There was way more then i expected. You will need at least 2 days, no joke, to take it all in. Meeting with a real astronaut was one of the best moments for my son and i. just an overall amazing experience for any family. Seeing the actual size of rockets and the Atlantis is mind blowing. We cant wait to go back.

There was no good guide for what we were going to experience in each building. Nowhere that felt like it showed a full overview of the history of the space program. The buildings certainly weren't in chronological order and we could easily figure it out. Then when we got to the Atlantis building we had no frame of reference for where we were going or why and we were just stuck behind a ton of loud elementary kids with zero idea of what we were waiting for or even if we should be waiting or if we were accidentally stuck when we could have walked past the kids.

the experience itself was crazy! I felt like a kid at the fair and I don't think I did or read or saw everything there was to see, read or do: I hope someday I can come back and finish seeing, reading or doing everything there is to see , read or do! Unfortunately, for all the things to read or listen to, there is not the slightest chance for those who are not familiar with the English language to be able to hear or read it translated into their own idiom. It fits, But I can't give the highest rating because I booked the all-day bus tour for $100, and, because there was a rocket launch, it was canceled. I was told at the customer service office that all booked customers would be refunded, but instead 9 days later I still have not received a refund. I was on December 5, 2024, best regards, Antonello MELONI, Sardinia, Italy

The awesome, intriguing experience of chatting with astronaut Fred Gregory, a man with enormous enthusiasm for his incredible life as a pilot, military service specialist and astronaut. America has an astonishing man who the country can be proud of and massively grateful to for his service. I felt all those feelings as a fellow human, as I am not an American. We were also super impressed by being inside and alongside the 'live' site shared with NASA, SpaceX and Blue Origin.

I visited in 1975 and it was vastly different. You were up close back then and you could appreciate the huge scale because you could touch it. Also, the experience was still in NASA hands not everything was monetized. It was windy in November when we went so I was glad air was free or we wouldn't have been able to afford it.

The exhibit that was the marquee for my visit to the Kennedy Space Center was the Shuttle Atlantis. I remember seeing the Shuttle Columbia first take off on TV in the early 1980s as a child, and I hope to see it in person someday. On December 5, 2024, I saw the Space Shuttle Atlantis up close, fulfilling a childhood dream. Thank you Kennedy Space Center for making this possible. All the other exhibits were exceptional as well.

Watching a SpaceX launch from the Saturn V center was amazing. I had always wanted to see an actual flight-item Lunar Excursion Module, so that was a treat. The video presention on the first lunar landing was very well done -- I remember watching it live on television, when it wasn't so clear to the viewing public what was going on with the on-board computer errors. It was fun to trace the history of launch vehicles standing in the rocket garden. The Space Shuttle is well-displayed; you can see it better than you could the one in Los Angeles (which is currently off display until they finish remodeling). The overall approach at the Kennedy Space Center is a bit too reminiscent of a theme park and a bit too heavy on the nationalist propaganda message for my taste; I prefer the more historical and technical style of the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington DC. But that was partially closed for renovation when I was there, and I recommend visiting both. If you want to experience an actual launch, Kennedy is the way to go.

I especially enjoyed the talk by Fred Gregory. The young man who gave mic'ed talk by the rockets was excellent. Atlantis exhibit top notch. I would have preferred an introductory video offered online/Youtube that provides an short overview of different displays and exhibits that we could watch prior to arrival. Overall all a great experience.

Kennedy Space Center is a extremely interesting, educational and FUN! Seeing the rockets and shuttles, etc., and learning about America's space exploration history and the many people who made it happen was so interesting. The interactive and immersive experiences were all first-rate and exciting. You know those rockets and shuttles are big, but you don't really understand how ENORMOUS they are till you see them for real. And one of the best things about our Kennedy Space Center experience was the wonderful, friendly, helpful people working there. THEY are what really made our visit extra special! Thank you!

