Our visit to the Kennedy Space Center was truly incredible. The center itself offered an overwhelming amount to explore and experience; a single day hardly felt sufficient to cover everything in detail. Regarding the VIP Experience, it fell short of expectations. Our driver, who also served as our tour guide, dropped us off at the Kennedy Center but did not accompany us inside. While he provided entry tickets, snacks, and a meal voucher, his communication skills were hindered by poor English, making it difficult for passengers in the back of the bus to hear his instructions on navigating the center. Additionally, on the return journey, heavy traffic compounded the issue as our driver frequently turned away from the road to converse with another passenger, raising concerns about safety. Despite these drawbacks, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Kennedy Center. However, considering the challenges with transportation and the driver's performance, we concluded that driving ourselves would have been a more economical and straightforward choice for our group.

Great place to hear about the nasa story and future. Park is well kept up and clean Negative is old bathrooms and food is poor quality. Condiment bar had several food safety violations like dirty utensils inside condiments and was obviously not being maintained.

Our driver/guide was extremely knowledgeable and polite. The bus was clean and comfortable. Great service and experience.

Your tour begins with a convenient hotel pickup and breakfast on the go. Head to the East Coast for a remarkable day exploring the Kennedy Space Center, one of Florida's most renowned attractions. At the visitor complex, you'll undergo orientation and visit highlights like the Heroes and Legends, the Atlantis exhibit (including the Shuttle Launch Simulator), and even make a stop at the IMAX theater.

At noon, grab some lunch and ride the KSC behind-the-scenes tour for a comprehensive look at the center's main highlights. Make use of your $15 voucher for dining or merchandise (the choice is yours). After riding past the launch control room, the Saturn V rocket, the shuttle launch pads, and more, you'll head to the largest space shop to pick up some souvenirs and displays. In the end, your driver/guide will take you back to Orlando with snacks for the ride back home.
