CANCELLATION POLICY

The bus was nice, guides were nice but the company apparently mis counted and didn’t have room for all passengers being picked up so it was a bit chaotic and our family ended up getting the last seats on the bus and my family was separated causing my 10 year olds some anxiety and discomfort having to sit next to strangers. It was also a very long day, too long for us given that we were tired from getting in late the night before. It was convenient in that we had a relaxing drive to the space center. They just need to improve the experience regarding the pickup and handling of tickets. Also on the drive back we were last to be dropped off so it seemed like a really long drive. It would have been a nice gesture to offer bottles of water for the long drive.

I needed transport to Kennedy Space Center from Universal, having already bought my admission tickets in the UK before we travelled, booked Gray Line transport only.
It was easy to book online, and could select my pick up point from a few options, I chose pick up point at Icon Park at 8am. The bus was 10 mins late, but only as the bus was picking up other passengers and we were the last pick up point. Arrived at Kennedy Space Center at 9am for opening, and bus left at 5pm as the Center closed.
Greg Dersett was the tour guide who provided us with plenty of useful and interesting facts about the Space Center before we arrived. Recommended how to plan your day to get the most from the visit.
Greg was very friendly and helpful, also shared a few jokes and magic tricks. Very good reliable bus service and I would not hesitate to book another tour with Gray Line.

Very reliable bus ride to the Kennedy Space Center. Angelina planned our day for us; it was an efficient plan allowing us to visit everything at the Center. She also informed us on a few sights on the way there. Angelina went out of her way to arrange a ride for us, and we thank you enough for that.
