My husband and I had a great day on this tour. Thankfully our hotel was one of the pick up and drop off points which definitely helped. Being able to relax on the bus and take in the surroundings was great. We enjoyed wandering around exploring the Kennedy Space center. The icing on the cake was it was a launch day, so being able to watch that from the bleachers was a once in a lifetime experience for us.We were really keen to be able to go on an airboat ride so we were very happy when we saw that there was a tour that included this. We had a great ride and were thankful for the cool breeze on the warm day.I would definitely recommend taking this tour.

KSC was really great. Amazing to see the rockets up close and learn about them. The VR Experience is a must, that was a lot of fun! The Airboat driver was brilliant and very informative with his local knowledge and years on the river. We saw lots of alligators, cattle & bird wildlife. Mauritcio was so friendly and full of helpful hints and facts. He definitely made our day as efficient as possible, giving us lots of time with his itinerary order. Thanks so much

Greg and the Gray Line Tour team were great. Super friendly staff. We were picked up down the street from our hotel and taken directly to NASA. Along the way Greg gave us all amazing tips to maximize the most out of our time there and it made a huge difference. Our group decided to add on the Airboat tour and we highly recommend you think about doing the same! Super fun and a great way to learn a bit about the Florida "wildlife". After our Airboat ride we picked up everyone else at NASA and went back to our meeting spot. Super convenient.

Itinerary

After leaving Central Florida your Gray Line tour guide will give you lots of hints and tips to ensure you make the best use of you time at the visitor center. They will accompany you inside and ensure your day is planned so you can explore independently the space center!

At the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex you will learn everything about space travel.
Enjoy the Shuttle Launch Experience. It replicates the sights, sounds and feelings of a shuttle launch, an incredible journey of launching into space and orbiting Earth aboard a Space Shuttle. Guest crew members strap in and go vertical for launch in a one-of-a-kind, motion-based simulator, the only realistic simulation of a launch ever created. The 5-minute experience sequence culminates with a breath-taking view of the Earth.

Within the facility you can also join the narrated NASA bus tour. At the Apollo Saturn V Center , you will find yourself standing inside the launch control room and then looking at an actual Saturn V rocket - the largest rocket ever to fly! After the bus tour, sit back and enjoy an IMAX movie.

Why not choose to stroll by a scale-size space shuttle, look at a moon rock or try space ice cream? This is a day of fun for the whole family!

The tour also includes a 30-minute airboat ride to discover the beauty of the swamps. Look for exotic plants, flowers and wildlife such as the main inhabitant of the swamp.... the alligator! We transport you from the space center over to the St. Johns River where you will board the airboat for 30 minutes of high speed adventures gliding across the waters.

From nature to space, this tour offers something for everyone.
