Many consider the best day to visit Kennedy Space Center to be any weekday, especially when school’s in session—that way, you’ll avoid both the weekend crowds and the family vacationers.

Kennedy space Center tour

Pick up location was very easy to locate. Buses were clean and driver was very friendly. The actual space center is amazing, but please know that it takes more than one day to tour. I think we will probably go back another day on our own.

Great for a hot day because mostly you are indoors. Except for the bus tour line you are out of the sun and seeing cool things.

Dreadful transport experience

The Kennedy space centre was brilliant. The transport was a nightmare, late in picking us up and took over 2.5 hours for the return journey. The driver got lost several times. There was nothing VIP about the experience he didn’t attend the excursion we were left at the main entrance to the bus excursion.

Brilliant family trip to Kennedy space centre

This is a really interesting informative and entertaining trip. The driver Kevin was very helpful and informative and all round good guy. The centre itself was out of this world literally. There is something for everyone. Only drawback was the food at the orbit cafe - which was unpalatable. But the space centre itself is an absolute must see in Orlando. Thanks Kevin for a wonderful day.
