Water park
Gatorland, known as the Alligator Capital of the World, is a renowned animal park in Orlando that focuses on reptiles. Spanning 110 acres, it is home to a diverse range of creatures including alligators, crocodiles, birds of prey, and other wildlife. Visitors can witness these fascinating animals up close and even enjoy educational shows and wildlife programs throughout the day.
We are avid park hoppers and have had annual passes to the Big 3 in Florida for decades, but this was our first time visiting Gatorland. We now have a toddler and have been looking for more tiny tiny person-friendly attractions, and Gatorland did not disappoint! We purchased discount tickets from a kids expo we recently attended, and figured we would spend an hour or two walking around. Boy, were we wrong! We were there the entire day, and walked several laps around the park. Our toddler was thrilled with getting to feed the alligators, flamingos, and visiting the zoo to feed the goats. The food was affordable and tasty, and the wait times to experience the attractions were minimal. The selection of animals at the park was much larger than we originally thought, and we learned a lot during our visit. Their Halloween setups were really good, although we opted to skip the haunted house with our little one. There was also a really nice playground and splash area for the kiddos, but for to the weather we skipped them for this visit. The highlight of my day was seeing the famous Jawlene! We plan on getting annual passes and visiting again soon!

We visited Gatorland and honestly, even we adults felt like excited kids the whole time. The park was very clean and it was really nice to see the animals looking healthy, well-fed, and well cared for. Watching the alligators up close felt safe and interesting, not scary. The whole park gave us a great impression. There is a really nice kids’ area with a playground and a small water zone where children can cool off. There were plenty of places to sit, relax, or grab something to eat, which is super helpful when visiting with a family. The animal shows were fun and very well organized. The spots for the alligator shows are set up comfortably, and it was easy to see everything. We also took a ride on the little train that goes around the park — simple but very fun and cute. Overall, everything was great. We had an amazing time and truly recommend Gatorland to everyone visiting Orlando.

A trip down memory lane was well worth it. I’m in my 60s now and was only 6 the last time I went. The staff was kind and gave me a Veterans pass (free) and my friends and I had an incredible afternoon. Yep, plenty of gators and other exotic wildlife. Take the kids, bring your out of state/town friends and be ready for a fun time.
Gary A — Google review
Excellent day out, highly recommend. We brought tickets online and for an extra $10 it included the train (which had broke down, but a man was there with a baby gator the size of his hand that you could touch which more than made up for it) a bag of gator chow and to pose with the big gator. They give you a card with these on when you go in and need it to get these extras. You can also feed the baby gators fish from a rod $5 for 3 fish, highly recommend this. You can also hold a small gator and snake for $10. For $10 you can also feed a big tortoise which was a lovely experience. The shows are entertaining. Alternative day out to the parks but still very much enjoyable, one of our favourite days,

Gatorland is way more than just gators — it’s an awesome mix of fun, education, and “Old Florida” charm! 💚 The information boards are a total win — big, bold fonts that are easy to read, packed with cool facts, and even sprinkled with humor. You’ll actually want to stop and read them all! 😄 Every exhibit is full of personality — colorful, well-decorated, and never boring. From massive gators to rare white alligators, birds, snakes, and crocs, there’s something jaw-dropping around every corner. 🐍🦜 Families love how affordable it is compared to other Orlando attractions, and kids go crazy for the splash park and mini train ride. 🚂💦 Feeling brave? The zip line over the alligator pond and off-road monster truck ride are unforgettable adrenaline boosts! ⚡️ The park’s got a relaxed vibe — you can easily spend a few hours exploring, snapping photos, and catching live shows (don’t miss the Jumparoo show!). 🧡 Hungry? Don’t miss the famous Gator Bites — yes, real gator! 🐊 Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and served with a tangy dipping sauce that makes them downright addictive. It’s a must-try snack that perfectly matches the Florida vibe! 😋🔥 Love, Jess 💜

This place is a blast. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. It's a very clean and lovely park and there are so many gators!! They have other animals as well. They also provide a lot of information about the animals are work hard in conversation of endangered animals. Will be back again. Also the upclose encounter shown as so cute and funny. Those guys are wonderful and very engaging with the audience.
Amanda C — Google review
Great place! Great value! If you visit Orlando without stopping at Gatorland you’re making a mistake. The best thing you can do is the trainer for a day pass. We got the $50 photo package and had such a blast. Over one hundred photos and we got to pet and even hold more than a few animals. It’s also done in a safe and responsible manner which was nice to see. I’ve been to a place in Branson that left you sad over the animal’s conditions, this was far from that.

Must do. Veterans special makes us vets feel great. Much to see. Everyone is friendly. Nice lay out . My 3 yr old grand kid had a great time. Good 4 kids. I've seen a lot of gators in my time. They have a few of the biggest I've witnessed. Cool.

