Below are reviews of the city of Wichita, KS from an actual visitor's perspective.
Friendly people and restaurants all in a clean beautiful setting.
Was there to watch grandson play football for Wichita Northwest.
Shopping opportunities, several option for entertainment.
Love the city. Expensive to fly in— if less pricey to fly I would come more often. The city is lovely.
I am a Kansas resident...out in the southwest rural area. After 2 weeks in Southern California I was SO happy to be home on the prairie. No more 8 lanes of freeway bumper to bumper!
Wichita is a wonderful city that includes great hotels, bars, restaurants, golfing and civic events.
I didn't have much time to explore I was busy with work. The people are friendly.
THIS IS WHERE I GREW UP AND THIS CITY IS GREAT.
Friendly people for the most part, not really much to do, but, it is a beautiful city and friendly.
We found a campground (right down the street} and stayed the next night in our fifth wheel.
So I had a day off during my stay and went to explore the city. I went to botanical gardens, from there walked to museum of art, then drove to the city center, stopped by at an art market where local artists were selling their crafts, went to a restaurant. It is a really nice city.
Visited two outstanding restaurants! George's and The Public at Brickyard. Food was delicious. Service was over the top. The Brickyard looks like a fun place to explore. Wish we had more time. Will definitely go there again and walk around - especially visit the World of Treasures museum!
Been to Wichita many times ..great city
If you have an event with any group bigger than 10 people I would book at the Marriot Oldtown that hotel treated my group great and we will be back at that hotel for another party. My party booked 40 rooms for the weekend
