Definately a 5 star attraction! So much to see and do. Lots of tours and shows and exhibits. You cant see everything in one day! Park is very immaculately clean and the staff are all super friendly and will engage with you for as long as you have questions. The food is decent ok priced and gift shop prices are not horrible honestly compared to the theme parks. You cant miss this if your in the area!

Step one. Arrive early. Step two. Go non-stop til closing to see everything. Superbly produced exhibits and video presentations. Everything up to date. Tons of history and fun for all ages. Bus tours are great and plentiful as lines move pretty quickly. So much to see an do. Plenty of places to eat. Save the Atlantis for last and be wowed. The launch experience is a must do.

I loved it because I like new inventions and technology. Space program is nothing, but invention of new technology and it teaches us to dream big.
If you never try due to fear of failure, you will never successed.

PROS:
The tour guides and staff we interacted with were outstanding.
The facility and all of the content, rides, history, were amazing!
Parking and access to the park was great, easy in, easy out.
Do yourself a favor and ride the Shuttle Launch Experience ride. It was great.

CONS:
Price. Sweet Jesus, this place is expensive!
The other thing we HATED was how they usher you in to each exhibit and more/less trap you in a room and force you to watch a 15 minute video over the exhibit. I'm sure we could have gotten up and left and gone straight to the exhibit, but they clearly don't want you to do that. I felt like it was some weird form of crowd control. We found it annoying.

Overall, it's Kennedy Space Center! The amount of history there is insane. I think my entire family had much more fun than we'd anticipated. It's worth seeing for sure, but bring your wallet and prepare to sit in lines and wait for everything.

If your into space travel and it's history this is the place for you. Run entirely from the monies received from admission charges, it seemed somewhat dated and in need of some updating in places. A bit pricey for admission for what you get, a bottle of water is almost $4.00 but I guess on target with theme parks. The shuttle exhibition was the best part. The entire park can easily be seen in one day. It's a good educational experience.

I read other reviews before writing this, and I have no idea how people could make it thru all the exhibits, tours, shows in only 2 hours. It takes a day. Also saw many reviews that it was boring. Many said there was nothing to do while at the same time saying they didn't take any tours.
Don't believe any of those reviews. This place is filled with the history of space travel as well as exhibits on the future of space travel. One tour I suggest everyone do is the special behind the scenes historical tour. You get to stand on launch complex 34 where Apollo 1 fire occurred, see all the old equipment used at the time. It is awe inspiring. If you have no interest in America's space history, you should by the time you complete a visit here. Expensive, but worth it. But if you are looking for thrill rides like Disney, well....

I recommend to all lovers of technology. You will be satisfied. Near Titusville, great nature with crocodiles, dolphins and flamingos. Book a few hours to the space center, be sure before 14. The last bus traveling around the area leaves at 15.30

Love love the place. An enjoyable experience. Drove an hr to get to Cape Canaveral from Orlando. Exhibits are amazing and spent an entire day at the park. Worth the time and money spent. A must visit place.

Amazing experience. The Atlantis shuttle and the Challenger memorial are my favorite. The gift shop is huge and full with space merchandise. They do have a kennel. I think it s a great for children and adults. I highly recommend it. If you are planning to visit for the weekend I would suggest you stay at Cocoa Beach. Make sure you buy tickets ahead of time so you are aware of times and different options.

2018, JANUARY 20th VISIT

One Day is Quite Sufficient if one arrives at opening.
(~40 minutes in line to clear security)

Everything closed at 4PM not at 6PM as posted.

After 4PM the attractions are all shut down and only the food court was open.

Plan to catch the last showings of the 2 available 3D movies or else the remaining time at the park is like walking in a ghost town.

After 4PM we were turned away from every attraction's entrance!
Tried to reenter Space Shuttle so kids could at least play inside due to the cold but we were turn away with a simple sorry.

SO COOL!! My friend and I had a fantastic time here! Their shows are interesting and creative, their displays and information are easy to read, they have good food, and it never hurts to have a Starbucks. We're so excited to go back.

Brevard residents get a huge discount in October. Check their FB posts for details. We've gone a couple times and it's well worth it. To see everything it'll take at least 2 days especially if you want to see it all at your leisure. My favorite is the Space Shuttle. Be prepared to walk a lot but many things are seated. Well worth the money.

KSC is amazing, a bit too biased towards SLS but still a great place to visit. They need to do more to showcase the great work NASA is doing with SpaceX and others. I would recommend a visit, get there early and enjoy the day. The Saturn V centre is the highlight of the day.

Great place to do a one day visit and learn all about the past space program and what is currently taking place. For the most part all of the activities and interactions are included in the admission price. The astronaut training is a separate cost and will require reservation ahead of time. Food quality is average for the price. Popcorn in IMAX theater is very tasty. You are more than welcome to carry in your own lunch. Good attraction for the price.

Waaaaay too expensive for a family with young children. $270 US for 2 adults, an 11 year old, a 7 year old and a 5 yr old. For the experience which was great to see as adults, I wouldnt have done this one with the young kids for the price.

Amazing experience. It is a dream come true been there.

If you are a first time visitor, try to arrive some minutes before the doors are open. It is needed more than 1 day to meet all attractions and areas.

This is more a museum than an event park.

This is more a museum than an event park.

The Yankee style is a patriotic place, but here you see a lot of things that have not come to mind.

For example, how big and difficult the operation has been to fly to space for the first time.
For itself, it has always been a matter of course, but when the airplanes were "almost invented", dreaming about space may have seemed to ordinary people almost the same as sending a man to Mars at the moment.

It's a great time to see Atlantis for the first time. I do not change it.

Awesome.

This is one of the most interesting places you can visit in Florida. Although you can t see everything in only one day. My tip is to take the bus tour first, that would be a 2 hour tour. When you come back, you should definitely visit the Atlantis Center and try the simulator. The way they present Atlantis is awesome. It s a must-see. The other attraction I suggest is the Journey to Space 3D at the imax theater.

They charge you full admission fee for less than half the park open due to Covid, rip off.. Not worth the trip for less than half the park functioning.

I complaining to them for a partial refund.

Thanks

I think it's kinda expensive at $57 for adults, but the exhibits are bar-none from the handful of space-related places I've been to. The Atlantis is easily the coolest part, but be sure to see as much as you can and get your money's worth. This includes a bus tour/trip to the Saturn V facility.

The past, present, and future of America's human spaceflight program is here on display! Great depth and insight on all the exhibits... Especially witnessing the space shuttle Atlantis up close. Ad Astra!

Loved our visit here. There's so much to do you can't do it all in one visit unless you get there for 9am and stay until the place closes. Food and drink is pricey but all proceeds are going towards the NASA program so looking at it that way, I don't mind contributing my money. Really enjoyed the Apollo 50th anniversary exhibition. and the bus tour. Absolutely worth multiple visits if you're into space, NASA, want a fun day out and love to learn.

Amazing and Awe-inspiring!

Amazing and Awe-inspiring!
Well worth the cost of admission.
Very well organized and friendly. Visually appealing. NASA is huge and lots of information to read and take in. Plan for a full day visit!
