Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex Reviews

Great place to visit when in Orlando very educational and awesome experience overall

This place is great if you grew up watching the shuttle launches. Glad I get to take my son here and see his eyes light up like mine used to.

Great Experience. Not everything was open but we receive an additional ticket for next year

Soooo worth the visit! If you want to come from Orlando by bus (transport only), look on the internet for the company FLORIDA DOLPHIN TOURS and you will pay around US $ 59 round trip per person. For the rest you will spend $ 20 to $ 40 per person on food and drink as it is a day's visit, if you don't buy any tempting souvenirs.

Fun time with amazing educational aspect to things that you don't notice. Like space center meets disney.

Get out a little bit of the earth and literally go into space !!!

We went for the Falcon 9 rocket launch, but we stayed for all the sweet astronaut food!

Very interesting exhibits, even more so if you get excited about space travel and its history. Everyone should visit at some point just to get a true sense of what NASA does and how their accomplishments have been shaping our lives for decades.

If you like history and technology this is the place to visit. It is a venue that honors our astronauts specially those who died in their effort to advance science and technology.

If you are in the vicinity is definitely a small visit.
The staff is very friendly and helpful.
The terrain itself is manageable and there are also maps in German.
We had the time to make the bus tour which is also highly recommended that this is very informative, and you see a lot of things.
The waiting times at the "attractions" realtiv long why we did not visit any "attraction", but that was not bad because you get through the various info boards also enough information.

A good place for family. A lot to learn and experience. Only got a chance to see the space shuttle. They also offer bus tour through the Kennedy space base.

You could definitely spend an entire day here. If you get there at opening so the bus tour first. It s two hours and the line will be about that long for it by mid day. There was only about a 10 minute wait for Atlantis but that was my favorite and where there was the most to do indoors. There is an outdoor but shaded kids playground. The hall of heros is two 7 minute shows but the second one is 3D and may be intense for young ones. There is a lot of simulators and 3D style videos which are not great for people who get motion sickness. I did not eat but saw two cafes one with outdoor seating and one with indoor. There is also a large store that s two stories. If there is a chance of rain make sure to bring an umbrella since the buildings are spread out. Also allow plenty of time to get through security. The line is all in the sun and they check bags and strollers well. All adults and children also pass through a metal detector.

Went during the time of COVID in the fall of 2020 with my 7 year old. The weather was nice and it wasn't too busy. Good for a half day trip if you're in the area. Newfound amazement in how folks took our space program from nothing to great heights (pun intended).

Cool place visit and learn about the history of the space program

I could go on about how awesome the exhibits are and the size of the rockets in real life and blah blah blah. IT S NASA!!! I d give it 10 stars but google only goes to 5. Plus you get to see Space X launch facility and that is icing on the cake. Forget Disney this is we re it s at.

I've always wanted to come to the Kennedy Space center. We made a half a day out of it when you could easily spend a day or 2 going through everything. The weather was rainy or we probably would have spent more time there. I was impressed with how large the property is. The bus tour is a must and that was probably my favorite part of the day. I learned alot and I'd definitely go back again.

Well lots to say. It's not what I hope it will be. Most it is replicas not authentic deal. Only what is good its that you can say to your friends that you was there. Nothing spectacular in this place.

Expected much better experience. Long queue everywhere and lot of movies instead of real stuff.

Phenomenal mesuem, outstanding tours and displays. Would recommend a hundred times over!

Totally interesting. Very modern mediation of the history of space technology

When we visited there were plans to launch a rocket that night so parking started to fill up as early as 1 PM. We saw a lot but were not able to see everything which bummed me out.

Very cool place to visit, make sure you get to do the bus tour!

Wonderful. The Saturn V is a show stopper. A must see.

Just awesome, all history...God bless the USA...We have come a long ways since Sputnik....

Seeing the original Atlantis Apollo spaceships and others is a huge impression. The only thing I was worried about how it would appeal to a child who does not speak English and in fact there are a lot of movies that need to be watched to move on. Still, it's worth it.

Could have spent a few days here. Bus tour was awesome. Learned so much.

NASA was on our way to Cocoa Beach, so we had to stop. Because we were there in October it wasn't busy at all. This is a must see for all ages. So glad we stopped.

Our educator John was fantastic and very patient with the kids and with questions we all had. The only thing is I would certainly like to see more African-Americans be recognized for ALL that they have done and continue to do. Then things will be fair.

A small ride on a simulator everything else was movies that you can see on TV. $22.00 for two hotdogs and 1 fry with a tasteless watery cheese sauce and bottled water. They close early. 60.00 buxs

Dream of going out into space? This the place to visit. NASA has every space mission on record there. Replicas and actual rockets and capsules are on display. I got to experience how it feels inside the Atlantis on take off and into space. Amazing! Lot of souvenirs shops and cafeterias. There's also a bus tour of the launch pads. Must visit to Orlando.

This was our second visit. So enjoyable and is constantly being improved. Example was the videos on the buses as we toured the launch pads and NASA assembly building. And the buses were clean and apparently run on propane as there was no diesel smell. 5 stars KSC!!

Great time and a lot of fun full of history. Well worth a visit or three.

