Energetic & Fun
Five stars for Oscar Noriyuki and the Gray Line VIP tour! Oscar was an absolute rockstar—fun, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about NASA history and current missions. The small‑group format made everything smooth and personal, and Oscar made sure we never missed a single highlight. If you want the BEST Kennedy Space Center experience, this is the tour to book.

Good day
The whole day was brilliant from pick up to drop off. Driver was on time and provided some interesting commentary during our trip to the centre. The centre itself was excellent and not too busy. We enjoyed our day very much.

Top Class Day at KSC!
Absolute great day at Kennedy Space Center, top class service with Brad at GrayLine. Very knowledgeable about the Center, gave us a good plan for the day as well sharing some stories from his life! Couldn’t recommend it all more! All admission free included in the tour price so no extras on top on arrival. Plenty of time at the Space Center to explore all the different areas. Would recommend coming on a weekday if you can as it’s much quieter, makes for a lovely atmosphere as you’re walking round.
Operator response
We greatly appreciate your kind words about your visit, Tom! It sounds like Brad made a fantastic impact, and we're delighted that you enjoyed the quieter atmosphere on a weekday. Thank you for sharing your recommendations, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