Amusement park
Laser tag center
WonderWorks Orlando is an amusement park for the mind located in the city's International Drive entertainment district. Housed in a unique upside-down building, it offers over 100 hands-on science exhibits across six wonder zones, including Extreme Weather, Space Discovery, and Physical Challenges. Visitors can also enjoy attractions like laser tag, a ropes course, and a 6D motion ride. The venue provides an engaging and educational experience suitable for all ages.
The staff was very nice and helpful. I enjoyed Ana who explained the military discount to us and took care of us at the front counter. Everyone else up there was nice too! We also meant Bill who just started working at WonderWorks a few months ago and he was very nice sat down with us and talked and shared how he liked working there. We started off our visit in the cafe with pizza. It was very good. Then we ventured on into the WonderWorks adventure. We did not get the pass to the arcade however there was plenty to do besides that. The little one enjoyed the second floor and all its interactive stations. And the 10-year old of course wanted to do the laser tag and the Rope course. Despite it being small it seemed to accommodate the people that were there okay. It was a nice adventure for a Saturday afternoon!

It was so much fun! I had a blast with the different activities and some of the games I got to play with my siblings. The ropes course was a lot of fun, laser tag was a lot of fun, the roller coaster simulation was a lot of fun as well as the gyroscope ride. Overall just a great time especially with family would highly recommend checking it out.

We went to Wonder-Works Orlando today. It was so much fun. There were roller coasters, soccer, electronic shooting, and rope adventures. There was something for all ages and stages. It was so relaxing. I couldn't play all of them in one day. 😀😀

This was such a cool interactive experience. I loved reading about fun facts in each exhibit. My group of four really enjoyed the simulations! I would absolutely visit again.

Cool place. Interactive amusement park with a scientific approach. My family and I were there on the weekend. There were a lot of kids on the weekend but no one waited in line. Everyone was having fun to the fullest. The staff was very friendly and involved. So many children and their parents visit this place! A huge thank you to the staff for dealing with such a large flow of people! My child really liked the large interactive sandbox; the touch screen where you have to hit the fruits. I liked the invisible piano, and the big screen where you have to shoot soft balls at attacking zombies. The room with the hurricane wind scared me a bit)
Andara — Google review
Our family had such a fun and memorable time at WonderWorks! From the moment we saw the upside-down building, we knew it was going to be something special. Inside, everything was hands-on and engaging — from the bed of nails to the bubble lab, space zone, and the ropes course. The staff were friendly, helpful, and patient with the kids, which made the experience even better. We spent several hours exploring and still didn’t get to everything! It’s the perfect mix of fun and learning, and a great way to beat the Florida heat since it’s all indoors and air-conditioned. Highly recommend going early in the day or on a weekday to avoid crowds. Overall, WonderWorks is a must-visit if you’re in Orlando with family — it’s interactive, educational, and packed with activities for all ages.
Don V — Google review
We visited with our 13 & 10 year old children to get out of the summer heat - this was fantastic & thoroughly entertained our easily bored sons who usually are not impressed by anything other than a new Xbox game!! We spent 5 hours here! Worth every penny. Staff were super friendly.
Bee M — Google review
The downstairs was a bit underwhelming, but the second floor was a blast with lots of fun, hands-on exhibits. The third-floor arcade is cool, but I wouldn’t recommend paying the upcharge for it—it’s not really worth the extra cost. Still, a fun spot overall, especially for kids and families.

I used to have an annual pass here, so I went a lot. Always had a great time, especially at the animal and insects exhibition. There have a lot of hands-on activities here. It’s great to bring your kids to learn about science!! My friend had a wedding here last year and it was well organized and beautiful. We had an amazing time!! We also went here for their OSC After Dark Halloween event. I was impressed with how organize they were! All the staffs were nice and there were a lot of activities. They also have an open bar here with a lot of drinks stations so there was no wait to get the drinks! The dance floor was full and music was good :) The only feedback I have is it should be longer since the event was only 3 hours long (8-11pm). But overall, we all had a great time and will be back next year.

Went on a Sunday morning, family of 4 with a 1 yr old and a 6 yr old - there was so much for both of them to do! No wait for admissions. Free with ASTC membership. Great coffee shop & cafe with affordable quality food options and snacks for all. Can bring food/drinks with no problems. Large 4 floors of excitement! Parking is a cost $8-$12 for a day. Indoor playground with sections for toddlers and older kids ( over 4 yes) kinetics, super hero, water fun/splash etc plus a nice showing of iMax films in their theatre. Added bonus, cool gift shop! Would def come again if visiting Orlando area!

Had a great time spending a day here..one day is not enough to cover everything with the scheduled shows, experiences and all other activities throughout the building with four levels.. we even missed one of the levels because of all the activities during the day so upgraded the single day tickets to family membership at the end.. really worth paying for the tickets if going with kids..lot to learn and do for all ages together with lot of fun. Definitely going back soon to enjoy everything again..loved it!

