I visited the KSC with a friend from San Diego. She was amazed by the sites. We first took the bus tour and she was fascinated by the first launch experience, the size of the rockets and the film etc. "Ok, how do we leave now?" "Not yet, I responded. There is more to see. Much more," I responded. She was blown away by the next launch experience and so much more. Exhausted and exhilarated, understanding so much more about NASA and it's goals, we left the KSC at 5:00pm. She was amazed. It was soo worth it. And we didn't see everything!

From the first exhibit all the way through the last it was absolutely amazing. My favorite part was Atlantis. Seeing the shuttle on display and learning the history behind how it was conceptualized to the finished shuttle was very intriguing. Honoring those that sacrificed their lives for the space program was an emotional display of respect. The Astronaut Hall of Fame was unexpected. I didn't realize the number of astronauts that have not only reached that level of respect and honor but just existed!

Visiting the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex was much more impressive than I expected. The best part isn't just the attractions, but standing in front of the actual Saturn V and seeing up close a piece of space history that took man to the moon. The bus tour is totally worth it because it takes you right up to the actual launch sites and makes the visit feel authentic, not just like a tourist museum. Even if you’re not a space fan, it’s one of those places worth seeing at least once.

Kennedy Space Center is AMAZING! If you haven't been to this park you are really missing a TON! The exhibit on the Space Shuttle is very interactive, interesting and informative. The bus tour is great as it takes you to the outlying parts of the property without having to walk. All the staff is friendly and very helpful. Treat yourself and that space nut in your family to an extremely fun two days, and buy the 2 day pass. You will not regret it.

Our day began with the most fantastic breakfast and conversation with Captain Stephen Frick first thing. That very special conversation set the tone for a wonderful experience learning about space travel history and hope for missions going forward. Displays of artifacts and exhibits were wonderful. To finish it off with the dramatic introduction of Atlantis was wonderful! Every experience was very well done. I would highly recommend!

The tour was very well organized. We got right On our bus practically no wait at all. We stopped at several key sites around the Kennedy Space Center with enough time to get out of the bus To explore the site and learn about the exhibit. The highlight for me was the Apollo mission building. The shear size of the rocket and the Lunar lander were hard to believe

A very enjoyable and informative visit. Good value for money. The bus tour was excellent and the Atlantis shuttle attraction was simply awesome. A few good simulators too. Plenty clean restrooms and good places to eat. The staff were genuine and some really enthusiastic about their jobs. A great day out totally recommend.

Ordering was super easy, and it was cool getting notifications via WhatsApp... We were speechless at times and had some goosebumps moments. The price was great, and the food was delicious. What we liked best was the rocket launch. You probably only get to experience something like that live once in a lifetime. It was awesome.
