market, Heartland Park, Freedom Park, the Henry Doorly Zoo, the Strategic Air & Space Museum, drove the wildlife ...

  • A quick stop on a road trip
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/27/08
    I'm from Omaha, currently living in Southern California, and can understand both sides of the spectrum. Omaha isn't and never will be a tourist destination, but it's a good city for a one-two day stop. The size doesn't intimidate like NYC, L.A. or Chicago and the city is small enough to explore easily without getting lost or ...

  • Irony - Naysayers seem to be from Omaha
    By Linds, 08/27/08
    I find it ironic that several of the negative comments are from former Omaha residents. I grew up in rural Nebraska about an hour from Omaha, and now I live in Chicago...so I suppose I see Omaha in a somewhat biased way. We always went there on a fun day out, whether it was going to a game at Rosenblatt, Henry Doorly Zoo, the Old Market or ...

  • Not worth it
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/24/08
    Stay away from Omaha. It likes to think it's bigger and better than it really is. There is little to do here and it just isn't the most exciting place you can go to. If you are going on vacation somewhere, it's not a bad place to stop for 1-2 days, but after that you'll start getting bored. If you stop, see the zoo, eat at the Old Market, and get on your way out. Moved out of here as soon as I could and don't miss it at all.

  • A whole lot of average
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/15/08
    Omaha isn't the greatest city I've ever been to, but it was fine for a week when I went to a friends wedding. There are a decent amount of things to do. The two biggest things are the zoo and the Old Market. The zoo is big and pretty nice. Being from San Diego, I was quite impressed. The Old Market reminded me of the Gaslamp District back ...

  • No Thanks
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/21/07
    No good body of water (Missouri River doesn't count), no mountains, no nature, no skyline (two semi-big buildings), no diversity, no originality, bad weather, small entertainment area, little culture, people in denial, highlights of the week are eating at a chain restaurant and drinking at a strip mall bar...

    Welcome to Omaha. Now you see why I got out as fast as I could.

  • Not worth a special trip
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/07/07
    I came out to Omaha for a business trip. I wasn't overly impressed. The downtown Old Market area wasn't bad, but it was very small. The weather was mind-numbingly cold. The city didn't feel very vibrant or energetic. I guess it would be a good place to live if you want to have a slow, easy life.

  • So boring and consistent
    By Ben, 05/07/07
    I am from Omaha, lived in Texas for four years and moved back to Omaha. I am leaving Omaha for good in about two months. If you like consistency, you will like Omaha. It is the most consistent place I have ever been to. Every neighborhood looks alike. Strip mall after strip mall after strip mall. No nature. No architecture. Chain restaurants and ...