My grandkids mentioned how much fun they had when they went with their class on a school trip to the Science Center, so I decided to surprise them on our last day together! They had such a great time! There were some new exhibits, like the DC Super Heroes, and a few they didn’t get to see while they were on their school trip, so they enjoyed having a bit more freedom this time around to explore. It’s a wonderful place for both kids and adults with so much to see and do!

A great activity for younger children and lovers of science and nature. I definitely recommend an annual pass for locals as it will definitely pay for itself and comes with early access to kid zone, and parking. The rotating exhibits, events, and seasonal activities are awesome!

Crayola Experience Orlando, located in The Florida Mall, is a vibrant indoor destination that offers an array of colorful and creative activities for children. With nearly 30 hands-on attractions, kids can engage in art projects, entertaining shows, and interactive experiences. From making drip art to creating souvenirs out of crayon wax, there are plenty of opportunities for young ones to unleash their creativity.
Lots of cool crafts to do. Definitely geared toward children, but plenty to do for adults. If you think you'll come more than one time in a year, go ahead and splurge for the annual pass, it's only about $10 more than a single-day ticket.
JJ — Google review
I visited for the first time on 10/21/25, I used my Florida HIA member card to get 50% off admission. I visited by myself, and didn't really know what to expect. I LOVED the attraction and within an hour I went back downstairs to upgrade to an Annual Pass! I really enjoyed the Drip Art and Molding Station! I thought the seasonal scavenger hunt was really cute too. I enjoyed the two Theatre Shows, The Crayon Demo (which sadly is pre-recorded), and the animated short Chaos & Creativity were both fantastic. I was really impressed with the storytelling in both of these presentations, especially in Chaos & Creativity which was a fully CG animated, voice acted, ~12 minute short. I also loved that the Chaos & Creativity segment was accessible- it had subtitles on the side monitors in multiple languages... kudos to Crayola for being accessible! The only thing I didn't get to experience that I wanted to was the Character Meet & Greets, but I will come back for those! Overall, a fun attraction with lots of creativity involved! I would recommend for all ages, but especially those with an interest in any form of the arts!

This was a pretty awesome spot at the Florida Mall. So many fun activities for kids to enjoy. I enjoyed it even as an adult. There are lots of free activities for kids to do but there are also options to purchase tokens for add on experiences. There is a snack bar as well as a larger cafe area. You are able to host birthday parties here as well.

Huge thanks to Kerstin for absolutely stellar communication and care in organizing Lucas’s 5th birthday. And a massive shout-out to Charlie C. — you were incredible! Thanks for taking the time to walk us through the place, answering every single question with patience and a smile, and for making us feel so welcome and seen on such a special day. You really went above and beyond. Service: way more than 5 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Price: Excellent Activities: Top tier My husband and I really didn’t want a typical trampoline-spot party. We wanted our kid, his sister, and their friends to explore and express—touch their senses, get creative, make art. And thanks to Crayola Experience, we nailed it.

🎉 A Birthday Celebration in Full Color at Crayola Experience Orlando! 🖍️ We recently celebrated a birthday at the Crayola Experience Orlando, and I can genuinely say we had an absolutely fabulous time! It was an unforgettable day filled with creativity, laughter, and so much color. The birthday celebration felt extra special thanks to the vibrant, engaging atmosphere. We were so impressed with the value and the sheer number of activities that I even left with a season pass—which is a testament to how much we loved it and how eager we are to return! Highlights and Must-Do Activities! We absolutely loved all the great hands-on activities. It was a perfect blend of high-tech and classic artistic fun for everyone in our group. Wrap It Up!: This was a huge hit! Being able to name and wrap your very own custom Crayola crayon is such a unique and personal souvenir. It's a great activity for both kids and adults! Melt & Mold / Drip Art: Watching the crayons melt and transform into new shapes or swirly art at Melt & Mold and Drip Art was fascinating and yielded a fun, colorful keepsake. The Crayon Factory Show: The live show with the Crayonologist and animated friends like Scarlet and Turk was both educational and entertaining, showing us exactly how crayons are made! Color Playground: For the kids (and adults who need a break!), the two-story Color Playground is a great place to burn off energy. Wiggling up the "melted wax tower" and across the "paint bridge" was a blast. Be a Star: We loved posing in front of the screen to become the star of our very own coloring page! It’s a fun, quirky photo-op and souvenir all in one. Modeling Madness: Sculpting with the fluffy Crayola Model Magic compound allowed for some fantastic, take-home 3D creations. Helpful Information & Tips For anyone planning a visit to the Crayola Experience, here's some extra info we found useful: Location: The attraction is conveniently located at The Florida Mall in Orlando, which means there is plenty of nearby dining and free parking. Admission & Passes: General admission tickets grant you access to the 20+ hands-on attractions. The Season Pass (which I purchased!) is excellent value if you plan on visiting more than once a year. Length of Visit: We easily spent four hours there and could have stayed longer! Plan for at least half a day to enjoy most of the attractions without feeling rushed. It's truly an all-day experience. Tokens: Some of the most popular attractions, like Wrap It Up! and Melt & Mold, require special tokens, which are usually included with your admission or can be purchased as an add-on. Overall, the Crayola Experience is an absolute must-do for families in Orlando, especially for a birthday. It's a joyful, vibrant, and incredibly creative day out. We can't wait to use our season pass and go back for more colorful fun!

