When it comes to attractions, there’s so much more to Orlando than the big theme parks. Areas like International Drive and Kissimmee offer lots of places to explore and get lost in the wonder of it all. Play tourist for a day, a weekend or even a week, and explore these other gems right in our own backyard.
Before theme parks took over, tourists flocked to Florida for tropical beauty, small towns, unique wildlife, clear springs, and to get a glimpse of the final frontier: space travel. Don’t miss these “Old Florida” attractions beyond Orlando that have been drawing visitors for decades.
Orlando attractions are getting back to normal. And it’s just in time, as theme parks and smaller venues debut myriad offerings—including new coasters, rides, water slides, shows, festivals and even brand-new theme parks! Come along for the ride as we tour what’s new and what not to miss at Central Florida’s world-class attractions. There’s no better time to play the tourist than now.
Theme parks across Central Florida are reopening with adjusted hours, limited capacity, and a host of new requirements. Get the latest information here.
