1st January was a good choice. Not many people and short waiting times, but on the flipside the weather was rather chilly. The rocket garden was a bit floppy. The guide's microphone kept breaking up against a backdrop of lawn mower and fountain sounds. Once in the gantry 39 the countdown for the mock ignition told a time of 15 minutws that was not followed by the operator who switched it on in advance, while we were watching the Earth exhibition. We then were told to wait for 20 minutes that ended up being 35. Appart from this two issues, the rest went fine. As for the rides, the state of the art allows for more inmersive experiences if you compare it with a theme park. It is an incredible experience if you are a space fanatic. If yoy just look for something to do it will please you.

We had such an amazing time visiting the NASA Space Center. From the moment we walked in, everything felt exciting, educational, and truly inspiring. The exhibits were interactive and easy to enjoy at our own pace, and we loved learning about past missions, current projects, and future plans for space exploration. The rocket garden and Atlantis exhibit were definite highlights — standing so close to something that’s actually been in space was unbelievable. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even better by offering fun facts and answering questions. It’s the kind of place that makes both kids and adults feel curious and energized. We left with great memories and a deeper appreciation for NASA’s incredible work. We are ready to be astronauts :)

Very pleasant visit, my 7 yr old loved it. Between Christmas and New Years' Eve, we came early to be on the first bus tour and avoid the crowd especially at the Saturn V Building. That said the coold thing is that you are not tied to a specific bus which means you can stay in this building as long as you whish. Bus groups arrive in batches so when they leave it seems you can almost have the entire hall just for you. The Atlantis Building is also great. My only regret is the tour does not include a stop at the Vehicle Assembly Building. It is probably a restricted area so the bus just passes by from a distance. Have your camera ready to shoot your best photos. If you are around and space and rockets make you dream KSC is a piece of history and definitely a must see.

    An Amazing Day at Kennedy Space Center! Perfect for Kids :) We had an absolutely fantastic visit to the Kennedy Space Center! I brought my family, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable experiences we’ve had together. From the moment we walked in, the staff made everything feel welcoming, engaging, and incredibly fun for young explorers. To be specific, we loved the following things. 1. My son was completely absorbed in the interactive displays—pressing buttons, launching mini‑rockets, and learning through play. It’s the perfect blend of education and excitement. 2. Seeing actual rockets and space capsules up close sparked so many questions and “wow” moments. It’s one thing to read about space… it’s another to stand right next to the machines that made history. 3. The center does an amazing job of explaining big concepts in ways kids can understand. My son left talking about astronauts, gravity, and planets like a pro. 4. The live presentations were a huge hit. They kept both adults and kids entertained while teaching something new. Even on a busy day, everything felt smooth and well‑run. 5. Last but not the least, we were amazed by an awesome drone show in the end. If you’re looking for a family outing that’s fun, inspiring, and genuinely educational, this is the place. My son is already asking when we can go back, and honestly, I’m excited too. Highly recommended for curious kids and space‑loving grown‑ups alike.

    It was an unexpected opportunity, because we had an emergency stop in Palm Bay going to Orlando... and we ended having an extraordinary adventure with my kids (17 & 9). Sunday Jan 4th was our day, not crowded at all, good timing at the attractions... We loved most the Atlantis experience, the simulator, the "landing" slide, all the info and story.... And also we had a wonderful guide on the bus tour and loved the Apollo experience too, just saying 'fly me to the moon' all the way. Only disappointed about the moon rock... Hahaha we got just staring... It looked so earth-like..! Really don't know what kind of minerals are there but... we just expected to find a big rock... more moon-like hahahahha (I know our ignorance is speaking here haha but yes, we could not feel "the moon-wow-emotion" with that little black stone) We couldn't get the ATX either because we did not plan the visit, but we heard a lot of good thinks about it. We also loved to know about the wildlife conservation, and had the chance to see alligators, crocodiles and a lot of birds Everything was very cool, clean, respectful, very interesting and meaningful... good options at the gift shop, too... We'll certainly be back in our next trip to central Florida! Thank you so much!

    Witnessed one of the best places I have experienced so far; a bit inspired by my visit to the National Air and Space Museum in WashingtonDC in the past. Wonderful to see how a war between two superpowers in space fueled a technological revolution and deep-space exploration. Competition to push humanity beyond Earth. From the missions of Gemini and Apollo to now Artemis; a timeline full of stories with successes and failures. Apollo 11 - the first human footprint on the Moon, while Apollo 13 - “a successful failure”. JFK’s vision still speaks loudly: “We choose to go to the Moon… not because it is easy, but because it is hard” The giant Hubble telescope, massive space shuttles, tons of rockets, launch pads, launch stations, and that crazy tall Vehicle Assembly Building - everything was just an engineering marvel. All I can say is “I love my space” 😄 And yes, gravity was optional for my excitement.🤪

    Kennedy Space Center is simply outstanding. The shows, the opportunity to see rockets in their real, full scale, and the sheer amount of information you take in make a visit truly unforgettable. The highlight for me was the Space Shuttle experience. After watching the movie, the final image shows a shuttle at a specific angle. Then the screen slowly lifts—and suddenly, the real shuttle is right there behind it. I needed a few seconds to realize that what I was seeing was not a projection, but the actual spacecraft. Don’t miss this experience. You will enjoy it—whether you’re a space enthusiast or not.
