Awesome day for a Delta Launch. And even better since it was scheduled during our Premier Lighthouse & Spaceflight tour. We watched the final Delta launch under the shadow of the last Delta on display at the Space Force Missile Museum!

Enjoying the History and Natural Wonders of Florida, Sweat Free!
No Sweat Planning! No Sweat Tour! No Sweat Booking!
At Canaveral Tours, we believe everyone should be able to see the history and beauty of Florida without enduring the extremes of Floridaâs climate and the stress of big city crowds. Our coach tour is a comfortable 10 passenger Mercedes coach. The standard tour boards at The Exploration Tower at Port Canaveral, public parking available and our ticket includes Free admission to the tower. Contact us for custom tours or boat tours. We can accommodate large group tours, contact us.
Our Lighthouse tour transports you to the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse for a guided tour. The 3 1/2 hour tour also includes history of the expansion of the cape, port and space programs. The tour stops at historic launch complexes, memorials and has views of operational launch complexes and a visit to the Sands Space History Center.
The history of Cape Canaveral goes back to the Ais Indians before European settlers arrived. In the late 1800âs the Lighthouse was constructed and permanent residents settled in. The 1940âs ushered in the missile and space programs which established what we know today as the Eastern Range, for missile and rocket launches. Commercial and military programs work side by side to keep the dream of space exploration alive. Port Canaveral plays an important role in assisting the space program, commercial industry, cruise industry and great places to eat and shop. Our tour takes you along this historic journey with views, visits and narratives of the history of Cape Canaveral.
Our Wildlife tours take you to see the natural wonders and beauty of Florida through the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge and Canaveral National Seashore. We are the only tour company that takes you on a âNo Sweatâ experience. We plan the itinerary, drive you in an air-conditioned executive coach and provide everything you need while you sit back and relax. We will point out interesting wildlife and landscape, binoculars are provided. We offer standard coach tours of 4 or 6 hours. Custom Coach or Boat tours are also available.
One thing we have learned is that nature changes every day. The good news is it doesnât matter what the weather, temperature or season, the refuge has something to offer. The early bird gets the worm, and thatâs why we get an early start on the day.
I am always amazed by the differences between tours. Sometimes the birdâs are so plentiful itâs a challenge to see them all. Other times they are scattered and you have more time to watch as they forage, hunt or play. Alligators, hogs, raccoons and other surprise visits of wildlife are common sights along the tour.
Manatee are active and visible almost every day, but if they are being shy it is not uncommon to see dolphin coming in for a meal. The varied habitat from fresh water marsh to saltwater marsh, hardwood hammock to pristine beach provides an opportunity to see a comprehensive wildlife habitat.
