Traveler reviews
Value for money
The driver Mr Anthony was very good. It’s stress free and helps cover the space center properly . The cost is less what you would pay if you go directly to the counter.
Meeting Spot Confusion
pick up place (800 Capital St) talks about meeting at a Mural. There is no mural ! It is a Art-deco Satute. Confusing but we figured it out
Johnson Space Center.
A must see if you come to Houston a lot to see but was not exhausting trip. Did Kennedy Space Center years ago and was glad I got to visit here as well.
A great day out at the Space Center
A great day out at the Johnson Space Center. We booked from the UK and were looking to it but were slightly disappointed that Mission Control element was omitted but we were informed the day before through every means available with an option to cancel or self guided tour or with an expert guide We were picked up from downtown Houston and left on time On the drive there we watched some of Apollo 13 which was high appropriate We chose the expert guide who was Meredith who made sure we got a good flavour of the work of the space centre and made sure we were front of the queue on the campus tour and tickets for the training facility tour. As a space hipster since Mercury and Apollo this was a real treat to see Mission Control and the Dorothy Vaughan buildings. The exhibits in the main concourse are very good and interesting to see the lectern and actual speech of JFK saying we are going to the moon in this decade. Also a Gene Kranz original waistcoat A really interesting talk by the astronaut and the tour of the training facility is really interesting. They are really gearing up to Artemis
Excellent day at NASA
As a solo traveler, I really enjoyed visiting NASA Houston. I was disappointed that the Mission Control tour was canceled due to circumstances beyond the operator's control, but the tour operator's communication before, during, and after the tour was excellent. They kept everyone informed and provided alternative options. The convenience of being picked up and dropped off in downtown Houston made the day so much easier. NASA itself was absolutely worth the trip, with so much to see that you could easily spend a full day there.
