Itinerary:

Attractions at Kennedy Space Center include:

Kennedy Space Center Tour - Board a fleet of 44 air-conditioned buses and observe first hand the Apollo/Saturn V Center, the LC-39 Observation Gantry and the International Space Station Center. Guided bus tours depart each day from 9:30am (seasonal), and run continuously throughout the day. Also on tour is the acclaimed Apollo Saturn V Center, where guests can relive the days of America's moon landings by experiencing a simulated launch from mission control, viewing a real 363 foot long Saturn V moon rocket and taking a front row seat as man takes his first steps on the moon.

Astronaut Encounter - Guests to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex will have the opportunity to meet a real astronaut every day. This innovative program consists of question and answer sessions, mission briefings, video footage space artifacts and personal stories of space travel as told by those who have lived it.

International Space Station Center - Walk through full-scale mock-ups of space station modules and visit the viewing gallery, where you can see actual space station components being readied for flight.

IMAX Theatres - Two different larger than life films take you on an awe-inspiring journey into space on screens over five stories tall. Dramatic footage, photographed in space by the astronauts, give each of the IMAX films an exciting 'you are there' feeling.

U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame - Located at the entrance of Kennedy Space Center, the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame houses the world's largest collection of astronaut memorabilia, exhibits and tributes. Realistic training simulators allow you to feel the pressure of four times the force of gravity, ride a river across Mars, and land a Space Shuttle.

Lunch with an Astronaut - This meal opportunity, currently offered every day of the week at 12:15pm at the Visitor Complex, includes a banquet style lunch with a speaking appearance by a real Astronaut. The popular program incorporates a fun highlight video of Astronauts living and working in space, a brief oration on his/her thoughts and individual time with each family for Q&A and photos. The meal is topped off by a wonderful selection of desserts. Guests even receive an autographed souvenir to take home. Program runs approximately 1 hour. (Reservations required)

Discover KSC: Today and Tomorrow Tour - Led by a trained space expert, this tour gives visitors an insider's view of the space program from launch preparation to lift-off. The tour includes up-close views of Space Shuttle launch pads, the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), massive Crawler-Transporters, which move the Shuttle from the VAB to its launch pad, and Shuttle landing runway. Also included is a very special stop at the International Space Station Processing Facility where visitors view actual Space Station modules being readied for launch. (Reservations required)
