We had a nice tour, pleasant and relaxed drivers. There is paid public parking near the location as it is right in the center of Houston.

The visit began with a tour of the city by double-decker bus. Complementary visit to the 2 others (on foot and by minibus) made previously. Then head to the NASA Space Center. The only downside is not being able to take one of the small "trains" to visit more distant structures. Indeed, you must reserve your time of passage upon arrival at the Space Center (at 12:30, everything was sold out for the day.....) Otherwise, you can see past and future missions (Orion, Artemis ....) as well as certain modules that can be visited (Independence Shuttle, module of the International Space Station... Not going to the Space Center in Houston is a bit like not seeing the Eiffel Tower when you come to Paris for the first time.

Excellent experience and service. The city tour was very good, the guide gave a very good talk, it is clear that he has a lot of experience. Having them take you and look for you at NASA is super good.
