Note: a tour director will not be present during your stay at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center Space Camp.

Ignite your passion for STEM and exploration! Space Camp offers an immersive journey through hands-on experiences in science, engineering, technology, and mathematics. All meals will be included during your stay at Space Camp.

The Space Camp check in and orientation takes place on Sunday between 1:30pm - 2:30 pm.

Space Camp delivers an immersive STEM experience to engage in astronaut-style training and real-world engineering challenges. The program builds teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills through a variety of hands-on activities. Participate in gravity and multi-axis simulators, rocket design and launch, SCUBA diving in the Underwater Astronaut Trainer (with medical clearance), and jet aircraft flight simulations. Explore the global role of the International Space Station and test engineering skills with tasks like heat shield construction and rover building. The experience culminates in an extended-duration Mars mission simulation, bringing together everything learned in a dynamic, team-based environment.

Graduation marks the end of the 6-day, 5-night program and includes a ceremony celebrating the achievements throughout the week.

Fisherman’s Wharf is San Francisco’s #1 visitor destination for a reason. Several reasons, actually. Aquatic Park. The Maritime Museum. The famed cable cars. And, of course, Alcatraz. And that’s just for starters. There’s also specialty shopping, world-class dining, and all forms of entertainment—including the area’s most noted performers, the sea lions of Pier 39, whose barks can be heard from blocks away.

Visit the Exploratorium at Pier 15, the gateway to exploring science, art, and human perception. Let your curiosity roam through more than 600 interactive exhibits as you levitate, touch a tornado, mix colors, break light apart, stop time, capture a wave and more.

The island of Alcatraz has a rich and storied history, and you'll hear about it all on this tour of one of America's most famous (and infamous) islands. Before becoming the prison of popular lore, Alcatraz previously served as a lighthouse and a military base. But you don't want to hear about that...you want to hear about the prison! Check out the previous cells of such notorious prisoners as Al Capone, Robert Franklin Stroud (the "Birdman of Alcatraz"), and James "Whitey" Bulger. Decide for yourself whether Clarence Anglin, John Anglin, and Frank Morris really drowned in their intricate escape attempt made famous in the film Escape From Alcatraz.

Stroll across the Golden Gate Bridge, one of the most famous suspension bridges in the world and an icon of the San Francisco Bay area.

See the city and ride like a local as you hop on the cable car. Either find a seat or hold on to the handles as you go up and down the hills of San Francisco.
