Great experience, I would recommend these drivers to anyone, we were able to get right through at the space center, he was very informative and also got us tickets to places. Vanessa was the same, she kept her cool in nasty traffic and easy to talk to.

Tour operator picked us up on time at the appointed location and got us to the Houston Space Center safely and on time. We had 5 hours to explore, which gave us plenty of time to do what we wanted. Thanks for a great time!

Everything is excellent! Transportation is perfectly organized and the exhibition ist great. Its worth to follow the drivers suggestion of taking the tram tours as they allow to see much more of the area, including the impressive Saturn V rocket. A great experience!
