Orlando for first-timers

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!

Tengo 2 hijos, uno de 5 y otro de 10 , los 2 se lo pasaron de maravilla. Filas muy rápidas y todo muy cuidado. Areas verdes donde el frescor se siente. Muy complacidos!

Prepare yourself to experience something approximately 300% more interesting than you predict it will be. There is so much to see, touch, climb on, listen to, learn from, and just walk around being amazed. We wished we would have planned for 2 days there to see everything. The first things we see led to the next 10 things. We opted in for the Chat with an Astronaut which was a highlight of our entire trip which included Universal Studios! Kathryn Thornton is a national treasure and gave an impressive talk. A big plus is that the snacks served were spectacular as well. We still talk about the banana pudding. Thank you Kennedy Space Center for being the highlight of our trip. Being back home, the Universal days are fading to memory but the Kennedy day is still talked about! Truly an amazing place.
