Creator's Key Takeaways

We arrived late in the afternoon and ended up missing all the bus tours. Plus, several exhibits we were really excited about were already closed.

Getting back to the ship was a little bit of a nightmare. Our lift was so expensive.

Kennedy Space Center is one of those places that sticks with you long after you leave.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Arrive early at Kennedy Space Center to maximize your visit.
✓Check the daily schedule as soon as you arrive to plan around shows and presentations.
✓Wear comfortable shoes because you will be walking a lot.
✓If visiting from out of town, consider pairing with other Florida attractions to save money.

Our Port Canaveral cruise day on MSC Meraviglia turned into a full-on space adventure when we spent the day exploring Kennedy Space Center. From the Rocket Garden to the Space Shuttle Atlantis, interactive simulators, and the future of space travel at The Gateway, we packed in as much as we could before heading back to the ship. Once onboard, we caught a quick show before dinner at Butcher’s Cut steakhouse—a specialty dining experience that came with some unexpected surprises. If you’ve ever wondered what Butcher’s Cut is really like—especially with a dining package—you’ll want to watch until the end. 📌 In This Video: Visiting Kennedy Space Center from Port Canaveral Highlights from the Rocket Garden, Atlantis, and The Gateway Tips for visiting Kennedy Space Center on a cruise stop Butcher’s Cut steakhouse dining review & unexpected surprises MSC Meraviglia cruise vlog 💬 Have you visited Kennedy Space Center or dined at Butcher’s Cut?
