Led by a trained space expert, the KSC Up-Close Explore Tour includes views of launch pads, the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) and the Shuttle Landing Facility.
The tour stops in between the Kennedy Space Center launch pads for a close-up photo opportunity, in front of the VAB, and on the NASA Causeway where guests are awarded a panoramic view of rocket launch sites at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
Along the way, visitors see other space program icons including the countdown clock at NASA’s Press Site, a mobile launcher used to move Apollo moon rockets and space shuttles to the launch pad, and the Operations and Checkout building, the departure point for astronauts traveling to the launch pad on the day of their mission.
All of this, as well as Kennedy Space Center’s amazing ecosystem full of wildlife, make the KSC Up-Close Explore Tour the perfect way to experience the history and exciting future of space exploration.
This bus tour concludes at the Apollo/Saturn V Center.