My kid had fun for about 3 hours and was over it. The experience of paying 20+ a person to watch a child experience coloring in different ways is not worth it unless you yourself love coloring just as much as they do. This is a good one time experience. They need an option for parents not to pay and just the kids pay for entrance. And why is is slime lab an extra $15?. The 3d video coloring projections, scribble scrubbie, spin art, and melted coloring are fun, but otherwise, not much else going on to keep you entertained, except normal coloring. There is an indoor playground, but my kid wasn't interested.

This was quite a place to take your family too. The souvenir shop is on the first floor, and the Crayola attractions are upstairs. There's playgrounds for children, a snack bar with collectible cups & buckets, a big coloring station with crayons, one with markers, a station for their air dry clay (tokens required for clay purchases), paint, crayon melting, Crayola history, photo op with Crayola Characters (right now it's with the Retired Colors), and even personalized crayon stations! There's so much to do, it's astounding. While directed mainly for a child audience there are things there for all Crayola fans of all ages. You can sit and color, make personalized coloring pages, take photos with the characters, games, food, attend a Crayola auditorium experience (I believe it was about the history of Crayola & their crayons, we didn't get to go to that as my little one enjoyed the playground more than anything else lol). Throughout the attraction level it has bits and pieces of Crayola's history and information about their products. Almost like a mini - museum of sorts. Upon entry you are giving a clear, Crayola bag with two tokens and one voucher for your choice of Scribble Scrubbies! The bags are to carry your momentos and artwork you create. This place is great for parents who want their kids to play somewhere that can also allow the parents to sit nearby and relax as the children play near them. It's nearing the end of summer break at the time of this posting, therefore it was insanely busy. However, I'd go back even without my child lol. I was a big Crayola kid growing up, as I drew, colored, and crafted a lot and still do now. It's because of the Limited Edition Retired Colors of 2025 for being why I'm taking this trip down memory lane for a bit of nostalgia. My only complaints were that it was insanely hot inside where you get admission for. All of our heads were wet from sweating. I do not know if it's naturally that warm or if an AC was out, but it was a bit uncomfortable in that sense. Also, the gift shop, while having a large selection of coloring, art, and collector's items, it didn't have a lot of the popular coloring products (such as specific crayons, markers, pencils). It also didn't have everything that the Retired Colors include for their line, just the basics: coloring book, packs, markers, pencils, some stickers, and Small-medium crayon packs. Basically, if you're looking for certain collection items just expect the selection to not be super big in the shop and do your research online. They do have the Pick Your Pack Crayon and Marker wall, though! Which also includes the Retired Colors you can add to your choice of tin. Overall, we got some great goodies and we had a lot of fun. I cannot wait to return!

Crayola Experience in Orlando was just that. Totally awesome taking the grandchildren to a place that has made memories in all of us. From that first coloring book and crayola box that made our imaginations flow to all the new colors made every year. Something for everyone to enjoy. Especially when you get to see them 😃 smile.

Disney Springs is one of my favorite places to go with my family and just enjoy a nice day out. It’s perfect for walking around, exploring all the shops, and grabbing a bite at one of the many great restaurants. There’s always something to see or do.... from live music to fun little spots to grab a drink and relax. It’s one of those places where you can go just to stroll, eat, shop, or simply hang out and have a good time. Definitely one of my go-to spots for a fun and relaxing family outing.

Easy to find parking on a Monday in November. It was nice to walk around and shop. Highlight was the Lego store for my son. The dragon in the pond made out legos is also impressive. Coco cola store was pretty cool too with an awesome rooftop bar. Don’t believe there was alcohol. Enjoyed walking by the lake and watching the car boat..Felt safe and with plenty of restrooms throughout.

