Hi Paulina,

There is no public transportation that I'm aware of to the outlet mall. However, you may try Texas Tour Connection, which runs tours to the outlets. Also The Wave may be able to coordinate transportation for you as well. You will have to check with these two companies directly for pricing info and availability.

Hi D,

Unfortunately the Visitors Center does not have an online sales outlet at this point. However, if you call Cherry Eno or Anita Jones in the Visitors Center and let them know we talked about your situtation, they will help you re-order over the phone. Reach them at 713-437-5556. I hope this helps!

Hi Clifford,

Here is our recommended list of transportation providers in Houston.  I recommend you give AFC Transportation, or CTI Transportation a call.

I don't know the rules on drinking alcohol while in the limo, but they will be able to let you know.

Best,

Veronica

Hi Jen,

What does he or she like to do? Do you want something more low key or going out on the town? Is there an area of town you want to stay in?

It is always fun to go out an enjoy the Houston nightlife.  Midtown has some great bars, like Mongoose Vs. Cobra and Howl at the Moon.  Or you can venture over to Washington Avenue to check out Pearl Bar and Taps House of Beer.  If you're in the mood for fun cocktails, try Anvil Bar & Refuge over in Montrose. 

For restaurants, check out our articles on 15 Iconic Houston Meals and Award Winning Restaurants.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best,

Veronica

Sylvia,

You're in luck! The Discovery Green Flea by Night is a nighttime flea market in downtown's Discovery Green park. Also, the Urban Harvest Farmers Market takes place on Eastside Drive every Saturday morning--always a good time. 

Since you like sports, you can check out the Houston Dynamo vs Montreal Impact (MLS soccer) in their gorgeous brand new stadium just east of downtown (very close to Discovery Green!). 

Do you have any other interests? Art? Museums? Shopping? Theater?  Let me know, and I can give you additional suggestions.

Hi Andrew,

A few options that come to mind: Downtown there's the Houston Pavilions, which offers Pete's Dueling Piano Bar, House of Blues and Lucky Strike Lanes.

On Washington Ave., I would suggest a couple spots: Hughes Hangar and Kung Fu Saloon. In Montrose, the new beer bar Hay Merchant is pretty fun and Royal Oak nearby.

Hope that helps. Let me know if you need more suggestions!

Hi Jay,

I just saw Black Coffee the other night and yes it is quite age appropriate. No bad language or anything really risque. I think the whole family will enjoy it! Also, check out this coupon for up to 17% off tickets on select shows.

Anibal,

There are a few clubs that are 18 and up.   Fitzgerald's is a live music venue in The Heights that's all ages.  Other 18+ clubs are Rich's, The Roxy and Wild West.

Dave & Buster's is also an option. 

If you need anything else, let me know!

Greta,

Unfortunately, other than Metro buses, taxis and Super Shuttle, we don't have any public transportation to the airport.  The Metro buses are very inexpensive, but there are many stops.  You may want to take a look at the Metro trip planner just to see how long it would take to get to your son's house. A taxi from the airport to the Medical Center will be about $50.  You may want to call The Wave, a local jitney service, to get a quote.  It may be cheaper than a taxi.

If you have additional questions, let me know!
