Located just 30 minutes’ drive from Orlando International Airport and 50 minutes from Orlando Sanford Airport, Kissimmee is well placed to explore the wonders of Florida.
What is There to Do?
Just a little further south than the bustling theme parks of Orlando, why not broaden your horizons a little? Visit the Osceola Centre for the Arts and enjoy the fruit of the local artist’s labours. Head into the great outdoors to spot a wide variety of both tropical and exotic birds. Grab your hiking boots and wander along one of the many nature trails hidden in this gorgeous area.
Journey to the Old Town Shopping Complex for some window shopping. St. Cloud is also worth a trip and the beautiful mixture of stunning architecture and plentiful restaurants will keep everyone occupied.
Step back in time, watch a jousting match and have a meal at Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament.
What Can I See a Little Further Afield?
Take a short drive to Daytona Beach, a popular destination due to its beautiful sandy beaches and variety of attractions. Enjoy wonders such as Daytona Lagoon, a waterpark near the Daytona 500 Experience, an interactive motorsports attraction and museum.
To the east lies the city of Tampa. Explore Busch Gardens, an African-themed animal park. Here you will also find Florida Aquarium. There are plenty of shows to amuse the little ones, and if you are feeling brave you can swim with the sharks!
Drive a little further to St Petersburg. There are some fantastic beaches here where you can soak up the sunshine. Head to Clearwater Beach and watch the sunset.
