Best places to visit in Orlando apart from theme parks?
Hi there
I was wondering what the best places for entertainment for a family of four would be in Orlando. We've done the theme parks before but now we are looking for other attractions for our holiday.
Any answers would be truly grateful as we leave next week.
Thank you

Check out the website you can sort out what you think your family would enjoy. I suggest dinner shows or since it is still burnin up outside a waterpark which can be fun for everyone

Taking a stroll down International Dr you will find cheap fun things to do.

As far as restaurants go, Seasons 52 in the Dr. Phillips area is amazing! You may also consider things inside of the Resort Areas that you have not done before. Did you know there's a free nightly outdoor campfire and movie at Ft. Wilderness? Every night is a different movie, ranging from Disney Classics like Lady and the Tramp and Cinderella, to more modern favorites like National Treasure and Pirates of the Caribean.
Did you know you can visit the Disney Resort Hotels even if you're not a guest of that hotel? Just let security know you're there to visit, shop or dine. Animal Kingdom Lodge is a personal favorite. Jiko has the largest selection of South African Wines outside of South Africa, and offers AAA 4 diamond cuisine. The Lodge has multiple savannah's that offer night-vision viewing of the animals after dark.
Any golfers in the family? Orlando's courses like Bay Hill, Falcon's Fire, The Kissimmee Oaks, Reunion, Palm and Magnolia have hosted PGA and LPGA events year after year.
Still working on your long ball? You'll find PLENTY of mini-golf courses throughout orlando. My personal favorite is Fantasia Fairways next to the Swan and Dolphin resorts. It's modeled after a full size golf course with Sand Traps, Water Hazards and more!
Depending on the time of year, don't forget about events like Orlando Magic basketball games, Orlando Preditors Arena League Football games and other such events. Then there are annual festivals like the Epcot Food and Wine Festival, the Winter Park Farmers Market, the Celebration Farmers Market, Celebrate The Holidays in the town of Celebration, and so much more!

The town of Orlando is found in one of many world's most visited tourist parts, which brings tens of thousands guests each year and you may be one in the event that you have a look with hotelbye . On the list of key tourist attractions of Orlando are: Walt Disney World£Earth, SeaWorld Orlando, and Universal Orlando. Orlando's SeaWorld, with its enormous aquariums, dolphin and whale reveals, feel pools, and intensive list of tours, draws a large household crowd is the perfect place to opt for the family. In that place you will even get the opportunity for a up close encounter with dolphins and different residents. SeaWorld in Orlando is on the list of world's largest marine parks and certainly the absolute most visited.

Winter Park is a cool area for window shopping, sidewalk cafes and there is a wonderful museum of Tiffany glass, Morse Museum. If you're looking for an inexpensive dinner, The Outta Control Dinner Show at WonderWorks on International Drive is fantastic. I always take out of town guests there fore something different. It's really good. Also, try airboating if you haven't.

Definitely the Orlando Science Center. Also the Pirate's Dinner Adventure is great for the family....its a little pricey but it's definitely worth it. Other favorites of mine are Disney Quest, Aquatica, and Cirque de Soleil. Have fun.

I don't know what you might be interested in but the Orlando Science Center is a fun way to spend the day for people of all ages.

Frankly if it wasn't for the theme parks and a friend who lives in the area, I wouldn't visit Orlando. I'd visit Miami/Ft Lauderdale or Daytona Beach
