​Plan Your Visit to Kennedy Space Center

What to Expect on Your Kennedy Space Center Bus Tour?

Once you have boarded the bus, prepare yourself for a 40-minute tour through NASA’s property. The Kennedy Space Center Bus Tour will take you behind NASA’s gates in an unexpected way. With the help of an expert space tour guide, you will be given a peek into the most mission-critical regions of the ​Kennedy Space Center.

Ride through monumental sites within NASA’s gates, including the Vehicle Assembly Building, Launch Complex 39, and many other facilities in between. Since the Kennedy Space Center and the ​Cape Canaveral Air Force Station are both working launch facilities, the tour routes can be changed at any time.

Toward the end of your bus tour, you will get down at the ​Apollo/Saturn V Center where NASA’s Project Apollo comes into existence. Here, you can tour at your own pace and explore the many exhibits. Once done, board another bus and you can head back to the main visitor complex. It is recommended to keep 2-hours aside when taking the bus tour and exploring the Apollo/Saturn V Center.
