Day 1 - Discovering the Mysterious Universe with NASA

Start your Houston adventure with a tour of the famous NASA Space Center! Get ready to slip into your astronaut shoes and explore the mysteries of the universe. Watch actual spacecraft, like Saturn V, in all their glory, and experience a surreal simulation of the Orion capsule's journey in space.

Let's kick-start day two with a trip through time in Houston's Museum District. Start with the Museum of Fine Arts, boasting of art pieces from around the world. Be mesmerized by the tranquillity at the Rothko Chapel before you head to The Menil Collection for some surreal 20th-century art. Done with art for the day? Let's grab a quick Tex-Mex style lunch around Montrose. Our next stop is the Houston Zoo, a home away from home for 6,000+ animals. As evening descends, head to the Rice University campus, and spend quality time under the century-old oak trees or marvel at the stunning architecture of the Lovett Hall. Wind down your day with a dinner at one of the luxurious restaurants in Uptown.
