Traveler reviews
Right choice to join the trip
Pickup and drop off on time, arrangement is good, tip to ensure we finish the space center well. The city tour covers mid town, which is nice, our driver and tour guide are professional.
Quick City Tour and Travel to NASA Space Center.
Although very quick as was advertised, the city tour was very informative. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating.
It was a meaningful time.
The tour of Houston was interesting, as was the NASA tour, and the guide's explanation was very good. He explained the history of Houston from its inception to the present.
NASA worth a visit but i wouldnt book through viator again
The Nasa trip was worthwhile but viator provided the wrong pick up Address in conflict with the message from the provider very confusing The city tour was not really a high point driving through masses of city buildings listening to a mon stop monologue of "huston exceptionalism" which could do with a little fact checking I also do not like a driver playing with her phoneas we drive
Astroville City Tour with NASA Space Center
This small group tour is excellent especially if you have limited time in Houston. Louis our tour guide/driver was seriously excellent, very knowledgeable, very accomodating and made our tour even better. He was happy to take photos of us, had information sent to us from his office for recommendations for sights and restaurants. I found the company had excellent communication confirming pick up time, place and person not once but twice during the day. The vehicle used was a lovely Mercedes van. It gave us enough time touring the city and also at the Space Center.