Absolutely love Disney Springs! Such a beautiful and vibrant place perfect for families of all ages. Every evening there’s live music on several stages, great energy, and something fun for everyone. So many shops, art studios, restaurants, and cafés with live bands. The Cirque du Soleil show is world-class truly spectacular! 🎪 Even the free multi-level parking garages have cute names like Orange, Lime, and Grapefruit 🍊🍋 everything here feels special. It’s one of those places where you can walk for hours, enjoy the atmosphere, and always discover something new. Highly recommend visiting! 🌟

As a Disney fan and a tourist I just love Disney Springs. There’s so much to do, to eat and to shop, just an incredible destination. There are over hundreds brands, including Disney merchandise store, a cocacola store, AMC, Lululemon, Superdry, Coach, and even a Uniqlo. There are activities like mirror maze, escape room, balloon ride, carousel and boat rides. There several restaurants of different cuisine and style all across Disney Springs. My favorite one is Salt and Straw. Their ice cream is so good. For regular restaurants, the ones I dined in had mediocre food. There are multiple stalls and small stores selling small bites, snacks and drinks too. The parking is here. They have two different lot, the orange that in at the AMC/Cocacola side. The other one is Lemon lot, sort of in the middle close to Uniqlo and Disney world. It’s highly secured as all guests go through metal detectors and bag checks. Security personnel also walk around to ensure visitors safety. The whole area is super clean. The ponds have turquoise water. Feels incredible to walk around. The prices of food and other goods are higher as expected since it’s a tourist destination. But that doesn’t stop people from shopping as everyone is excited to get their hands unique Disney merchandise and products. The shops like Uniqlo and Lululemon carry limited edition Disney products that I haven’t seen anywhere else. We spent half a day here and it still wasn’t enough. We will visit again whenever we are back in Orlando in future.

This is a great opportunity to be engaged with all things Disney without being in an actual park. There are so many things to do, see, and buy. There are tons of restaurants, shops, and experiences. I came here a long time ago, when it was still called Downtown Disney, but it's much bigger now. I had a lot of fun trying new food and people watching.

Tons of Disney shopping, food, drinks, and still have tons of cool displays. More fun for the parents to walk through at night, and a fun spot to have a cool dining experience. I love planet Hollywood to eat at. It's so cool inside!! I ended up buying souvenirs that I didnt find in the park. The BEST part??? You can get adult beverages and walk around with them 😍 The vibes are so fun, and there is live music. Everyone seemed to be having a great time. Parking was very easy, there are several garages that are all free. If you park at LIME garage, you walk right out into Disney Springs. It's the easiest parking in my opinion. It was also super clean, as are all the parks. Prices were fair. We got a HUGE mickey cookie for $7.99. Prices were very reasonable at the cauldron candy shop. I didnt feel like I was getting robbed.

Disney Springs is one of the best parts of Walt Disney World. Superb dining and drinking offerings, top-tier shopping options, and plenty of entertaining things to see and do for both kids and adults—even if you’re not into Disney. The Disney Springs free parking garages are the icing on the cake. They are clean, safe, easy to navigate, always have parking spaces readily available, and exit right into the heart of whatever part of Disney Springs you want to explore.

The Kennedy Space Center Store is a must-visit destination for space enthusiasts and curious minds alike. Located in Cape Canaveral, just a short drive from Orlando, this iconic attraction offers interactive exhibits, simulators, IMAX movies, and special events that cater to both kids and adults. Visitors have the opportunity to learn about the history of space exploration and current missions through hands-on experiences. Additionally, the center provides the chance to witness rocket launches, meet astronauts, and participate in unique events.
We had a late flight out of Orlando and decided to make a stop here. This was definitely a highlight of our trip and I would recommend going early in the day! We first went onto the bus tour so we could get that out of the way. There is so much to see here and it was fun for all ages. Lots of awesome information and lot to see. You definitely need a whole day here just to see everything there is.

It’s a souvenir shop at a tourist attraction. Now, with that being said, I liked their layout and it made it easy to browse. The checkout, being self checkout, made it quick and easy. I know that some don’t like self checkout but I am a fan. The store is clean and has a great varietyllll

We really enjoyed our time at the Kennedy space center. We wished we were there for a launch. People were very friendly I think we could have done two days there. There is a lot to see. I definitely recommend downloading the app so you can get reservations for the vr experience. I didn't do the vr (I'm sensitive to lights sounds and strobes) but the rest of my family did The food ordering was fast and efficient Food was ehh but it's cafeteria food. We didn't have time for the imax. But we had a great time.

An amazing place packed full of history and exhibits. It's always been a place that's I've wanted to visit growing up, and it did not disappoint. Before the trip I booked and paid for the KSC tour, and it was 100% worth the $26 to go on it. There's a private bus that takes you to the launch sites and the area outside the shuttle assembly point that you don't get on the normal tour. We had a brilliant and knowledgeable tour guide that talked through everything whilst on the tour. The gift shop is large and has loads of brilliant gifts and souvenirs. They have all the patches of every launch on sale as well.

