What you can expect

Your tour begins with comfortable and convenient transport from an Orlando, Kissimmee, Disney of Lake Buena meeting point from where you will be on your way to explore the iconic grounds of the Kennedy Space Centre. The tour guide will give you lots of information to ensure you make the most of your visit. Upon arrival head to the Atlantis—the world’s most comprehensive attraction devoted to the space shuttle. Next, test your hand-eye coordination as you conduct a virtual EVA (extravehicular activity). Take the opportunity to dock to the ISS, extract cargo from the payload bay, create sonic booms, and glide to a landing on the Re-Entry Slide.

During the day you will get to enjoy the new 'Chat with an Astronaut Experience'. This 50 minute is sure to be the highlight of your visit. Enjoy some light refreshments and a alcoholic drink if you choose, whilst you listen to the astronaut of the day. Within a small group setting the astronaut will answer questions from the guests, so have your question ready! Be sure to snap a couple photos with the astronaut to remember the experience forever. You will also receive a signed Lithograph picture and a small gift.

As you explore the Visitor Centre, feel free to peruse the amazing exhibits at you leisure. Take a break and sit for a one-of-a-kind IMAX film to experience the feeling of walking on the moon or launching up into space.
