Enjoy a special Christmas break “deep in the heart of Texas”, and celebrate your holidays with friendly families and cordial churches! Houston is special with home-stays and an active program—visit Space Center Houston at NASA, take a ride on Metro Rail and tour downtown and Houston’s underground. Explore Houstons museums or go shopping at one of Houston’s many malls. Tour the Toyota Center and enjoy a Rocket’s game or get a sense of Texas history at San Jacinto Battleground. Even if the weather is sometimes cold, you can expect your Houston welcome to be warm!
