Theme parks and attractions

Theme parks are not just for kids! Even is you’ve visited them as a child yourself, or with your own kids, the parks continue to improve and evolve and seeing them from an adult’s eyes will change your view for sure.  Orlando is home to two of the world’s best theme parks, namely Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando. The Magic Kingdom is where magic and adventure collide with six themed areas for you to explore with Cinderella’s Castle being an iconic structure to see. In Universal Orlando, you can visit The Wizarding World of Harry Potter as well as Volcano Bay for exciting rides and water parks.

Outdoor activities

Outdoor activities in Orlando are often overshadowed by the theme parks and attractions. The truth is there are many ways to enjoy and experience the great Florida outdoors. Visit Leu Gardens, a botanical garden that you’ll love getting lost in. Check out the Audubon Park Garden District where you’ll find bakeries, cafes, and even a brewery to visit. If you’re looking for a more exciting outdoor activity, Gatorland is worth considering for a chance to experience what Orlando was all about during its early days. And for that extra thrill, and maybe some group bonding, give the Screamin’ Gator Zip Line a try.

Dining venues

Orlando will not disappoint when it comes to dining experiences because there are dozens and dozens that are sure to satisfy every palate and craving. Check out The Osprey Tavern for some American food with a twist, Pizza Bruno for some authentic Neapolitan-style pizzas, and Santiago’s Bodega for tapas served in a restaurant filled with artworks and an open-air patio so you can enjoy the sunshine or the night sky. Whether it’s gourmet dining or a unique entertainment/ dining experience that you’re after, Orlando has it.
