We offer transportation for all types of events. Airport pickups, graduations, weddings, nights outs, and more. Our fleet of luxury vehicles are in immaculate condition, waiting for you. Rates comparable to cabs!
My 21 year old daughter was flying in late at night to Hobby and was a little nervous about taking an Uber by herself. We looked on TripAdvisor and saw the 5 star reviews for Omega, so we decided to book her transportation through them. Mohammed met her inside of the airport, took her bags and made sure she felt at ease. The car was very nice, clean and comfortable. She will definitely book her future transportation needs through Omega.

Outdoor Broadway shows put on in Hermann Park are very high quality with a big orchestra and lots of singers and dancers.
This is our second time to see a show here and we loved it. Everyone of the staff is so helpful and nice. The theater is beautifully maintained. The orchestra and performers are so talented. Really a great time. We will be back.

Park containing seven historic homes, an oasis of antiquity in the heart of the bustling modern city.
It's really staggering to see the difference between the original houses of Houston and the new gigantic skyscrapers. This park does a good job of presenting some of the original housing through the years.

This majestic theater houses the Houston Ballet and the Houston Grand Opera.
We attended the Sunday afternoon ballet performance of the “Merry Widow” and had a great time. The sets and costumes were amazing as was the choreography and music. I’m not a ballet or dance type of person, but the dancers seemed very talented. The newly-renovated Wortham Center is a first-class performance hall. It is very accessible with nearby parking, reasonably priced admission, and is managed by an excellent staff. I disagree with another post that said the seats were uncomfortable with not enough legroom. I have attended performances (ballets, plays, operas) in various venues in Houston, New York, Paris, London, and Madrid, and I find the seating in the Wortham Center is more spacious than most. We have always sat on the lower level but would love to try the seats in the upper-level boxes. Give it a try and I think you will be surprised and glad you did. Earlier in the season, we saw “Robbins,” which was also very enjoyable and informative.

Gladden. Home to a Resident Company of actors, the Alley creates a wide-ranging repertoire and innovative productions of classics, neglected modern plays, and premieres. Alley All New, the initiative to commission and develop new work year round, features the Alley All New Festival each season presenting workshops and readings of new plays and musicals in process. A recipient of the Special Tony Award for Outstanding Regional Theatre, the Alley has brought productions to Broadway, 40 American cities including New York’s Lincoln Center and internationally to Berlin, Paris, and St. Petersburg throughout its 70 year history.
I am always very pleased with every show at the Alley. There’s a parking garage so you don’t have to walk far, despite it being downtown. The actors are so skilled, truly and amazing experience to be a part of!
