We enjoyed the tour of Kennedy Space Center very much. The buses were prompt and comfortable. The drivers were polite, helpful and pointed out things of interest along the way (even an eagle's nest with 2 eagles sitting nearby). He also showed us where other animals could be seen. Very interesting, short, non-boring videos at each site. Our favorite spot was the control center and the blast off simulation of the bldg. shaking, etc. Great experience.

My five year old grandson and I spent a wonderful day at the Kennedy Space Center. He was not too young to enjoy and understand the wonderful exhibits and hands on experiences. And, I was not too old to enjoy the ability to move around the grounds at our own pace. Everyone at the site was friendly, helpful and genuine in their enthusiasm in sharing the Space Program with young and old alike. It was a wonderful side trip from the make believe world of Disney, and even more awesome,

Every family, if possible, should take their family to the Kennedy Space Center to see what is going on in space and how it's going to effect their lives in the future.

We timed to coincide with orbital launch but the mission was delayed with the hydrogen leak, wouldn't you know it! Still if interested in this stuff a delightful trip. It's also 40 miles from Orlando so plan ahead and take the day.

Lots of fun and extremely enjoyable. The tour guide was personable and very informative. We loved the lunch with an astronaut, who was an excellent speaker and very personable.

The space center was very interesting. You should allow a full day to tour. Ensure there is not a launch on the day of your visit since there are three facilities that necessitate a bus to visit in addition to the main facility. On launch days, all bus tours are canceled. Overall, a worthwhile trip.

Parents had to turn in their strollers at the end of the lines and then wait in sometimes really long lines with children in hand. This was inconvenient, but otherwise we had a great time.

Great experience but needed more direction early on as to where certain experiences were located.

Although we enjoyed the day, we felt that there could have been more to do here. At the least don't spend more than 7 hours on your visit, treat it as one of your lighter days. Was worth seeing though! The rockets are amazing, makes you feel small. And recommend the simulation ride, it was really fun. Can't take cool boxes in because they have strict security. Plan to buy lunch there. There was a cafe on the coach tour route. The last visit on the tour was a little boring so don't stay long, only take 2.5 hrs max and spend rest of time at main base.

Group and voucher line was much longer than for normal ticket buyers - a real disadvantage to have a voucher!

Really enjoyed our day at Kennedy Space Center. We have kids, and this was by far their favorite activity for the entire Florida vacation. Highly recommended.

This is the best day out, and a great value for money of our whole trip to Florida. We arrived as the gates opened at nine in the morning and spent the whole day at the space center. The pass is actually good for two consecutive days, and it would make the trip even more fun and interesting to spread it out over the two days. The Space Museum is also included in the ticket.

The Kennedy Space Center was wonderful. It was definitely worth the money. We did the basic tour. You can spend 8 hours there and not be bored!
