Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex Reviews

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.

Must see to appreciate fully what we have gained as a nation. They're looking for the future's astronaut and toward the next big goals.

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!

A must for anyone interested in space. Lots of exhibits and experiences, very informative. Learn about the history of the space program as well as the future.

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.

A bit steep, price-wise. Can't get away from those horrible Florida theme park lines. Actual flown shuttle in display kinda made it all worth it though.

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.

Get in touch with your inner nerd. Great place to relive a time when America led the world and everyone looked up to us.

i had wonderful times with my friends during this trip!

Great museum of space flight history. It's an all day place. Lots to see!

Definitely a place to come and check out. Parking a is a bit werid lol

Unfortunately due to covid (as of Oct 2020) many of the exhibits, attractions and interactions are closed which really limits what can be done and makes for a less enjoyable experience. The whole center actually felt kind of like a ghost town and it was hard to tell if buildings were even open or not, and those that were open seemed closed because there was maybe a person or two at most. What's mainly still available are the movies and an Atlantis simulation, outside of that it's a museum of a lot of things you can't touch or interact with, kind of like a field trip back in grade school. Despite all this the center is still charging full admission but is giving a complimentry ticket to come back in 2021 (blackout dates apparently apply). Suposse if I want the good stuff I gotta pay for the extra packages and get the "big kid" experience, maybe next time...?

Wonderful exhibits, Awesome Rocket Launch Location but very poor direction and signage from parking, to lines and where to go. Plan to stand a lot. We went for a 2:48 am launch. There were two ticket packages available and we chose the one for $195 PP. We were instructed to arrive at 10:30 pm and to bring bug spray and chairs. There was a huge line upon arrival so people had to have arrived way prior to the 10:30 time. There was no one in the parking lot instructing you where to go so you have to wander around lugging your chairs around to try and find someone who can help. The line probably had well over 500 people in it and we thought that there had to be a shorter line for the $200 tickets. No, they have one line for everyone, it doesn't matter what you pay. We stood in line for about 90 minutes. Thankfully it was a beautiful evening. After we got through security you would think that someone would be there to tell you where to go, NOPE. Luckily we found a bathroom nearby and a place to sit for a few minuets. We walked around for a bit longer and we found an employee who told us where to go stand in line to get onto a bus. That line was only about 20 minutes. The bus driver was very informative about things we would see along the way. After about a 15 minute bus ride we were dropped off and we all stood in front of this large building. After about 10 minutes of standing around with no one telling us what was going on I went looking for another employee to find out why we were all standing around yet again. He instructed me that we were waiting to go inside the building to watch a film and then eat. I'm not sure why none of the 3 employees standing nearby the crowd didn't inform the group about what was going on. I was a bit surprised that no one else was wondering why the heck we were all standing there. The doors finally opened and we entered a big room and a movie started. No idea how long the movie is, no place to sit, standing only. A good film about the history of the space program but it would have been nice to sit. That film ends and you enter another room that looks like a control room. Again, no one says anything you're just expected to figure out that you come in and sit down and watch another film. Once that ends you exit into an enormous room (there is an actual rocket suspended from the ceiling) VERY COOL!!! Not knowing what is going on because no one has said anything, we wander around with our chairs in hand. We identified several tables that looked like they had food at one time. About half way into the building we found tables set up that actually had food. We didn't know if all the tables had the same food so we had to wander around to figure it out. The napkins and plastic ware were in totally different areas. They didn't have enough places to sit and eat. I think because there was so much standing prior to this that there were a lot of people sitting in the place were you were supposed to eat and they didn't get up once they were done eating. There was no one cleaning the tables so in order to get a seat you had to clean up the mess from the prior person who was sitting there. GROSS! There was no one telling you where to go set up to watch the launch. We walked where we thought we should go. We asked an employee if this is where we should set up and they told us that this area was already full so we should go to a different area. Basically where we just came from. We sat up our chairs on the lawn and it was a great spot for the launch. I'm glad that we did this but I wish there were more employees instructing people where to go for each part of the experience. Where to park, where to go after you park, where to stand in line, where to go once you get through security, where to catch the bus, what the program is once you get off the bus. We had a pass to go back the next day but we were so turned off by the experience that we didn't go back. It looks like its a very educational place with good exhibits. Perhaps during the day its more organized.

