We visited the Kennedy Space Center with our grandchildren (7&9), and took the Guided Explore Tour. Our guide was great, he shared information about the history of the Space Center and the new Private Partnerships with SpaceX and Blue Orgin. Visiting Launch Sites 39A& B was exciting as we have watched numerous launches over the years from these sites. Seeing the size of the "Crawlers" was amazing, to think they can carry the Rockets from the Assembly Buildings to the Launch Pads is really impressive. Seeing the full size Saturn V Rockets suspended above our heads was awe inspiring. It was exciting to see the Lunar Rover and the LEM on display. Overall this was a great tour and our only regret is that we only had one day to visit. We will return and plan to purchase the 2-Day Ticket as there is so much to see!

My girlfriend and I traveled from Naples to Titusville. We had to take care of some business late that afternoon. We wanted something interesting to do that morning. We bought two tickets to visit the Kennedy space center. I was skeptical before entering the center. It didn't take long for me to get blown away by the bravery of all the astronauts, the work that the employees put to get everything for a perfect launch, all the instructive videos, the professionalism of the staff and the display. I highly recommend a visit to the KSC even if you have to drive long distance. Bring your kids with you.

We especially loved the video about the 'almost failure' of the Apollo Mission when the communication was interrupted due to computer issues. My husband and I were weeping with memories, as well as compassion for all of those who had put so much energy into this mission. Our little granddaughter loved the simulators, especially. And the gorgeous displays, especially the HUGE rockets hanging above our heads. We're so grateful to everyone who has worked so hard to build this beautiful tribute to the past missions and continue to move forward with amazing technology and research. Thank you!

The guided bus tour was amazing. We got a wealth of information and saw so much. The tour is two hours but they fail to mention that the Apolo Mission building is huge and you need about an hour to see and do everything there. That was the best part of the tour but we were rushed because we had a prior engagement. Plan accordingly and have fun!!!
