Calling all space enthusiasts!
This deluxe touring experience at Kennedy Space Center will provide you with the ultimate space adventure. Upon arrival you will get a special meet and greet welcome from a NASA astronaut! This welcome presentation occurs on Wednesday and Saturdays (based in Astronaut availability).
Next it's into the world’s most comprehensive attraction devoted to the Space Shuttle Atlantis. Get up close to this priceless spacecraft as only astronauts have seen it before. There are more than 60 interactive, touch-screen experiences and high-tech simulators that allow you to “be the astronaut”.
Prior to lunch you can take a "ride" on the Shuttle Launch Experience or watch the IMAX movie.
Next it's time to feast on a buffet lunch and watch a presentation from an astronaut. Then you'll have the opportunity for photos and autographs.
After lunch you'll then take the DISCOVER KSC bus tour. This 2-hour tour within Kennedy Space Center takes you near the former shuttle launch pads. Based on availability, the bus tour stops in the Vehicle Assembly Buildings where you can take photos outside. This tour shows you areas not seen on the regular bus tours. You'll end your tour at the Saturn V Center where you can walk under the Saturn V rocket and touch a piece of moon rock.
This tour doesn't allow much free time in the space center as it is pretty structured day. You don't get chance to see all the visitor center exhibitions however you would get to see some of the best of the NASA facilities and enjoy the lunch with the astronaut presentation.
The tickets included in this package are called the 'Space Pass'. This ticket allows guests to have a second time admission to the visitor center complex within 7 days from the first day. Please note Gray Line transportation is only included one time.
Duration: 8 hours

Other than purchasing our tickets ,Viator did nothing.Bus arrived a half hour late, our guide after getting thru security talked only to the front of the crowd and then left us . I would not recommend this service to anyone for the price charged . I will buy my own tickets from now on.
The BEST experience I had in Florida. Met an Astronaut and it was amazing to hear its experiences. I will NEVER forget this visit A must do.

Very interesting. There was so much to see and not enough time. It could easily be a 2 day tour. The driver was friendly and had plenty of information. The astronaut at lunch was great. And best of all the guide on the tour of the launch pads and VAB was tremendously knowledgeable.
