Such a well planned tour, really worth doing when visiting Houston - I booked this a month beforehand and so glad I did. We paid a little more for pick up from Galeria area, our guide collected us exactly on time in a comfortable 8 seater mini bus. The first hour or so is a very informative tour , starting on the outskirts where there are large properties to admire then moving to the downtown area . Our guide pointed out all the main sights and attractions and explained how to use transport systems and underground subways to reach different areas. He also had recommendations for places to eat. After this part there was a 30 minute drive to the NASA centre. There we exited the mini bus and the guide gave us our entrance ticket and told us how best to plan the visit which lasts approx 4 hours. There was so much to see , Space centre , astronaut training, space shuttle, history of race to the moon, future missions to name a few. The mini bus collected us afterwards and returned us to our hotel. We made sure to eat a good breakfast as it's not really worth eating in the cafe, there are burgers etc but expensive and better to use the time looking at exhibits. In the mini bus we were supplied with small snacks and water. There was a bag search as we entered the NASA centre, bottled water was allowed but our guide advised leaving sharp objects including selfie sticks with him , in case of confiscation. There were plenty of restrooms in the Centre , the mini bus did not stop for breaks in the first 2 hours so you need to be comfortable with that if planning to book. One more point, part of the tour at the NASA centre was on an open sided tram so take waterproof clothing if rain is forecast.

Must do! - We had a wonderful tour with Greg! He was prompt, polite, and amazingly knowledgeable! We not only thoroughly enjoyed the NASA experience, but took Greg's advice on visiting other downtown Houston attractions and restaurants. Well worth the price!

Great tour guide, fantastic NASA experience - Greg, our tour guide, was absolutely amazing!! He picked us up at the exact time that was sent to us and it happened that no one else had booked the tour that day so we had the entire day to ourselves! He was so informative and gave us great advice as far as where to go and what to do while we were in town. The beginning of the tour was about 90 minutes of Greg driving us around Houston and showing us some of the city’s highlights and giving us a brief history of some of the city’s landmarks. We then left for the space center which was about a 25 minute drive. The space venter itself was absolutely awe inspiring. We had more than enough time to take the tram as well as explore the entire complex. Greg promptly picked us up at our prearranged time and we headed back to the city. This tour is a MUST for anyone in from out of town and wants to learn a little bit about Houston’s history and experience NASA. Thanks againnn

Gregg the Great! - Gregg picked us up from our accommodation in a fantastic and comfortable vehicle. The first part of the tour was Houston city and we got great tips and insight into the city. Gregg was so informative and we were particularly interested in the city's recycling scheme, which he was able to tell us all about. We got to NASA and the time we had there was literally perfect. We got everything done just before Gregg arrived to pick us up. Everything went perfect and i would recommend to everyone!! Go Gregg!!

Johnson Space Center - Decided to do this tour on an off day while I was in Houston for a conference. Gregg was our driver and was very knowledgeable and gave us great information about Houston. After going through the city and neighborhoods, we headed to the Johnson Space Center. His recommendations on how to go through the center were great and gave us enough time to see it all with time to spare. Wish we had done this earlier in the week, so I could have taken advantage of more of Greggs suggestions.
