Decent opportunity to explore Houston
Great opportunity to see houston in a planned way . Some of the routing was uncoordinated, as you had to go back and forth on similar streets.

My Experience
I used Viator to purchase tickets for events at the Muesum of Natural Science in downtown Houston. Viator made it easy and extremely convenient to reserve and pickup tickets. We had a great time and it was hassle free and no waiting in long lines.

Love this museum
This museum is beautifully maintained! There are so many things to do and see inside! The dinasour exhibit was phenomenal;)
The only problem that should be noted up front is the school trips and days they usually come. There were so many unruly children running through the museum that we felt like we could not enjoy it.
