Short of becoming an astronaut, there’s no better way to get a glimpse of Kennedy Space Center than on the Kennedy Space Center Tour (KSC Tour). Take a NASA bus for a drive-by view of the space shuttle launch pad and then experience the historic Apollo 8 launch and marvel at a massive 363-foot-long Saturn V moon rocket at the Apollo/Saturn V Center.
General Bus Tour
The KSC General Bus Tour is included with admission and departs every 15 minutes from the Visitor Complex.
The tour is self-guided, allowing guests to get off the bus and spend as much time as desired at each location.
Tour the 60-foot-tall Launch Complex (LC) 39 Observation Gantry on Fridays and Saturdays and get a breathtaking 360-degree view of the two giant space shuttle Launch Pads, 39A and 39B. In addition to the bird’s-eye view of our launch pad structures, the panorama also includes the Launch Control Center, the well-traveled crawlerway and the massive Vehicle Assembly Building. Our tours of the LC 39 Observation Gantry also include behind-the-scenes briefings on what it took to launch and land every NASA Space Shuttle.
Guided Tours
Kennedy Space Center guided tours are also available for those with special interests - and allow you to take a deeper look at specific aspects of Kennedy Space Center.
