Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex Reviews

Awesome experience. Adding the bus tour on the ticket was so worth it. Being able to see the launch pads, just wow!

The exhibits that were open were very interesting to see. There were still many exhibits closed due to COVID-19. Please know if you have a disability preventing you from wearing a mask you will not be allowed on the property.
This site will be much more interesting when virus concerns are over. Until then there s not much to see.

The experience and history is so amazing this is my 5th time and everytime we come there's something new. Love it

I love this place my only issue is that they close so early. 6pm. We arrived about 2pm and with waiting for the tour bus to go to back hangar, I did not get to enjoy the simulators. I wish they had a comeback tomorrow for x dollars more type of deal....oh well.

Amazing exhibits, inspiring experiences and absolutely stellar knowledgeable staff everywhere!

We went here years ago. I do love everything space and the unknown but it was just too expensive. That is with being a Florida resident. No matter what I feel this is a place that everyone should try at least once. They are always updating the information and adding new things. We had to go online to get a coupon and even then it was very expensive. In the end, it was really neat because we were able to meet an astronaut. I know some of the fun things are for the kids but adults can have fun there as well.

I would say fork out the money and head over to this Space Coast Treasure.

They shut half of the attractions and still change full gate prices. Ripoff!

You need to go at least three times! The history about space exploration is out of this world!

Its okay, after you see it once theres not much else besides the gift shop

This is a great place to expand imagination and wonder for adults and youth alike.

They have accommodations for travellers with limited mobility. They also operate entirely on visitor donations - yet still offer military discounts! I will continue to support the KSC for years to come.

Legend, legend, legend. You have to be and see it with your own eyes

The tour through the rocket garden was great, the bus ride through the starting area with control room inspection also. Unfortunately, you often have to endure ten-minute introductory films (in generally subcooled rooms) before being admitted to the actual exhibits.

I had a wonderful experience during my visit with my students ! The staff is very friendly and ATX training program was excellent.

There was a lot of closed space due to covid, but it was worth seeing.

Less than half of the exhibits are open. On the positive side, there was hardly anybody there.

Paid full price for half of the attraction. The bus tour was not operating even though it says it's available on website. Extra immersive tours are not available due to covid as well. My thing is if they have no problem jamming visitors into 1 building. Then they shouldn't have a problem placing visitors on buses. Only worth the trip once covid restrictions are lifted.

Great place to visit with youngs. Itv encourages then to explore

It looked like a perfect ride, but it started to rain and there was no shelter for the people in line. As I was with a baby, I ended up giving up waiting. I saw only the outside, before the rain, very interesting. Maybe they will provide coverage ...

An awesome experience for the entire family!
Today I had the opportunity to watch the Mars 2020 rover, Perseverance with the helicopter, Ingenuity which will be the 1st craft to fly in planetary atmosphere other than Earth!
There are so many great exhibits to see and short movies to watch, ranging from 10 to 45 minutes, including an IMAX theater.
Kids will be astounded at the Space Shuttle Atlantis building. There are also MANY interactive activities for kids and adults alike.
You can easily spend a full day there and still not see it all!

This was definitely one of the best attractions we visited in Florida. There is a lot to see and experience over here. It's definitely worth 5-6 hours of fun. It's good for kids too. They have a astronaut program for kids.

Atlantis was awesome! The whole park was great! Grandkids loved it too!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The Space shuttle exhibit had us full of emotions.

Very pretty. Interestingly, I recommend you spend hours in that place and you don't even notice it. Visit it on your next vacation.

Very interesting! Amazing sizes of buildings, equipment and rockets! Glimpse into future and past. So exciting in the control room with vibrations and real simulation. Go see it! Buildings with air and seats outside. IMAX Movies and bus tours. Easy to enjoy!

It is out of this world, very educational, lot of robotics. Humanities past, present, and future revolves around everything that the astronauts and Kennedy Space Center have done and are going to do! Space is not the final frontier it is just our destination to the past present and future!

I've never experienced such rude and horrible employees in a place then here if you don't like your job someone else will do it with kindness and respect

Great for kids, not much for adults

Surprisingly light on history of the moon shots. So for those of us old enough to remember the moon it seemed no enough

Lots about the shuttle.

A number of film presentations light on facts and strong on hype and propulsive music.

Nice exhibits on Mars

After seeing actual moon rocks and great museum in NY and Chicago with tremendous displays sort of expected more

But I think for kids it is a lot of fun.

Some surprising gaps (unless I missed it) - Apollo 13, information on the space race with the Soviets, and some sort of tribute to Chuck Yeager.

Was there for Apollo 50th anniversary liftoff. Excellent! Displays were wonderful. Only thing that needed improvement was covering for bandstand as it was extremely hot and hard for seniors. Just a suggestion to provide shade in the future at bleachers.

Bring a shopping cart, lots of space stuff for every age.

It's a good experience, when we went there were not many people and we did not have burdens ..
For my taste missing attractions of the theme, and what we liked most was the 3d video of the hall of fame
The facilities can be traveled on a bus to see how big it is

Must visit if you are a curious or lover of space and science beyond our border.

It was fun had long lines to get into most of the bigger buildings. A lot more to do there than we thought initially when we went. Wish we would have gone earlier.

We were in Dec 2019. An extraordinary and unforgettable experience, the ride is great. Very good employee attention

I think for anyone with science inclination, it's a must go place. Take the bus tour and see and feel the great works done over the decades by NASA. Good place to bring school kids.