Very easy to book. Enjoyed that transportation was available to book so we didn;t need to rent a car...very convenient. Would have liked to have a bit more room in the van as it felt like we were stuffed into the van like sardines in a can. Made the van heat up considerably when 13 people are togethee in a tight space. Understand the economics of filling every seat but having a bit of space would have been nicer. (bu the way... we are not large people).

The Atlantis show was really clever. However, I was disappointed with the communication on the explorers tour. We were unable to get to the launch pad due to a broken down vehicle. We were not advised that we were not going to be able to get to the launch pad until we were dropped off at the Saturn centre, finishing the tour 40 mins early. Also, if you shut exhibitions 30 mins before the centre closes, maybe advertise that somewhere.

When our tour guide announced that we would back at the viewing area in time for the launch, I could not believe my ears. A launch? I actually saw a rocket go up on my visit, That was very special for me. Also on the visit was my 32 year old son, who has always believed, like a lot of his generation, that the moon landings were fake. I think we changed his views that day.

Well, we paid for the hundred dollar bus tour, but it seemed like if you were just bought a general admission ticket, you will be able to enter and also take the bus tour. So instead of paying a $100, it would have been better to pay like $69, but you still had to pay for parking, which was another 15, but the experience was fantastic. We got to see a lunch

The awesome, intriguing experience of chatting with astronaut Fred Gregory, a man with enormous enthusiasm for his incredible life as a pilot, military service specialist and astronaut. America has an astonishing man who the country can be proud of and massively grateful to for his service. I felt all those feelings as a fellow human, as I am not an American. We were also super impressed by being inside and alongside the 'live' site shared with NASA, SpaceX and Blue Origin.

He had very interesting stories and an incredible experience. Unfortunately, there were a lot of kids asking questions. Kids should get this experience but there should be an option for people without kids to ask more serious/interesting questions than having to listen to the astronaut come up with an interesting way to answer kid questions.

The talk with the astronaut. We were there that day with my wife and our three teenage children. That talk gave a better meaning to all the things and projections we saw at the site. It was certainly great to see the shuttle, and all the infrastructure to go into space and the stories told in the projections. But we all felt that this talk gave the special touch to this tour.

The trip to Kennedy and chat with an astronaut was fantastic. I bought this trip as a birthday present for my husband and we went as a family during our holiday to Florida. The experience was easy, the ticket on my phone was the ticket to enter so no queuing on the day. I got a handy reminder email a couple of days beforehand with QR codes that scanned at the gate. The actual experience of meeting an astronaut was brilliant, we got to ask lots of questions and he was really interesting and friendly. The breakfast provided was fine - sausage patties in a savoury scone, fruit, yoghurt, granola and pastries. We enjoyed a full day at Kennedy and were even lucky enough to see a launch! I'd definitely recommend this experience to anyone.

The organization went really well. Brad, our guide, was funny and gave us lots of information. And you simply have to experience the Kennedy Space Center. Here, too, we were visited again by Brad in the park, who informed us of any changes to the plans. All in all, a great experience for young and old.

Kennedy Space Center was a great attraction to visit. Extremely informative with great opportunity to experience history of space travel and understand the future of Space Travel. We had organised the breakfast session with an astronaugh which again was interesting and allowed my son (who is an avid space fan) the opportunity to ask questions on all things space. Would thoroughly reccomend.

On returning they had it back to me in minutes, despite dealing with a missing child and a medical emergency. You have a top notch team!

Loved the way they presented their artifacts. The Apollo/Saturn V display was wonderful and brought back many memories. At the end of their audio/video presentation on the shuttle when they revealed the actual shuttle Atlantis, tremendous! It takes your breath away. Loved the astronaut hall of fame and the in memorium for the Apollo and Shuttle astronauts. The background info and personal artifacts displayed actually gave a little insight to the actual people. This is a must see destination not only for space buffs but for young people to educate them on the history and importance of America's space programs.

