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.

Very disappointed

We were there for barely 30 minutes and they had issues with the bathrooms so they closed! We waisted half a day traveling from Galveston Island, rented a hotel room, meal and all for nothing!

Operator response

Bathrooms at The Space Center facility had that issue, and we have no control over that. We are only the transportation company. On our part, you enjoyed our city tour service, and we were happy to get your ticket refunded by the NASA Space Center. Was great serving you

Our NASA visit

Nice. Got 1.5 hour of city visit, taking us round various roads, murals and a few places, worth seeing. At NASA, we had sufficient time and the guidance given by our guide was worth to follow at NASA. Overall nice experience, and and highly recommended

Expected advance...

Expected advance reservations on tram trips - instead only one trip was still available at space center. Also need to realize that tram trips are outside so be prepared for weather.

Operator response

Hi, we appreciate your message to us, but Tram tours are controlled internally by NASA and are available on a first come first serve basis. Detailed information about the tour was provided at check-in.

Short and not so sweet

NASA was too crowded and the 4 hrs is just not enough. The Houston bus tour in the morning was good. The driver/ host was informative and enthusiastic.

Costly and Untimely Communication

Didn’t get to go ! We understood if not enough numbers tour gets cancelled but thought it may have been better to let us know the night before when they knew we were the only two going, especially when we arrived for our tour 30 mins before and to be told they needed a minimum of 6 people which we understand but we had replied to their seperate reminder email the night before inferring to be ready to arrive on time etc ?! Otherwise we would not have wasted money on a substantial taxi fare ! Not overly impressed too to be told that around Christmas not many tours go ahead. Recommend better and more timely communication as if we had known the night before that they was only us two booked, we were old have understood organiser cancelling !

Operator response

Thank you for your message. We informed you at the time of booking and sent reservation updates a day before. Sorry for the inconvenience, we offered more tours available.

Very aggravated

Trip was canceled and they haven’t refunded our credit card yet we ended up taking the tour on our own plus they didn’t put anything so we got there and found out then. Very aggravated our credit card hadn’t been reimbursed yet
