Great way to spend a couple of hours, we purchased the deal on groupon and found this to be the…read morebest price. We arrived first thing right when they opened and had no issues finding a parking spot, i will mention when we left a couple of hours later the parking lot was full with people driving around waiting for people to leave. My kids really enjoyed the aquarium, as did my husband I it was our favorite area to explore. The rainforest pyramid was nice we couldnt find the sloth but saw the monkeys, they was down on the walk way and staff was directing people away from them It was more a one and done kind of place just because it is a little on the pricey side, but we have no regrets and got some amazing photos.

I had a wonderful time here! Each attraction was fun and unique in its own way…read more I enjoyed dipping' dots before going to the rainforest and Aquarium. The staff members were friendly, it was super clean and the attractions were fun and exciting. I can't wait to come back

Upon entering, we were greeted by a friendly staff member who explained the main exhibition and the rest of the center to us. There are great pieces of work from jewelry to pottery and more for sale by the resident artists. It was fun looking into the working studios and one of the artist invited us in and spoke to us about her work, inspirations, and previous studios. This perhaps was my favorite part of the visit. The space is not very big so it's perfect for a 1-2 hour visit. There's a pretty garden outside with picnic tables where you can enjoy a packed lunch.

The Museum of Fine Arts is one of 19 museums located in the museum district in Houston. It…read moreencompasses 3 buildings each with several floors. They are connected via underground tunnels. Pricing for the museum is $24. There are several garages in the area to park at and parking is charged a hourly rate. Unfortunately I was short on time but was able to visit the Frida collection, Aztec civilization, and Islamic Art collections. All of the art work was unique. The Frida collection was extremely popular and that's where most of the museums visitors spent their time. Overall I really enjoyed my experience here and wish I had more time to explore. They do have several dining options at the museum including a Michelin star French restaurant, Le Jardinier. The menu looks great and looks like they had a lunch 2 course option there for $45.

There were plenty of amazing exhibits to see in the free galleries, and parking was only $10.

Whether you're into art, history, or just looking for something fun to do, this is definitely a great way to spend a Thursday. Highly recommend checking it out!

There were a handful of theatres for guests to sit in and experience various historical moments pertaining to space exploration. We only watched "Moon Walkers" narrated by Tom Hanks. Independence Plaza: A quick walk from the Space Center Museum. It is about 3-4 stories high with exhibits inside of it (air conditioned). A lot of the tram tours are a first come first served basis. We didn't go to all the tram stops (complimentary with your ticket), but we did stop at George W.S. Abbey Rocket Park Tour. It was cool to see! Parking: The parking is charged separately on top of the tickets.

Other things you should know about the Space Center: -It's a huge campus, and the museum itself is only a small portion. -My wife went 15 years ago, and it's gotten a LOT better apparently. So if you haven't been in a decade or more, give it another shot. -They don't have much pertaining to the recent Artemis mission. We went as the astronauts were heading around the moon, but we didn't see any current info. -It's great for kids, especially over the age of six or so. -You should book some tours in advance. By the time we got up there, most things were sold out except Rocket Park. -Rocket Park is still cool. The sheer size of the Saturn is incredible. Take the little trolley and say hi to the longhorns. -The Food Lab (the food court) is hit or miss. The salad bar was surprisingly great, and the pizza is abysmal. DO NOT GET THE PIZZA. -You should go in with an open mind, ready to learn. That goes for everything, not just the Space Center. -You know where astronauts hang out? At the space bar. (This joke works better with a drawing of an astronaut passed out on a keyboard.)