One needs to set aside at least one full day to take in all the history being presented. Plenty of hands on education for the entire family.

A must see. We were disappointed with the closed imax and the shuttle simulator bugged in action, we had to go out after a minute. Also especially not having lunch there is very expensive and the food is horrible but really degeu ... prefer a picnic if you can there are places for picnic. Advice for the visit: Plan to arrive at 9:00 am sharp and take the bus tour first. You will not be able to do everything in one day but the little you will do will already be a lot! It is a place to do with children of course and for all ages. You will go out with lots of stars in your eyes;)

Went there due to work but took time to visit the great facility

Great experience! Spent about 8 hours there, didnt have time to do everything!

This place is amazing! It was so cool getting to see all of the astronauts who have paved the way for others. To see the history of all the technology, and past rockets that were used made it that much more interesting. The best part was definitely the shuttle launch simulator. It is so realistic you feel like you were actually there. I didn't get the chance to go on a bus tour to the different launch sites at the Air Force Base. But I will definitely be back. O would recommend anyone in the area to go visit.

Reasonable fees. Varied sensory activities. Traffic flow well managed. Something for all ages. Education Al inspite of oneself.

Too much time in lines. I brought tickets online so I wouldn't have to wait in line, only to be told to wait in line to get a paper ticket. Then you have to wait in line to get in the gate so you can wait nearly 2 hours in line to get on the bus to see some of the attractions. Not worth the cost or the time you invest.

So much to see n so educational. Well worth the money

Great for anyone remotely interested in NASA or Space travel. The guided bus ride was a reasonable length, providing a lot of information about the centre. The gift shop also provides a range of clothing and souvenirs to take home.

I loved this walk. All people must visit this museum full of history. Thank you

The whole center makes a great impression - it's great to spend all day sightseeing but it's worth it.

$600 for 7 people. 1 hr line to get through security. 1/2 open. Schedule is not updated. Nothing to do with COVID just poor management. Waste of time and money.

Great - no comparison. It makes you dream that the impossible is possible.

An awesome local attraction and a one-of-a-kind experience.

Fantastic...visited 50 years ago in elementary field trip...Saturn V display is unbelievable...space shuttle and rocket garden just so cool...

An impressive place
Well explained
Ideal to spend the day

It's a little too pricey to go to the museum but it was okay I from the outside. We couldn't go farther in. There's not much to see because there's a lot of restrictions.

I love it, it hurts that they have reduced hours due to the pandemic and then not everything is open

I can't say enough good things about it. A wonderful day.

It is much richer and better decorated than expected. 10 minutes by bus, you can see Apollo / Saturn V. The bus line is very long all day long. You have to go to the opening time so you can go around diligently to see all the videos. It's a pity that I went around 11 am and missed a few. It was about 2:40 pm in a bus line and I went to Apollo by bus at about 3:40. The Atlantis Space Shuttle building in the main center is also recommended. The intro presentation is amazing.

This was a fantastic experience all around! I will definitely come back for another visit in the future!

I can only speak to my experience during covid 19 but we didn't pay for anything. You could do this in one full day or two full days depending on how much you would like to read and learn. Not as fun of a destination as Disney it's certainly more educational. The only criticism I might have is that there are a lot of movies and videos which you could probably see at home. The new IMAX asteroid movie was fantastic and I highly recommend it.

Rain all day and when we first artvie and pick up our tickets the casher was very rude

Very informative and interesting to visit if you happen to be around and are willing to pay 60 dollars for a lot of movie introductions and stay in line for 2 hours for a bus ride.

Always a fantastic experience. Very expensive, but what isn t in Orlando. That being said it s totally worth it. The new Atlantis exhibit is incredible. Be aware that if this is your first time that most major exhibits have theater presentations before you reach the physical exhibits. And again, it s Florida so be ready hot and sweaty while I m the rocket garden. Most exhibits have air conditioning.

I've been here 5+ times and learn something new every time!