Kennedy Space Center was definitely a cool experience, and there’s a lot of history and impressive displays that make it worth seeing at least once. That said, during our visit a surprising number of experiences and interactive activities were out of order or unavailable, which took away from the overall excitement. It’s still a solid one-time visit, especially if you’re into space or NASA history, but I wouldn’t say it felt fully operational or worth returning to anytime soon.

Took the day to explore this place and still did not see everything. I took someone's suggestion and reserving the bus that takes you yo the other side where you cannot drive yourself too and I went early. Made it back in time to explore the Atlantis! That was lots of fun especially taking a ride in the simulator. I don't like adventure rides bit I took a chance with that one. It was ok. I actually expected more but that's probably after hearing the details of how it is on an actual rocket take off. Haha For every exhibition you visit they take your picture. I swear I wasn't going to get any but that swear couldn't hold up when I got to the space center and the Atlantis... They did a good job! Parking was $10 . I paid $62 to skip the line but I git there 30 minutes after opening so there wasn't any line plus it was on a Monday. Stay hydrated and have fun. The food prices are reasonable.

Our visit to the Kennedy Space Center went far beyond our expectations. We went as a family — me, my husband, my daughter, and my son-in-law — and spent an unforgettable day filled with wonder, learning, and pure excitement. Right from the entrance, you can feel the energy of the place — a blend of history, science, and human ambition. Seeing the massive rockets like the Saturn V and real space shuttles up close was simply surreal. Every exhibit is immersive, with sound tunnels, video projections, realistic models, and detailed mission history that truly make you feel part of the NASA story. The highlight for all of us was the space launch simulator — absolutely mind-blowing! You feel like you’re truly blasting off into space, complete with sound, movement, and vibration. It gave us a glimpse into the intensity astronauts face — thrilling, realistic, and totally fun. We honestly wanted to go again! We also visited the interactive museum, watched historic videos from the Apollo missions, saw real astronaut suits, original spacecraft capsules, and even touched real meteorite fragments. The experience is educational in the most engaging way — ideal for both adults and kids. The center also features space-themed restaurants, NASA gift shops, shaded outdoor areas, clean restrooms, and plenty of air-conditioned rest zones. Everything was well-maintained and the staff was incredibly helpful and kind. One touching part of our visit was the Astronaut Memorial Hall, honoring those who gave their lives during space missions. It was a powerful reminder of the courage and sacrifice involved in pushing human limits. For us as a family, it was a perfect day — full of joy, amazement, and inspiration. We left with our hearts full, eyes wide open, and minds dreaming big. I highly recommend this place to everyone — whether you're a science lover or just curious about space, the Kennedy Space Center is an absolute must-visit! 🚀🌎✨💫

SeaWorld Orlando is a renowned theme park in Orlando that offers an array of marine-themed attractions and shows. Visitors can enjoy thrilling rides like the Manta roller coaster and the Kraken Unleashed virtual reality roller coaster, as well as up-close encounters with dolphins, penguins, sea lions, and turtles. The park's killer whale show, One Ocean, provides insight into the majestic creatures' behaviors.
Oh my goodness! What a fabulous way to end family vacation! We went to hall-o-scream! So much to do in so little time! A staff member, Amanda (don't know her last name) was by the VIP area when we entered at 7pm on 10/12. She was EXTREMELY helpful and informative for a family that has never been to SeaWorld let alone Halloween SeaWorld. My daughter loved the roller coasters and I loved loved all the different scare areas. They did get everyone in our party to jump which was fabulous as we are a family of ghosts ghouls and goblins. The opening scene was beautifully put together and gave us chills. The monster show was gorgeous! I spent more tonight on Halloween attire than I did any other day of my trip and honestly completely worth it. All of my family (3 adults 2 teens) enjoyed it and it had something for all of us. We came down from Alaska for vacay and to look at areas to possibly move to and this was a last minute add in. For $45.99 I would go again if I could. Thank you for ending our week off from life with a great show!

We arrived on the Friday before Labor Day weekend. They open only 10.a.m. that day. Many people didn’t know, arrived much earlier and so there was a long line around the whole pick-up/drop-off area. But we made it into the park around 10.30h. So it was better that it looked at first. The three major shows are still good. The coaster rides are really thrilling. So not all of them are for the whole family. This might explain the surprisingly short wait times. I did not see anything over 30 minutes. Many rides were 10 min or under. Don’t go by the wait times in their App. Even their own staff at guest relations admit that the App is not reliable here. I only give the park four stars, since the organization lacks here and there. But overall we had a great time. I read reviews from people complaining about prices at the ticket booth. Well guys, your own fault. It is a known fact that these days at many places online booking saves money. I read complaints about their food prices. But the portions are big. And if you buy online tickets you get a voucher worth $20 per ticket for food without any extra costs. You can redeem it for food or merchandise. But you need to go to guest relations counter to receive it.

