If you've never been here, you need to visit! Entertaining for kids and adults alike. Great for leaning about our space program!

This is one of the best educational experiences you can get while having loads of fun. Great prices compared to other Florida attractions. Best bang for you buck at the Kennedy Space Center. Plan at least a full day and you probably still won't be able to fit everything in. I try to visit at least once a year as the displays and events change frequently to give you a different experience every time!

I haven't been to the Kennedy Space Center in about 20 years. I thought the Atlas V rocket was stunning back then, but have to say with the addition of the Atlantis Space Shuttle the center is even more spectacular. Being able to view an actual spaceship up close and understand what it took to accomplish these missions is a great experience if you have the scientific or adventurous bent. The tickets are about $55 each and you may not be able to see the whole thing in a day. Plan to get there early.
