We had family come over from Ireland, they have never been. I had been a long time a, we all enjoyed ourselves. I bought the tickets on your site, very easy. Got to the gate excepted the tickets with no problems. We visited all the plned tours, had lunch which was better than expected, verify and different selections were available. Would recommend any who has been or hasn't been to come and visit. It's worth th visit. Thanks for making our trip to the Center so easy and memorable.

For someone from outside US, the steps and process was very detailed and yet simple to undersand follow. It gave me options for planned bg my trip, and allowed me to choose my preferred options. It also pointed me to discounts ( eg I was able to take advantage of adult ticket at the price of child offer). After booking my tickets, the app helped me to find the location, and also helped me to understand the various exhibits and displays, giving brief descriptions.

Cannot believe I lived here 14 years and waited until I had guests to go here! Wow, what a treat, Kennedy Space Center is an amazing complex, set up nicely for a smooth flow through the exhibits. Get on the bus tour early, that take a bit and you don't want to miss anything on that tour. IMAX amazing! All the exhibits are relevant and take you into space. Don't miss it!

We arrived around 8:45, parked, walked through securit, and at 9 the American flag came up on the screen playing our National anthem. Our day at the Kennedy Space Center has started. We took some pictures, then headed to the bus tour . The day was beautiful weather wise and the Center was amazing! First time visit but not our last, so much to see.

We bought tickets on the Headout app for the Kennedy Space Center in Port Canaveral, FL the day before we went. They were slightly better priced than any other web site and getting the tickets through the app was a breeze. We did not run into any issues using Headout and the Space Center was amazing. Thanks Headout!

The Kennedy Space Center has too much to do in 1 day. I'm 47 yrs old and this was my first time visiting the Space Center, even though I've been coming to Florida most of my life to visit family. I will definitely be back and get a multi day pass to finish seeing all the Space Center has to offer.
