A great experience.

We could not go on 2 trams as we did not know to schedule in advance. That information needs to be clearer.

Houston City Tour and NASA trip (don't let the weather stop you!)

We had a fabulous guided tour of Houston (despite the pouring rain) and it really is a great way to see the city. Our guide gave us some great tips (the tunnels - what a fab idea!) and it was lovely to hear someone so passionate about where they live. The visit to NASA was great although the weather meant we could only stay inside the main indoor area and the shuttles were closed. We made the most of it however and enjoyed the shows and talks that were on.

Day at Nasa

The space center is amazing . A few things people need to know, you need all day . We had gone with tour which allowed us 4 hours which isn’t enough time . There 4 trolley tours and you require tickets for 3 of them . So get them first otherwise like us you miss out

Good experience

Very good experience although I was expecting a bit more out of the tours. Maybe more interactive. Nonetheless, it was interesting and educational.
