Driver was exceptionally good/helpful and the NASA tour was so interesting! So many options! Mother had wheelchair and the staff was over and above helpful.

Greg, our tour guide, was absolutely amazing!! He picked us up at the exact time that was sent to us and it happened that no one else had booked the tour that day so we had the entire day to ourselves! He was so informative and gave us great advice as far as where to go and what to do while we were in town. The beginning of the tour was about 90 minutes of Greg driving us around Houston and showing us some of the city’s highlights and giving us a brief history of some of the city’s landmarks. We then left for the space center which was about a 25 minute drive. The space venter itself was absolutely awe inspiring. We had more than enough time to take the tram as well as explore the entire complex. Greg promptly picked us up at our prearranged time and we headed back to the city. This tour is a MUST for anyone in from out of town and wants to learn a little bit about Houston’s history and experience NASA. Thanks againnn

NASA was a joy to visit mid-week in February! Our driver pointed out interesting sites and told many stories. The time went quickly! They willingly let us change our drop off site. Fantastic!
Response from Host, Feb 2020
We think it is fantastic that you had such a great day on one of our tours because it is our goal to provide you with just that. A great day! Thank you for allowing us that opportunity and it was our pleasure doing it.
Thank you for visiting Houston!

Tour was amazing, host / guide was amazing. We were the only people booked for that day so had the vehicle to ourselves. Highly recommend
Response from Host, Nov 2019
Thank you for the kind words and we're glad you enjoyed the Nasa experience while touring with us. We were honered to serve you. Thank you for visiting the magnificent city of Houston and please come again!
Christy_R, Nov 2019
We were expecting a small bus to take us on tour, but we were the only people booked, so Greg turned up in his Lincoln luxury car to take us. He customised our trip as he knew the weather may impact on the Space Centre tour (he was right). Greg is an amazing, thoughtful guide and knows his stuff! Highly recommended. We were so impressed we booked our airport transfer with All Star. Lance was great also.
Response from Host, Nov 2019
Thank you for sharing this with us and we're happy to hear you were well accommodated by both Gregg and Lance who are both great Houston Ambassadors and chauffeurs . It was a pleasure serving you and please come again.

Great day, and Greg our guide was fantastic! He knew his stuff and was very accommodating with our group
Sophia_W, Apr 2019
Highly recommended. Greg’s infectious passion for Houston and the space centre was a delight to behold. You get to skip queues and listen with glee to an expert taking you around this awe inspiring place of work.

Excellent Guide. Very Informative trip Treated like VIP at Space Center so avoided all the long Spring Break Crowds.
Highly recommended
Craig T, Apr 2018
Excellent day tour, our guide Greg had great knowledge and was really interesting and funny.
Julie_P, Mar 2018
Excellent service. Knowledgeable about Houston. Showed us the sights that we could further explore, so would have been good to do it as a first up tour. His knowledge and tips on NASA was excellent. Because we were the only ones on this tour, we had a private limo tour. He was hospitable and had drinks and snacks and a souvenir momento for us. This was a tour with a difference and one of the best we have done.
JBryan_S, Dec 2017
Brilliant tour with a knowledgeable and very helpful guide who Was excellent
Lctina, Oct 2017
The tour was well organised and very informative. Our guide was great and went out of his way to return my sunglasses which I left on the transport. I would highly recommend this trip and the Space Center is great

Our tour guide, Gary, was great! He picked up us on time, and showed us some sights in Houston we were not aware existed. At NASA, he made sure our 9 year old grandson had a wonderful time! He knew many of the employees at NASA, and our tickets were priority. I would highly recommend this tour.
Gavin R, Jul 2017
As we are into the space program and its history, we made sure we visited Houston just to visit the Johnston Space Centre there. Our day was exceptional and we were extremely impressed with watching a working centre still to this day go about its business. The displays were impressive and we got to touch an actual space capsule that had been in space. Great tour if you like anything to do with space. Out guide was amazing and we enjoyed being taken around the suburbs to see the beautiful old homes and leafy streets. A great day and one to always remember.
Adrian G, Mar 2017
A truly great experience! the driver,Gregg, was very helpful and informative,and got us to the front of Queues and 10 discount at the gift shop.It was raining pretty heavily,so he contacted us twice to see if we wanted to cancel,as NASA stop their tram tours of the site in bad weatherfortunately,we didn't,!
Lefre61, Nov 2019
En une journée, il est difficile de vister une ville comme Houston et le centre de la NASA. Notre guide était excellent. Notre seul regret, pas assez de temps à la NASA du fait de la mauvaise organisation des tours par la NASA.
Response from Host, Nov 2019
Merci pour ces commentaires et ces gentils mots à propos de Allstar. Bien que le Centre spatial Nasa ait reconnu ce problème et apporté quelques modifications récentes, nous leur ferons parvenir ces informations afin d'aider à mettre en évidence les problèmes qui requièrent le plus d'attention. Merci encore pour cette information précieuse et merci de votre visite à Houston!
