Traveler reviews
Definitely worth it
Visited Space Centre Houston today. Space Centre Houston is NASA's development and training center. This is in contrast to Kennedy Space Centre in Florida where the rockets and space shuttles are launched. You can look inside a space shuttle and also see how the astronauts live in space. A beautiful and educational center.
Grateful I went. Was not completely pleased with Meredith
Mike our driver was fabulous. So happy and considerate. Meredith our guide at the space center was nice and positive but…. She lost track of people several times, me three times, and talked very fast and frenetically and after some time I had to break off from the group because she wouldn’t stop talking and it was one o’clock and she hadn’t given us a chance to grab some lunch. I’m grateful for the tour and direction but not pleased with her as a guide
NASA by itself is mesmerizing, with a guide it becomes memorable.
NASA space center is a MUST SEE in Houston. The meeting place was easy to find. Our expert tour guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. Especially regard space-related issues, having an expert guide made all the different in understanding and appreciating the objects displayed.
Disappointing Experience
For everything related to the transportation I have no complaints. However, I puchased the guided experience, but when we arrived to the Space Center with the rest of the group that was having one of the guided tours, they told me that me and my dad weren't included in the list. They told us that we could wait for the next group and join them, but we needed to wait for almost an hour for that. We ended up just exploring by ourselves with no guide at all, which was by no means a bad experience because the Space Center is awesome, but we did pay full price for a service that we didn't recieve. I'm re-uploading this review because the last time I posted it the Business replied stating that I purchased a package that only included transportation and didn't include the "Expert" guide. So, I'm attaching evidence of my reservation, where ir clearly indicates which package I purchased and that it included a guided visit with an English-speaking "expert".
Great for worth
Guide and shuttle are friendly and helpful! 10/10
