    Selena Tour in Corpus Christi

    Powered by Viator

    Houston, TX

    Corpus Christi (CC) is 208 miles/335 kilometers southeast from downtown Houston. Including 1 stop for a bathroom, refreshment and souvenir break, the drive each way is approximately 3.5 hours. Thus, we will spend about 7 hours driving to and from CC. We will take a slightly different return route so we can show you more sites. You will have many visual stimuli as we drive through a portion of the south Texas dessert with mesquite trees, and gravel replacing grass. We will drive through the wetlands surrounding CC and then into the subtropical Corpus. We will pass hundreds of windmills as we approach the coastal CC. Corpus Christi is almost always more windy, humid, and a few degrees warmer than Houston. Dress appropriately. Your van has a drop down movie screen. We have 5 Selena movies and documentaries to show as well as her Greatest Hits to play during your travels. Just tell us what you want.
