Brilliant day at Kennedy Space Centre and Airboat ride! - We loved the tour from start to finish! Mauricio was delightful- such a character and so fun. He was informative and his insight helped us experience the majority of Kennedy Space Centre in around 5 hours. A highlight for us was looking at the actual rockets used in launches and paying our respects in the remembrance exhibits. The airboat ride was such a great experience. Although we didn’t see many gators, we saw cows, birds and smaller alligators. The experience was one of a kind and we loved it! Although it’s a long day with an early start, it was well worth the cost and we’re glad we got to experience it!

What a day! 🚀🐊🐬🌈 - Bob the tour guide and John the driver went above and beyond with efficiency and effort to make sure we got to the space center with a few minutes to go before a rocket launch so we could all see it. We were very lucky as it was their 4th attempt at launch! We will forever be grateful for how they efficiently loaded the coach and helped us to get there in time safely so we could all film it! We also loved all the print outs and information provided by Bob. The Space Center is a must do! Amazing place! Also we really loved the airboat alligator ride. The Twister company were so good at helping us find alligators, respecting them and providing us with information. And I felt safe letting my 8 year old do this boat trip too. The coach ride back was topped off with seeing a dolphin and a double rainbow! Luck was on our side but everything was made better by everyone involved with today. Thank you so much! What a day!

Kevin made our day run seamlessly. - This trip was amazing from start to finish. Kevin picked us up promptly and communicated exactly what would happen throughout the day. It started with the airboat ride along the river to see the wildlife and it did not disappoint - we saw countless alligators, turtles, cattle, birds and even alligator hatchlings! As this boat ride was in the morning, we avoided any inclement weather in the afternoon and it was a lovely start to the day. After this, Kevin took us on to Kennedy Space Centre. Along the way, he shared his extensive knowledge of the attraction and advised us of the best things to do whilst there. He was also incredibly knowledgeable about Florida and its history which was great to learn, coming from the UK. He was full of so many facts and interesting tidbits - I don’t know how he remembered it all! We learned so much! The space centre did not disappoint - from the rocket garden to the launch simulator and play area - our day was jam packed. We even saw a successful rocket launch which was amazing and a definite once-in-a-lifetime experience. Kevin picked us up promptly, as promised, and entertained us with more facts and history along the drive home which, again, was a great addition to the trip. We had a fantastic day and would definitely book through Gray Line again. The best value for money and great customer service. Thanks to Kevin for facilitating a brilliant day!

Space and airboat - Space Center could take two days. To sit at launch pad 39A and see the real stuff, recordings and equipment was fascinating. The airboat was noisy but we saw a lot of gators, herons, egrets

Nasa is something to see - Ricky was a great guide, he prepared us the information of a launch that day to see it. He gave us tips to visit the center and avoid crowding. It was great. The tour included an airboat ride that was eventually cancelled due to weather conditions. Too bad, because we took him for that claim. The agency told us he'd give us a payoff.

Nasa amazing.. - NASA was amazing and the tour guide was invaluable and informative. But ultimately we paid for an airboat ride to see alligators. The captain of the boat tried his best to find them but he said that the gaters were not in the shallows now and they were not allowed to take the boats into deeper water. He said the tour companies should not see trips to see them!!! Disappointed

Great tour, very pricey though - Both Kennedy Space Centre and the Gator Tour were fantastic. The only part Greyline play is the transportation to each venue. Very pricey if you think of it like that.