We are a family group of 12 from Australia. We are so pleased we chose the KSC Small Group VIP Experience. The driver who picked us up at the Resort was prompt, friendly and very knowledgeable. He gave us information about KSC and advice on how to manage our visit. Kennedy Space Centre is an incredible place. Adults and children in our group were totally immersed, and the rain did not affect our enjoyment or ability to have a satisfying experience. The bus tour was epic. Our guide was fantastic - so knowledgeable. We actually could have easily spent another full day at Kennedy Space Centre. We would recommend this small group tour to others. It was a comfortable and quick way to travel to KSC privately as a group. The bus tour was thorough and allowed us time to get off the bus to see things such as the White Room, and our driver was there at the end of the day to take us back to our resort.

I like the convenience of pickup direct from the hotel with breakfast and snacks provided. The tour of the various launch sites was also amazing with some great photo stops and excellent knowledge from the tour gides, however this part of the tour did feel a little long (over 2 hrs) and compromised our ability to visit a few exhibits at the museum. This makes you prioritise what you want to see at the rest of the museum. Our pickup/drop-off guide was very knowledgable about the museum, and gave us the best tips of which parts to see first. so we could then get onto the launch site tour. Overall, a great tour. If you want to see many of the launch sites up close, this one is for you. Plan another day at the museum if you really want to take it all in though.

The driver was great, Preston; went out of his way for us. The van booked was apparently out of commission but Gray Line didn't advise us, just sent Preston with a smaller van. It had enough seats but no room for my transport chair though we'd been very clear we had a stroller and chair. We were forced then to rent a chair for $10, which I feel Gray Line should credit me for. (Preston rented it in his own tab without even telling me it cost him but I found out and paid him back; a good example of his level of service). I understanda unexpected problems arise but it could have been handled much better with communication and on offer to reimburse me for the chair rental. Other than that things went very smoothly. Preston managed all the details very well. Note that I was forced to check an option above but none really fit my particular problem. I chose the closest.

We went to Kennedy Space Center. We purchased the VIP tour. We were picked up at our Resort by Preston. He is awesome! Fun yet professional. The extended tour at Kennedy was a bit much foe me, but husband LOVED it. I would have been happier just going to the rocket without the launch sites. But this was for my husband, so all good. Don't expect to see everything in one day with the extended tour. Research to see what is most important to you. It was Awesome to have Preston drive. We didn't have to worry about the route!

We thoroughly enjoyed the KSC Explorer tour and the guide was very informative. We did not receive the first bullet highlight of this tour: "Get a premium VIP experience complete with your own NASA expert for the day in an intimate small group setting". This particular highlight was the selling point of spending $229 per person and frankly, were very disappointed in what we received for this amount of money. I've been on other VIP tours where a specific guide was assigned to us for the entire time of the tour. I feel this highlight is false advertising and should be removed from the description.

Coming from Germany this ws an experience that you normally don´t do easily. That´s the reason why expectations were high. Everything we have seen was incredible and gave us a deeper understanding. The amount of information is not "makeable" in one day. Especially when in the morning the street to the entrance is closed due to the transport of a space-X rocket module. Instead of starting at 9h we were just able to start at 10h am. Here I would expect to postpone the return journey to have more time. Best regards from Germany Christian

We booked very last minute (the night before) but as soon as we had the booking confirmation from Headout we also received information about our pickup point from Gray Line complete with photos so we knew exactly where to go in the morning which made everything so easy. Our guide Carmen was so lovely, she gave us great tips and information to get the most from our day out and she also told us funny and informative stories about the local area. She also did a fab quiz once we were back on the bus which our son loved taking part in. I would definitely book through Headout if we were in Orlando again

The info pack was good but perhaps the yellow slip recommending to run for the buses and go to Apollo pavilion was the best of all and well worth the money I spent. The host's recommendations on the bus too, made the difference between a fumbling/learning tourist, and the knowledgeable tourist who got the most out of 1 day.