Beautiful place. Not very long waiting times for rides even on a weekend. If you don’t like rollercoasters or go with elderly people/small kids they have a lot more to see. Great for going with family. It has more animals and shows than I expected; I was surprised with the amount of activities to do. Will definitely go again.

Halloween Trick or Treating at SeaWorld is a must! They had a ton of stations set up and had great candy and snacks. I love that they encouraged to keep coming back as well! A friend and I brought our sons for a surprise Mommy n Me Trip. The trip was off to a rough start just due to the shut down and both of us being tied to the government in different ways, the struggle is real. BUT the trip had already been planned so we were making the most of it! I want to give a special thank you to Nery at guest services who was helping us redeem a voucher. She was so detailed in helping us plan our day! She was so kind and just brought sunshine to our first day of our trip. She is amazing!!!

We had a great time at SeaWorld. I had no idea they had rides. We ended up with a 2nd day free because it rained and the Vacation booth gave us tickets for free admission the next day. I thought that was really nice. Also we got tickets in advance with groupon included a free meal so that was another plus. But we enjoyed our visit to SeaWorld and will be back. The Orca Show was so much fun.

My experience at Sea World Orlando was amazing! We watched dolphins do tricks and were really amazing, I went on some rides and were also really great and the food at the restaurants or stores within this amusement park was really amazing. We went there on a Sunday a few months ago. We went to colourful lights on the drones at night and staff were really friendly. Would highly recommend going there.

Overall, I think it's a really cool place that offered a very cool aquatic animal experience. However, a lot of things were closed, including restaurants for the all-day-dining and several rides. My son is 7 and was looking forward to the water rides, but they were closed. It made the extra $30 for the dining deal not really worth it, which was a shame. I did fully enjoy seeing the animals and the dolphin show made my day ☺️, so it's still a great place!

Fun Spot America Theme Parks in Orlando offers a break from the typical big-name theme parks, providing a more old-fashioned and budget-friendly amusement park experience. With two convenient locations, it features thrilling rides like the White Lightning wooden roller coaster and Mine Blower indoor steel coaster. Families can enjoy bumper cars, go-karts, and a Ferris wheel. The park's free admission makes it an attractive option for those seeking affordable excitement in Orlando.
Great day and a lot of fun! My 15 year old son and I had this park planned for a second day after visiting one of the larger themed parks. This park was a nice, relaxing day after spending much of the prior day waiting in lines. There were limited lines on the day we visited and usually were able to get on within 1-3 ride rotations. They have plenty to do and we were able to spend much of the day riding rides multiple times. I would say the park has an overall carnival/fair like feel, but still offer some thrill rides and 4 separate go cart tracks. We loved the old fashioned wooden roller coaster and went 3-4 times. Food and drink options are decent with prices comparable to fast food. They let you leave and return with an unlimited daily bracelet until 12am if you wish to get food elsewhere or take a break and return. With just the two of us, I really liked the free locker/cabinet areas they let you use at each ride for your loose items and soda. We purchased our tickets during an online promotion and it was a great value. We also have additional tickets and are already planning a return to visit to check out the Kissimmee park. It was an absolutely great day filled with time riding rides, not waiting in lines, just don't expect the fanfare or level of excitement of a themed park. All staff were pleasant and Sharon at the front counter was super friendly and helpful.

Although it took a while for them to open the Sky coaster the professionalism there was also exceptional

We had a great family day at Fun Spot! I went with my 4-year-old son, 18-month-old daughter, my wife, and their grandpa. My son had a blast on the rides, even though he couldn’t go on some because of the height limits. My baby girl didn’t have much to do besides hanging out (and occasionally crying) with her grandpa, but the rest of us had plenty of fun, especially on the go-karts! The lines were short for most rides, though the go-karts took about an hour each. The staff were kind and understanding, when my son lost his wristband near the end of the day, the gokart attendants still let him ride with me. That really made his day! We had lunch inside the restaurant. The hamburger wasn’t great and there weren’t many food options, and it would be nice if they added a diaper-changing table for parents with little kids. But overall, it was a fantastic day full of laughter, excitement, and family memories. We’ll definitely come back!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Day Out with Little Ones (and Gators!) I took six kids under 4 to Fun Spot Florida and was absolutely thrilled with how kid-friendly everything was! They have so many rides specifically geared toward little ones—enough to keep all six of them giggling and smiling throughout the day. On top of that, the splash park was a lifesaver in the Florida heat—safe, clean, and an instant favorite. Between rides, we grabbed food from the shaded seating areas with minimal wait times, and it felt so manageable with a big toddler crew. One extra highlight that blew us away? Gator Spot. You actually get a stick with a string and a sardine on the end, and the kids (and adults!) got to feed live alligators up close. It was thrilling, safe, and incredibly memorable—something you don’t often see at family parks. The staff were all so friendly and helpful—I appreciated how attentive and upbeat they were, especially when wrangling six little adventurers. The park layout is compact but well thought-out, never feeling overwhelming or crowded. This was easily one of the best places I’ve taken a group of toddlers. Between the themed kiddie rides, splash zone, tasty food options, and even a real-life gator-feeding activity—we can’t wait to return! 🥰🎢🐊 🌞

