This is one big and very diverse state. You can stroll on sandy beaches, explore majestic canyons, play cowboy and enjoy world-famous music and food. These three cities will give you a taste of Texas – there’s down to earth yet sophisticated Austin, a small university town that over the past few decades has grown into a bustling city. Dallas has the country’s largest urban arts district, a huge sports scene and heaps of attractions. Then Houston, America’s fourth-largest city, is very cosmopolitan, filled with world-class dining, arts, shopping and nightlife.
Whether you’re spending a day, a weekend or a week in Houston, it has something to keep everyone entertained. And a trip to Houston wouldn’t be complete without seeing the number one attraction – Space Centre Houston. Discover the future and remarkable past of America’s spaceflight programme set among the largest collection of space artefacts in the southwestern United States.
Called the ‘Best Sport City in America’, it’s the only city in the Southwest US where you can find all major American sports leagues. Don’t miss the world-renowned Dallas Cowboys if they’re playing when you’re in town. Make sure you visit Pioneer Plaza and take your picture with the massive bronze monument of cattle drives and cowboys.
Austin is not only the state capital but also the Live Music Capital of the World®. Live music can be enjoyed in more than 250 venues throughout Austin. Austin is also a foodie paradise. Home to Texas’ best BBQ joints, craft beer and farm-to-table-cuisine.
Famous for its Spanish history, San Antonio is centrally located in the heart of Texas and blends the natural beauty of the region with vibrant charm. Discover the Alamo, wander the River Walk and enjoy some Tex-Mex culinary delights.
45 minutes from downtown Houston this is a fascinating day out. Known around the world as the home of NASA Mission Control, International Space Station Mission Control and astronaut training, it’s amazing to see behind the scenes.
This is a must-do in Texas as it’s tax free for international shoppers. There’s no better place to shop than Houston which is arguably the style capital of the south. From the Galleria to bargain hunting at the Premium Outlets, you’ll find it all.
The Houston Museum District is one of the top cultural districts in the USA. With over 19 museums to explore from The Children’s Museum of Houston and the Contemporary Arts Museum to the Museum of Natural Science and the Health Museum.
This museum is dedicated to former American president, John F. Kennedy. Stroll through rooms filled with photographs and enrich your knowledge of the former president’s life with an audio tour. See displays that document the events of the assassination and discover how John F. Kennedy shaped the political system in America with his achievements.
Fort Worth was once home to cowboys, cattlemen and outlaws and today you can get a taste of the true American West. Don’t miss the Fort Worth Heard, the daily cattle drive through the brick streets of Fort Worth.
This hall of fame honours excellence in rodeo and the Western lifestyle in Texas.
In the 18th century, Spanish priests established five Catholic missions along the San Antonio River. Today, these missions represent the largest concentration of Spanish colonial missions in North America and are a UNESCO World Heritage site.
