KSC - What to see & what not to see?

[clairelouise]

Hi, Just looked at there website and there seems to be alot to do :confused2

I get bored quiet quickly and like to be on the go i am only hoping to stay here max 4 hours (DH wants to go) i dont do bus tours i see they are quiet long on the website, and it seems well spread out so if you can suggest what i can give a miss and what i must see that would be great.

Thanks

We did the Now and then tour which i was expecting to be really boring, but it was actually fantastic.

They do take you on a coach, but it covers the history of the launches, you go out to the airbase and get to meet, hear from and talk to one of the original test pilots.

You go out to the launch pad where one of the shuttles tragically burned, and pay your respects.

Theres loads included and its fascinating.

I will be taking my nephews there this October, as it is well worth doing.

Love,
Gill xx

We went last summer - I thought I would be bored. But I wasn't. It was an absolutely fantastic day - and it was a full day. We didn't do any tours (we have one planned for this year) - but there was so much to see and do, that we wouldn't have found the time to fit one in anyway! We've booked one for this year as we can miss a bit out seeing as we only saw it a year ago!

Like you - I don't do rockets!!!!!! Having said that, the the last time we went (& i've been many times) was fab. Check out the Tuna n Onion sarnies (if they still do them) they're worth a visit on their own lol :omg: :grin: :omg: :grin:

So is there enough to do at the Visitor complex to last a day without doing the Tours ??
