Kennedy Space Center Guided Tours

In addition to the KSC Tour, Kennedy Space Center offers guided tours for those with special interests - and allow you to take a deeper look at specific aspects of Kennedy Space Center and the Cape Canaveral Air Force Base. Both of these guided tours sell out daily. Reservations are strongly recommended. Reserve online or call (866) 737-5235.

Note: Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral are working space-launch facilities. All tours may be altered or closed due to operational requirements. Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable. Prices subject to change and do not include tax. If you are planning on purchasing both guided tours, the KSC Up-Close tour and the Cape Canaveral: Then & Now tour, we strongly suggest to upgrade to an annual pass and plan for a two-day visit. Due to time constraints, both of these Kennedy Space Center guided tours cannot be taken in the same day.

KSC Up-Close Tour

Tour Price: $25 adult/$19 per child (ages 3-11) plus tax, in addition to admission

Offered for a limited time, the KSC Up-Close Tour features an inside view of the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). Guests will be able to walk along the Transfer Aisle, used to move elements of rockets among the building's four High Bays, and possibly see a space shuttle orbiter being prepared for display in its new home. Other sites on the KSC Up-Close Tour include the NASA Causeway, A/B Camera Stop and the amazing Apollo/Saturn V Center. 

The VAB component of the KSC Up-Close Tour is hoped to be offered at least through Summer of 2012. Details will be posted as they come available.
