One Small Step for Mankind

Your heroes of space experience begins at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex with a guided tour of the Space Shuttle Atlantis® by a former astronaut. During your tour, you can stand nose-to-nose with this 151,315-pound spacecraft, a view only previously afforded to astronauts in space. Following your guided tour, you’ll be escorted to Heroes and Legends, featuring the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame®, for a private dinner reception. While enjoying a full premium bar and gourmet cuisine prepared by an award-winning chef, you’ll be able to explore interactive exhibits and see real artifacts from the program. At the conclusion of your evening, you’ll depart in awe of mankind’s most impressive accomplishments.

Transportation will be provided to and from Cape Canaveral Beach Resort and our experience. Please note some walking will be involved with this event (4 on a scale of 1–10*), which may include steps.
