galelynn Posted February 3 #1 Share Posted February 3 We have a later flight 6:12 PM from IAH, after we disembark from our cruise. We don't want to sit in the airport for hours. Anyone have any suggestions for tours, transportion or places to see to kill some time before having to be at the airport? This will be at the end of October 2024, and not sure what the weather is like there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john bowtie Posted February 4 #3 Share Posted February 4 If time allows, there is a Galveston Attraction Pass that can save you 40% when you get tickets through it for 4 or more attractions. I did Ocean Star Offshore Rig Museum, Galveston Railroad Museum (these two are within walking distance of the port), Galveston Naval Museum, Moody Mansion and Bryan Museum. https://www.galvestonislandpass.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG_traveller Posted February 6 #4 Share Posted February 6 I am in a similar situation with a flight leaving at 6:15 p.m. The cruiseline offers a couple of tours, one around Galveston and one to the space center. They are a bit pricey, but solve the problem of what to do with your luggage. I also considered renting a car, but Enterprise seems to be the only rental agency and they are closed on Sunday when we get back. I decided to just take my time getting off the ship and then take the shuttle back to the airport and tough it out waiting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimandami Posted February 6 #5 Share Posted February 6 I believe there is also a store across from the port that will store your luggage for $5/bag, which would also solve the luggage problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
