    This was a great way to spend 4 hours. We got our general admission tickets and mission control tickets on line and arrived basically when the museum opened on a Monday. It was fairly busy and our mission control tour tram was full. I suggest you buy your tickets online since the line for tickets when we arrived was long. You pay for parking when you arrive using your phone and a QR code. The museum itself is easy to tour with the main steps being the shuttle. If you take the mission control tour there are 87 steps to get up to the control room. There is an elevator, but not sure how big it is and they move through the presentation , so you may risk missing it if you arent first on that elevator. There is also an elevator for the levels of the shuttle.

    Keep an eye out for cards advertising the space center at your camp ground or hotel for $5 off.

    There is a large cafe area in the museum, and ample bathrooms scattered about.

    The rocket park tram tour is free but you do have to sign up for it. You cant get over there by yourself on foot.

    This museum is very beautifully maintained. The only problem we had was there were so many children on field trips being improperly chaperoned. We should have been warned in reviews as to stay away from Wednesday to Fridays! If you want to soak in this museum go on Mondays or Tuesdays or fight the field trips the other days!

    This business was incredible! The staff was super nice and they had everything you would want and need at check-in. It was our first time ever riding ATVs and they were patient with us. By the end, we felt like we could ride anywhere. The trails were awesome and so good!

    It rained the first 10 mins of our tour, then the sun came out brightly. The rest of the tour was great. The guide was very informative and I learned alot about Houston. Everyone was nice.

    I am a transplant living here in Houston for the past 15 years. This walking tour is pure evidence of the positive energy in this large diverse metropolis. Do you enjoy, history, architecture, culture, fun, laughing, meeting people for all over the world ? We met a young woman from Manchester invited her to lunch with us and now have a friend in Manchester….Support our local community, our thriving entrepreneurs and the rest is up to you!

    We spent a night outside of Houston before a graduation ceremony in College Station and really enjoyed our recent trip to the Museum! Parking in the garage was easy and it linked to the museum complex through indoor passages. The museum was a nice size, and we happened to be there on Thursday, when it was open late and was free —which was much appreciated after the fairly high entrance fee at the Johnson Space Center.

    It was nice to see many young people there enjoying the museums, too. The employees were all very friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend a visit here! We also visited the contemporary art building.

    I like to visit museums whenever I travel and this was really nice.

    This would be an excellent experience in Spring or fall not in the mid of summer. We chose to visit Natural Science Musuem, Fine Art Museum, Aquarium, Space Center and Kamak Board walk. The museums and aquarium were just OK but not the other out door activity-requiring activities. I highly recommend the fina art museum and aquarium

    Our group had an absolutely incredible experience with host, Erin Pollet’s, haunted ghost walking tour! Erin is a phenomenal guide—knowledgeable, kind, and full of captivating stories that brought the spooky history of the area to life. She struck the perfect balance between fascinating facts and eerie tales, keeping us entertained the entire time.

    One of the best parts? We could bring our dog along! Erin was so gracious and accommodating, making the experience enjoyable for everyone in our group (including our furry friend).

    My friends and I had an amazing time—it was the perfect mix of thrills, history, and fun. If you’re looking for a ghost tour that’s both dog-friendly and unforgettable, Erin Pollet is the guide for you. Highly recommend!
