The countdown has started for the final days of the Space Shuttle. NASA expects to retire these amazing space craft within the next few years, meaning that the opportunity to witness a shuttle launch really is a once in a lifetime experience which should be grasped with both hands. This superb tour gives you the chance to view the launch from the closest public site on NASA property - you simply cannot get a better view without breaking into Mission Control!
The Visitor Complex will host a limited number of guests only so we recommend booking as early as possible to avoid disappointment. The scenic area by the historic Rocket Garden will be given a fun festival makeover featuring Astronaut Appearances and Live audio and video feeds of the latest launch news. You will have a beautiful view of the Space Shuttle immediately after it has cleared the tree line following initial lift-off.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the unpredictable nature of a space launch, dates cannot be guaranteed and your booking will be subject to the following conditions:
No refunds are offered for cancellations or reschedules within 72 hours of the tour.
If the launch time moves or is delayed 72 hours prior to the scheduled launch: Your tickets can be rescheduled for the new launch date or can be cancelled.
If the launch cancels after this time there can be no refunds or tours rescheduled without charges. Your tour to KCS will still take place on the original launch date for you to view the full complex. The LTT (launch portion of the ticket) can be used for the next scheduled launch attempt or can be exchanged for merchandise or food within the KSC visitor complex. Should you wish to reschedule the day this can be done for $30 per person, paid locally in resort.
If the launch cancels on the actual day:
If you have an LTT ticket and have boarded a bus to the LTT viewing site the ticket has been used
If you have not boarded a bus the ticket can be exchanged at KSC for the next launch attempt.
Admission Badges will be valid for limited admission for subsequent launch attempts within the launch window (this is usually a couple of weeks, but check locally for details). Should you wish to return to KSC by the bus on a secondary day this can be arranged for $30 per person.
If the launch moves outside that window the ticket is not valid.
It is your responsibility to check up with the launch dates – simply call Gray Line Orlando / Gator Tours or watch the news!
