What are people saying about Orlando

Kennedy Space Center Express from Orlando

Linda_A, Apr 2026

A great tour once we got the right address to connect w pickup

The tour guide Bob was well prepared and talk and info helpful. Bus driver was terrific. The negative was that the address to meet the bus and idescription that given was in the reserve was totally incorrect and more than 5 minutes from description. It was on a different street. I contacted the Viator site and they gave me correct info. But we easily could have missed the entire tour. Bob and P the driver 5 stars, app directions 0. Thank goodness someone responded to my message when nobody was showing up.

Fantastic and informative day - highly recommended!

A great day which we found very informative and fun as a family, our 11 year old son really enjoyed it especially. Tour guide Bob went above and beyond to welcome us and make sure we had all the information we needed to make the most of our day - thank you Bob!

Michelle_k, Apr 2026

Phenomenal and worth every penny!

Absolutely fantastic trip. From the time we were picked up from hotel to the time of drop off it was a long day ( approx 11.5 hrs), however, was well worth it as NASA blew us away…. The Gray line tour operator certainly know how to recruit well because our guide, Bonni, was just fantastic. Kept us all entertained on the way with fun facts and made suggestions as to how best navigate the site to get the most out of our trip. She certainly looked after us and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Grayline again. I made inquiries prior to the trip to check on timings etc. and was promptly replied to but for us Bonni made it - we need more Bonni’s in the world please 🙌🙌🙌

Manatees!

We enjoyed our tour today. The ride from Orlando is quite long, be prepared. Our driver Mike was personable and courteous. Our tour guides were Captain Misty and Heidi, both very knowledgeable and courteous. You can tell they really care about the manatees and wildlife there.

Totally will use this group again . Great experience.

Easy pick up at a hotel . Communication about the event was clear and questions answered in a timely manor. The only thing I would recommend is that u ask guests to use headphone when listening to their devices or on a phone call while traveling in the van/bus. So We don’t have to listen to several different conversations and videos in addition to the radio.

Day Trip to Historic St. Augustine from Orlando with Hotel Pickup

Terry_K, Jan 2026

Could take longer than...

Could take longer than expected with hotel pickups and traffic. Took almost 2 hours to get there and almost 3 hours coming back. The driver, Ishmael, was a good driver and very personable. St Augustine is such a quaint town and we loved the Lightner Museum and walking through the shops on St George St and seeing the inside of St Augustine church.

Take a walk on the wild side

Our guide/driver Mauricio was awesome giving us clear instructions. Our airboat captain Mike was fantastic, an awesome lookout stopping to show us as much as possible in the Everglades, making the trip even more special. The venue has a great range of activities for young and old.
