The space centre museum provided a fascinating look back at early exploration of space, the moon landings, space shuttles and station, triumphs and tragedies and a view to the future of space exploration. A particular highlight was the inspiring talk by former astronaut Jim Newman. Altogether a great day out.

Kevin our tour guild was great, a good mix of information about our travels. We were picked up at Icon Park at 8am for our one hour trip to Kennedy Space Station. The Space station was an eye opener with the shear mass of the rockets. Very informative and interesting. We were picked up by Keven at 4.50pm. The trip back was over two hours with many drop offs of other guests. This was too long at the venue and the day dragged out. A shorter day would have suited us much better. Cost to us was $486.78 aud = $319usd. If I would have researched better I would have used an Uber both ways and bought the tickets on arrival saving us time and money.

What an awesome experience! Oscar was our tour driver. He was on time, drove well, and was informative. His suggestions for experiencing KSC was on point. It enabled us to make the most out of the trip. He was waiting exactly where he said he would be at the end of the day with refreshments. To top it off, as he dropped us off at our hotel a Falcon 9 rocket launched and we watched it. Awesome Oscar! Couldn’t have asked for a better time.

The Space centre itself was brilliant but the day started & ended badly. Our morning pick up was half an hour late (we had to get up at 6.30 am to walk to the pick up location for 7.50am) . The tour guide Kevin was polite & knowledgeable. I could not understand why he kept asking for applause for the stand-in driver.....a good company should have these problems covered should they occur...(Applauding for being inconvenienced!..really?) The return journey back to the pick up point took 2 hours!...if we had been told prior to the tour about this we would not have used this transportation. A good day out was spoilt by the pick up & return journey to the pick up point . Once back at the pick up we had a further 20 minute walk back to our hotel....not a long walk i know but it is with a badly swollen & painful leg .

3 of us took the Explore tour leaving from Orlando and headed to Kennedy Space Center. We added the Explore tour at the Center and were not disappointed. One of our party is an electrical engineer and he said the tour has rekindled his engineering instincts. There was simply no part of this adventure that was not great!

We were fortunate enough as late comers for Simon at Orlando attractions to arrange a last minute birthday trip for my family and I through Gray Line. It was superb. A full day of fun, knowledge, incredible tours/talks and simulator etc experiences. Gray line, particularly Carlos and Bonni got us there safe and sound with lots of fun facts and jokes 😊