We loved Bob and his commentary! It was a seamless travel experience although a litttle long due to traffic on the way back. We had the best time at Kennedy Space Center, truly memorable and a once in a lifetime experience we will remember always. Chatting with astronaut John Fabian was phenomenal.

There was no good guide for what we were going to experience in each building. Nowhere that felt like it showed a full overview of the history of the space program. The buildings certainly weren't in chronological order and we could easily figure it out. Then when we got to the Atlantis building we had no frame of reference for where we were going or why and we were just stuck behind a ton of loud elementary kids with zero idea of what we were waiting for or even if we should be waiting or if we were accidentally stuck when we could have walked past the kids.

The exhibit that was the marquee for my visit to the Kennedy Space Center was the Shuttle Atlantis. I remember seeing the Shuttle Columbia first take off on TV in the early 1980s as a child, and I hope to see it in person someday. On December 5, 2024, I saw the Space Shuttle Atlantis up close, fulfilling a childhood dream. Thank you Kennedy Space Center for making this possible. All the other exhibits were exceptional as well.

Watching a SpaceX launch from the Saturn V center was amazing. I had always wanted to see an actual flight-item Lunar Excursion Module, so that was a treat. The video presention on the first lunar landing was very well done -- I remember watching it live on television, when it wasn't so clear to the viewing public what was going on with the on-board computer errors. It was fun to trace the history of launch vehicles standing in the rocket garden. The Space Shuttle is well-displayed; you can see it better than you could the one in Los Angeles (which is currently off display until they finish remodeling). The overall approach at the Kennedy Space Center is a bit too reminiscent of a theme park and a bit too heavy on the nationalist propaganda message for my taste; I prefer the more historical and technical style of the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington DC. But that was partially closed for renovation when I was there, and I recommend visiting both. If you want to experience an actual launch, Kennedy is the way to go.

I did not get an audio guide. The guide on the bus was good, but once we got off the bus there was no direction. The lady on the bus was knowledgeable, but she did not take us around the park or suggest going to the guest services desk for insight on which part of the park to go to first. She was very pleasant.

Things to know before booking your Kennedy Space Center tickets

1. The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is spread over 42 acres of land, with over 40 attractions to see. To explore all the attractions inside, set aside an entire day. Familiarize yourself with all the attractions beforehand to ensure you don't miss out on your favorites during your visit.

2. Keep in mind that public transport is not available to get to the Kennedy Space Center. You can either drive down, take a taxi, or book a round-trip transfer. Many of our tickets include round-trip transfers. If you decide to drive, paid parking is available at the Visitor Complex.

3. Although you can explore the premises by yourself, to dive deep and learn more about the facility and NASA's space exploration efforts, book the Kennedy Space Center Explore Tour and learn about the facility along with an expert guide. Please note that the round-trip transfers include a guide-driver who will give you basic information about the facility, however, for a more in-depth experience, choose the Explore Tour.

4. The complex is entirely wheelchair accessible. You can also rent a wheelchair at the information desk. Service animals are allowed inside.

5. For families with young children, strollers can be taken inside. You can also rent a stroller at the center. Food can be carried inside but only in soft-sided containers.

6. If you're worried about leaving your pet alone all day, the Kennedy Space Center has an on-site kennel where your furry mates can spend the day with other pets. It is recommended that you provide food, treats, and toys for your pet.

7. Tickets to add-on experiences like Chat with an Astronaut, the KSC Explore Tour, and the ATX Astronaut Training Experience must be purchased separately.

8. To view a rocket launch, check the schedule of availability and Add-On Admission if available.

9. For tickets with round-trip transfers, pick-up points are available in Orlando, Kissimmee, and the Disney & Lake Buena Vista Areas.

10. Due to its location on government property, there are no hotels close to the Kennedy Space Center. However, accommodation options are available in neighboring areas like Cocoa Beach, Titusville, or Orlando.
