10 Things to do Adventurous in Oklahoma City That You Shouldn't Miss
With over 50 legendary attractions including the National Cowboy and Western Museum and the Myriad Botanical Gardens, plus world-class shopping, restaurants and hotels OKC, as it is affectionately known, is the ideal spot for a weekend of fun and reflection. Discover the sights and sounds of the Old West in Stockyards City, watch horse races at Remington Park, then have dinner and see a show in historic Bricktown. Designed to duplicate an 1800s frontier town, families will love the Frontier City Theme Park where visitors see an reenactment of the gun fight at the OK corral and ride thrilling roller coasters. On a more somber note, the site of the 1995 terrorist attack, known today as the Oklahoma City National Memorial, and the Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism, are not to be missed.

I visited the museum on a whim, because the name interested me when I searched for attractions to visit in Oklahoma City. It was well worth the time! The museum has an incredible range of skeletons on display--far more than I would have thought could be displayed so well in the building. The collection has been thoughtfully curated to interest and teach visitors. I especially enjoyed that except for the skeletons in the glass cases, visitors are encouraged to touch and handle the bones. I noticed several activity stations for younger children, and look forward to returning with my nephews.

Seasoned escapers - they have a room for you! My husband and I have done lots of escape rooms all over the place so we typically look for the most challenging and immersive experiences. We did the Tides of Treason room first and we absolutely loved it. Definitely challenging but fantastic gadgets and unique tricks and puzzles. Super fun room and not just a bunch of locks either. We were stumped a couple times but made it out with 8 minutes to spare. The theming in that room is so good and there are great surprises. We loved it so much we came out and asked what other room was available on the spot. We did the Conquered Embassy - their other more difficult room. It was still really fun and well themed but Tides won us over for sure!

I went here with 2 friends who were also trying it for the first time. Everyone from the person at the front desk to our own instructor were super helpful, positive, and excited people! It's a unique experience and I had a blast. Would do it all the time if I had one in my area. I didn't find it scary or anxiety inducing and we saw several children who did it as well. You gotta try it!

It can get REALLY hot and humid in Oklahoma in the summer; especially when you have ran a half marathon, and this is a GREAT place to cool down and fill the remainder of the day with friends or family.