Very interesting, essentially traces the last years of NASA history. It's more of an amusement park around American throwers than a museum. The center of Houston is more interesting on this point and better tells the story but less fun.

Amazing!!!!
Diverse attractions and historical items from NASA missions !!!
Unmissable!

Enjoyed the bus tour of the launch pad today. Interesting!

Good educational experience. Got to see rocket launch site and where all of of the planning happens

Great experience but do NOT register for the spacewalk.

A 2-day visit for everything. Amazing. Lots of history.

I am very disappointed with my overall experience. I travel to Florida to visit a friend of mine. While there, there was going to be a SpaceX launch. I was very excited to get to see this. One of the days while I was in Florida we drove over to the Kennedy space center. We had to pay $57 each just to enter. Little did they tell us before we bought a ticket, we would not be getting to see very much. Like everything else in the world, NASA is using the Corona virus as an excuse to get out of doing things. $57 is the full price, but they do not put you on buses and take you around to the launch sites or allow you to do about half the things that they offer. While sitting on the lawn waiting for the shuttle to launch the clock stopped at 15 minutes. Then a man with a microphone announced that the launch had been scrubbed due to a mechanical issue. I would not be as upset about my experience there if they had been upfront with us from the beginning and told us that we would not be able to see and do certain things. they should also offer a discounted price since they are not doing the bus tours.

I loved ... I was interested in everything and very good info ....

You live what they lived in space. Sensational. Very instructive. VERY interesting.

No discount for military because of covid ? Had to pay ten dollars for my Lyft to drop me off( parking fee even for Lyft) And multiple attractions not open. The place is amazing and some of the workers are nice but I feel like I have been ripped off.

Great place... nice attraction for children who love rockets.

Very didactic, unmissable visits, very entertaining guides

It is a Disney for adults. This the theme park entere you can take your children but the adults will also be entertained

Very nice "free tour" (once you pay the admissions), lots to do, ticket good for multiple days.

It is a place full of history and reflects the human longing to know and conquer the space, including the recognition of men and women who have given their own lives. It allows to dimension the ingenuity and the value revealed. Excellent!!!

Awesome place, really good parking an not too crowded

Very interesting and worth visiting for all space enthusiasts! Make shure to check out all available sights on this huge area so that you don t miss out on anything. Especially the Atlantis Space Shuttle and the Saturn V Buildungs are worth spending most of your time here!
Due to its popularity the whole visitor complex is quite crowded even in off-season.

Full tours, good experiences, got your monies worth.

A space travel! This year marks the 50th anniversary of the man on the moon. Then the whole place was decorated and reminiscent of those moments ... had a rocket launch em in celebration historically and incredible how to see in practice what was like in the beginning the clothes the capsules, The moments, The accidents, the failed attempts, And the victories. All in real sizes and stories. Place to eat american style cafeteria, fast food, green food, vegans food ... etc all around environment and air conditioned. People who are cold. Wear light coat. Patience to queue, parking (needless to say it is ample .... very ample ...) Be on time to mark the guided tour if you buy over the internet. Or buy the same. Well worth it. Take the photos on the Moon .

Just an amazing experience! I had a Smithsonian Fellowship that allowed me to be involved in the research needed to create the Air and Space
Museum on the Mall in DC. So I come with some experiences of the challenges in getting folks on the moon.

What the facility for launch represents now...almost indescribable! It was terrific to recall the fuel cells of then and the fuels cells available today..
Not to mention solar possibities!

So being there for a launch to the Space Station, on the grounds, feeling the vibrations, being able to see shift from slow rise of the capsule as it quickly "disappeared" into the night sky...that's why there are now two such buildings to record the continuing of our experiences in space!

And it is all there for visitors to see, learn, and appreciate the investment of $$ and professional lives in such efforts to insure there will always be " New Frontiers" for explorations..!

It is all there for all to see, be amazed and enjoy as I have all my life!!!

This visit was the highlight of our holiday. It was the most amazing place and we were not able to see everything in a day so we plan to visit again. The Center provides some fantastic information on the history of space travel and all families should go here. Great value for money. The Apollo adventure is the most factual story ever and fetches back great memories. Excellent!

Very good, a lot of history gathered about the knowledge of space

Really awesome place where you can see the Atlantis space shuttle! A little confusing layout and not clear on what certain buildings are for.

Many of the things my kids wanted to do were closed. The security people walking around the park watching for face mask violators, and not giving people much time to get them up after pics, was a bit over the top. It definitely wasn t worth the cost of admission for not getting the full experience. All three of our kids were majorly disappointed.

Was expecting more from this place. Wouldn't give back

Amazing environment to spend the day! Super recommend it.

We took advantage of the Brevard County discounted rate and even then it was ultimately disappointing. Future visitors should plan your day accordingly. The visitors center has a huge chunk of the premise closed for renovations, then most things such as the bus tour is closed due to COVID-19 (which is understandable). Despite COVID-19 the IMAX theaters were open, but I didn t feel comfortable sitting with such large groups. I was disappointed even with the discounted price and parking we paid for minimal exhibits being open. I wish there was a warning about the closed exhibits at the ticket center. I would have much rather used the entrance and parking money elsewhere. Overall friendly and helpful staff and employees.

Loved the Kennedy Space Center. Way more than looking at stuff. The center is curated well. All ages will enjoy. If you have little ones bring your stroller. There's lots of walking but also lots of spaces to take a rest. Included in the ticket price is a bus tour to launch pads 39 A and B.

We liked everything. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The whole thing very informative
