Andrew321, Kentucky Wildlife Tour, March 2019

It was really a great day. So glad I finally went out to the refuge and it was really nice to have guides to point out interesting wildlife, landscape and history. I was surprised at how much time had passed from start to finish, it went by quickly and there was always something of interest happening. Lunch was good and they had everything you could want provided. Would definitely recommend for locals and tourists.

Had a wonderful time fun and educational at the same time. Kept everyone involved the whole time. Would recommend great value and lunch and snacks are included. A MUST SEE
Christina G, St. Cloud FL Wildlife Tour, August 2018

Loved seeing the manatees! A great experience, but my favorite part was the manatees. have never seen so many all at once and so close to the viewing platform. The van has easy access and is extremely comfortable. I was impressed by how well the binoculars worked provided by Wildlife Tours at each seat. The commentary along the way was informative and helpful, both from a nature and an historical perspective. Snacks and lunch break along the way were most appreciated.

Thought our guides, Shelley & Gary, were fabulous - great having people who have history here. Came for the lighthouse - but loved launch site visits.

Wow, I never knew this was here before! This is a really great place to visit. I'm so glad we went with the tour, the van was comfortable and we didn't have to worry about driving. It was a wonderful time of fellowship and we had a great lunch. Seeing the manatees at the observation deck was exciting. Seeing alligator holes was very interesting.

Lighthouse & Spaceflight Tour

We are hopeful Lighthouse & Spaceflight tours will resume in August. Now accepting Reservations.

Cape Canaveral Lighthouse & Spaceflight Tours transports you on a journey through the evolution of exploration as we visit the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse that guided the first explorers around the Florida coast, to the launch pads that propelled our ships into orbit, and look toward the new frontier of planetary travel.

Canaveral Tours provides a 4 hour tour of the Canaveral Lighthouse and Canaveral Air Force Station. History of the Cape from early settlers to current space programs is provided on your tour. The tour takes you first to the lighthouse, where you are provided a guided tour by a Lighthouse Foundation guide. Then, continues on a ride through the Air Force Station to see launch complexes from the beginning of spaceflight programs to current commercial ventures. Stops at the historic launch pad facilities of the Mercury and Apollo missions allow you to walk where the astronauts launched into space.
