how far is kennedy space center from disney

[portsmouth35]

Is there bus transportation from disney to Kennedy Space Center. I am thinking this would be a nice side trip but we really don't want to rent a car. Just wondering if anyone knew if there was any type of shuttle we could take to arrive.

It is about 1 hour away east on the 528 expressway. They offer tours out of Orlando through grayline tours. www.grayline.com

We have always enjoyed an excursion to Kennedy Space Center. We rent a car, however.

We had never been and finally ventured over there on Tuesday of this week. It was more fun than I expected. We were there from 9AM until we left the Astronaut Hall of Fame around 6PM and we had breezed through some of the displays and skipped a few of the shorter films. Our tickets allowed us to go back a second day, and planning two mornings there might have been a better idea than one long day. We're hoping to return again next time we're back in the area.

Renting a car is usually dirt cheap in Orlando and well worth it for the convenience. The drive to the Space Ctr is very simple. They have excellent directions on their website.

I'd rent a car for the day. It's dirt cheep in Florida (see mousesavers.com for discount codes and info on rental agencies that have offices near whereever you are staying).

Parking is free at KSC and it couldn't be easier to get to. Right at an hour's drive but check launch schedules before you go. It can be 3+ hours in launch traffic.

Thanks for the tip!!
Glad I asked...We decided to rent a car for the week, but not sure if its overkill...as I think we only need it for this day. We are using alamo....
