Route to Harbour House w/Dickens

[kftw]

We'll be staying at the Harbour House Sat/Dec 4th. Looking forward to our first Dickens on the Strand but worried about getting to the hotel. Which route should we take when coming into Galveston?

 

Thanks for your help.

We're coming in on 45. I'm almost as excited to be going to Dickens on the Strand as I am for the cruise. Well, almost. lol.

 

Thanks for helping.

From Houston, take Interstate 45 South to Galveston. Once across the Causeway, the Interstate becomes Broadway. Travel down Broadway to 21st Street. Turn Left on 21st Street.(there is a sign with a cruise ship on your right at the corner, where you turhn) Continue down 21st Street through the Galveston Historic Strand District until you reach Harborside Drive. Harbor House is located just ahead at Pier 21.

 

 

I know, we always enjoy Dickens soo much!!!

To go to Harbor House while avoiding Dickens traffic is exit Harborside Drive from 45. Harbor House will be on the left at 21st. Street.

This avoids the many signals on Broadway as well as traffic on 21st St.

Thank you too, oldmedic. I'll look for someone wearing a kilt. :D
