It is home to several educational institutions, including Southern New Hampshire University and St. Anselm College.

Renting a car, which may be done at the airport, and walking are the easiest ways to get around Manchester. Bus service and taxis are also available, although bus service is relatively limited and taxis can be expensive. 

Once you are here, there are tons of activities that you can enjoy: 

For a historic experience, you can visit the Millyard Museum, which puts together permanent and special exhibitions that show the story of this place through time. Everything from health to knitting will help them to show you a bit of who they were and who they are now. 

If you are looking for a more fun and touchable experience at a museum, you can visit the SEE Science Center, a place that is great if you are traveling with kids. They say they are two floors of hands-on science fun, and we trust them! This place is an interactive learning center established to promote the understanding, enjoyment, and achievements of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. You can have fun while you learn about topics like forces, light, sound electricity, simple machines and more. They also have a very cool LEGO exhibition! 

For a more mellow and natural plan you can schedule a visit to the Lake Massabesic Watershed. For the nature lovers, this land is special because it collects and stores water from rainfall or melting snow that provides drinking water for 159,000 people in the regional Manchester area. Deer, raccoon, fox, loons, hawks, and many other species of wildlife are part of this watershed. This is the ultimate place for biking, fishing, hiking and enjoying nature. If you are in this greener mood then you can also visit the Livingstone Park, a place to play sports that is surrounded by nature’s best. 

Other fun activities include:
- Currier Art Museum. The collection includes works by Picasso, Monet, and O'Keefe and features European and American paintings, decorative arts, photographs, sculptures, and performances. 
- Palace Theatre is a restored theater that features plays, concerts, and other live performances.
- Amoskeag Fishways Learning and Visitors Center, interactive exhibit hall that allows visitors to explore the Merrimack River. View live turtles, frogs, and salmon; play a salmon migration game, help generate electricity.
