5.00FANTASTIC time! Great for families. We have a very rambunctious toddler and there was so much to do. The live show was awesome. Would love to come back!
Fascinating

5.00The tour and attractions are updated to focus on new projects, like the Artemis program, while showing how much has been accomplished since JFK's speech in 1962. It is time well spent. Plan a very full day.
Very good experience, would absolutely do again!

5.00It was an awesome experience. Really need two days to do everything. Got to meet and take a picture with an astronaut. Brought back so many memories growing up with the space program, and excited for the future.

5.00exciting. On the other hand, it is better to buy tickets at the entrance, it is more convenient and without waiting, so by Viator we have a voucher that you have to exchange at a counter and there was waiting
Overpriced and boring

5.00My partner has always wanted to see the Kennedy Space Center and he was not disappointed and neither was I. We went in January and it was pretty quiet so no long waits in lines. The KSC has done an amazing job in making this interactive, surprising and inspieing worth every penny. Astronauts are heros!!
Nice trip but crowded!

4.00Don’t go on Friday’s. Numerous school groups make it overly crowded! Many attractions were closed for bookings because of the crowds.
Overpriced and Underwhelming

2.00Bottom line: Skip it and go to the Space Force Museum instead. We arrived later in the afternoon and only then learned that the buses to the launch pad stop running at 3:00 PM, even though the park stays open until 5:00. That information was not shared until after we had already spent $179.78 for two tickets, which was frustrating. What we were able to see amounted to a few rover replicas and a large number of screen-based, video game style exhibits. Most of that content is easily available online for free. We chose not to wait nearly two hours to see the space shuttle. One of the most disappointing aspects was the lack of staff. When we had questions, the place felt like a ghost town. The only employees we ever saw were security personnel and cashiers. There were no museum hosts, docents, or knowledgeable staff available to explain exhibits or answer questions, which made the experience feel hollow and impersonal. The grounds themselves are beautiful, but the experience feels thin. It comes across as an amusement park that focused heavily on restaurants, gift shops, and upsells, while forgetting to include enough actual attractions. My recommendation is to save your money and visit the Space Force Museum instead. Admission is free, and you will see far more authentic and meaningful space history
Wonderful experience - glad we had a two-day pass!!

5.00Go earlier than the opening hour, the lines are Long to get parking, long to get verified tickets, long to get inside the grounds, and long to get onto the tour busses. But much faster than “the mouse’s parks” lines and worth it!
