STARGAZING · MUSEUMS
Every trip has one free evening too few. These planetariums & science museums earn the slot, priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and get on with the packing.
Spend a full day at Miami’s Frost Science Museum, with access to its three-level aquarium, hands-on science exhibits, live programming, and one planetarium show. See hammerhead sharks and jellyfish, touch a stingray, meet a 30-foot dinosaur, and choose between space and Earth science films.
“Indeed it was very good and could even spend plenty of time with kids.”
Choose one 20-minute dome show at Houston’s Burke Baker Planetarium, with topics ranging from black holes and Atlantis to the night sky. High-resolution projection carries you across planets, galaxies, and asteroid fields. Check the date-specific schedule before booking, since show titles and times change.
“Very good. I just wish the sits could be a little more giving and let you really lay back to enjoy a fuller vision of the dome and not having to move your head from side to side at some parts”
Pick a desert, a summit or a telescope.
