There is more to Florida than the wealth of theme parks in the Orlando area. The city of Orlando provides a visitor with a multitude of sights, sounds, entertainment, and food, and one good place to find that is on International Drive, where, contrary to its name, you should park your car and wander around on foot. People come back here every year because they know it is where they will find everything they could possibly want.
A visit must be made to the Central Florida Zoological Park in Sanford which has been opened since 1975. Any animal lover would be in awe at their collect of over four hundred animals. They are a charitable privately owned organization that are dedicated to protecting exotic animals and those that originated in Florida as well as provide classes and events for children.
Another great place to visit about twenty minutes drive from Orlando Airport is The Orlando Science Center, originating back to 1955; it is a huge complex with over two hundred thousand square feet of exhibition space spanning ten halls. The International Trolley and Train Museum contains 14 trains that continually run through the mountains, forests, and urban areas and they contain three waterfalls that run 12,000 gallons of water each hour.
There are plenty of resorts to chose from and a good place to check them out is the Trip Advisor website where you will find plenty of unbiased reviews, including the ‘candid’ travellers photos as opposed to the often unrecognizable official hotel ones. One brand new resort which is becoming popular is the Caribe Cove Resort in Kissimmee. Caribe Cove Resort is a platinum rated resort in a quiet location, yet close enough to the action, with enormous condos and first class decor and furnishings. It is surrounded by lush wetlands yet still only minutes from Disney and provides a real oasis to return to after a frenetic day at the parks and attractions of Orlando. There’s no need for ‘candid’ photos at this resort as what you see is really what you get!