Nice one. Well maintained. Must visit place in Florida.

The place where we should visit once in a lifetime.

Definitely at favorite place to visit. Tons to see and learn. Take your time there it is worth it.

Faced with all the fantasy of the region, here is the reality!

Spectacular, an unforgettable experience, as close to space.

Very well done!! Exhibite outstanding!! Tour exceptional!!

I was doing a delivery service drop off excellent and professional people there

Always a nice educational way to spend your day. Wish there was a little bit more to do with just admission. Anything really interesting requires an extra reach into your wallet.

Pretty cool place. Longer lines due to covid. Bus service was not running. Lyft and Uber do pickup and deliver. Both around a hundred dollars back to Orlando. Buy tickets before you get in the security line.

The best experience ever. A bit costly but we'll with the visit.

Incredible place where much of the history of space exploration was made.

Excellent place to visit. When you arrive it might not look like there's that much there, but make sure you go on the bus trip to see the site and Saturn V. The IMax is good and the Atlantis display is excellent. You can easily spend the whole day here.

Best place to visit with kids You cant just go for a day! Enjoy this place for a week!

Absolutely amazing! Lots more added since the last time I was there. Sometimes moved to tears. Cafe good, great facilities.

Omnipresent music and always the same air pocket. Must renew itself. Not bad but nothing new for several years

A unique place, a must visit when you go to Florida! The tour is very educating for young and old.

What a cool.place with really awesome history ...great for families

The Space center is worth a visit, especially for those with an interest in a NASA history items and exhibits found on site included the US astronaut Hall of Fame the former launch countdown clock a garden with various rockets astronaut training simulators in the space shuttle Atlantis you can also take a tour of the property facility watch the space themed IMAX movie or even have your photo taken with a real astronautIt s $57 for an adult we got there at 9 AM and we left at six it was a very casual day not too crowded

It was breathtaking to see the SpaceX launch pad and Space Shuttle Atlantis. Beautiful and amazing visiting this spaceport!

What an amazing experience! Something NOT to miss if ever in the area. Get the Military or Senior (55+) pricing if possible. Get there early, 0900, and get into the Atlantis first, as it gets crowded fast. The take the bus and make sure you are on the passenger side of the bus for best views! Definitely hit the IMAX films as they are incredible. Plan to spend a full day there too.

Good for half day. Some activists requires reservations

The bus tours and exhibits were excellent. Saw a SpaceX Falcon 9 on the pad.

Second star because is of the nasa, but the times are too bad, waiting for all attractions( attraction of 20 minutes , waiting time 40 mins), no social distancing, no too much sanitizing spots and too much people everywhere.

Seeing the Shuttle Atlantis was great. Plus the Imax show was good. The Hall of Hero's was also good.

I always have a blast here! Everyone is so nice and the customer service especially over the phone is very kind and helpful! Very nice staff!

Grat place to see everything to do with space exploration. Something for the whole family.

If you are interested in the past and present of space flight or want to see a launch this is the place to go. Plenty of things to do to keep you busy for a day or two.

Definitely an adventure! So much history here. If you re going for one of the launches, definitely show up a few hours early to check out the visitor center complex.

They stuffed the place so full of people that we really only had time to see the space shuttle, eat, and ride the bus to see the Saturn V in 7 hours.

Excellent tour option for anyone who is in Orlando and region ... It is worth separating all day, as there are some tours to know the rest of the launch base that takes from 2 to 3 hours ...
Worth the visit !!!

It s a must see place for anyone visiting and locals alike! An outdoor garden of rockets, astronaut hall of fame, numerous shows/talks covering a bunch of topics, Atlantis space shuttle on display, a rocket launch simulation and more! So much history from here don t miss out on visiting! Bus tours aren t running at the moment due to COVID and they take you behind the gates of NASA to the launch pads etc - there s more than enough to do and see to easily fill up a second day of visiting so getting one of the passes is a good option (basically anything more than 1 visit and the pass is best bet)! And live rocket launches can be seen on certain days (check out the website for schedules)! Highly recommend this to anyone!

Would be great to have more options to see a launch a bit closer.

Definitely need to make plenty of time to spend there for the bus tour. There are a few places to spend time including an outdoor, shaded kids play area. The exhibits were cool but for all the money we spent to get in, there should have been seating. You stand during almost every presentation.

The pay for bus tour was great! Everything was informative. Kid friendly and generally fun!

Such a fantastic experience for my family. My children are 14,12, and 7 year old twins. We dined with a astronaut. The astronaut was Dr. Anna Fisher. I think the experience was life changing for my children. Also the buffet was utterly amazing. That was worth the price of admission alone. The displays and attractions were very interactive, entertaining and dare I say educational. I wouldn't consider my kids STEM focused ( nerdy ) but they were fully entertained and inspired. Also most importantly, most of the things to do are inside and air conditioned. In contrast we left Disney World exhausted, hot, miserable and broke. It's funny, when we left Kennedy everybody leaving was smiling and happy. In contrast, when we were leaving Disney it looked like a refugee migration crisis scene. I'm usually a pretty senical, take things with a grain of salt kind of a guy, but it's hard to not get inspired by this place.