1st time ever @ Fun Spot. I took my uncle he has down syndrome and while this place isn’t no Disney, Universal, Seaworld or Six Flags. We still had a blast. The ride operators were extremely nice. I really enjoyed the gator section of the park. The pricing for the refill cups were insanely cheap 18 bucks for 2 refillable cups couldn’t beat that. That’s literally the cost of one refill cup at all these other parks + you gotta pay extra per the day at most of these other parks. Although I do have to say I prefer Coca-Cola over Pepsi. Which this park serves Pepsi. Overall, I’d visit this park again the next time I comeback to Orlando.

Upset i didnt take any photos but we were busy having so much fun. We went the 3rd week of october 2025 and there was little to no wait for the rides. The attendants were very nice and helpful. The roller coaster was the absolute best. We rode it about 10 times. I would’ve given 5 stars but 2 things were a bit upsetting. We came at about 230/3 and the diner attendants/workers were non-existent. It wasn’t busy but all we wanted was a soda with ice and we ended up walking out because no one acknowledge us. The second thing is the go kart attendants. This day they let a few of their friends get on the go karts for free which i didn’t think was right at all as a paying customer. Then our kart broke down on the hill and there wasn’t any compensation for it. All in all we will be back and hope theres improvements.

Discovery Cove is a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of popular Orlando theme parks. This all-inclusive park offers an exclusive opportunity to swim with dolphins, snorkel with thousands of tropical fish at The Grand Reef, and hand-feed exotic birds while learning about them from knowledgeable staff. It's a family-friendly destination where visitors can also enjoy a lazy river, bird feeding, and encounters with rays.
This is a magical place to visit, we did two days here and I do not have one complaint! Let’s start with our Deep Sea Dive that was led by Robert B. who we also met during the shark feeding session.Robert’s energy and passion for his job truly shines when he is talking about the animals or underwater signaling and writing, he truly made the adventure that much better and we hope to get him in the future! The Deep Sea Dive was really neat not only bc you got to see all the fish up close and personal but they also take you over to the shark area and it feels like you are face to face, the Nurse sharks are a thing of beauty when you get to see them close up! Highly recommend you do this add on! The Grand Reef snorkeling was where we spent most of our day, it’s the coolest thing to have all these rays glide by you and your able to touch the top of them ( if you do the deep sea dive you can touch their underside and they are soft!!!!!) The Aviary was an oasis of its own, birds landing on you and flying over head. The sound of waterfalls and mist all around you, it truly feels like a little jungle! The lazy river was nice and long and it was neat how it went through the bird sections and then you go through waterfalls that keep the birds from going through. We didn’t do the Dolphin Experience but after the multiple shows we watched I do think it’s worth the extra money if you are a dolphin lover! Every inch of this park is done up in the jungle oasis theme, no shortcuts were taken! We were amazed by everything. The food was fine, nothing special but definitely not bad as others wrote on their reviews, it’s free so your not getting steak :) Snacks were great for on the go in between areas and stations are everywhere :) We did the 3 park Ultimate pass that included Seaworld(loved) and Bush Gardens in Tampa (did not love, very rude employees) I wish we had time do Aquatica (3rd park) but sadly we didn’t. Everything went smoothly with the pass we received from Discovery Cove, this pass also included our parking for each of the parks. We couldn’t have asked for a more satisfying vacation and we cannot wait to come back and visit Discovery Cove again!!!!

The whole experience was amazing and we will definitely do it again in the future.

Handsdown the best money I’ve ever spent you eat all day drink all day for free comes with the package you can upgrade to different drinks but the standard is good enough. This place goes above and beyond to make sure that the person purchasing the ticket is well accommodated made me feel like a kid again swimming with the dolphins. My favourite part though was snorkel With the sharks stingrays and much more the pictures that we took were hilarious I needed this vacation to pamper my girls so I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. This was freaking amazing. Such a beautiful place

Neat place to go! Compared to our last visit (8 years ago), they have less fish in the reef. We also noticed less photographers. If you get the photo package, I'd suggest doing it only if you do the dolphin swim. Food was decent, parking was free, and price was decent - worth the black Friday sale price.

This place is awesome. I only purchased the base package with none of the add on options and it was still so worth it. I very much enjoyed the swim with the rays and it was less that 1 foot from 8 foot long sharks (a glass barrier separating us). It felt like i was in Hawaii snorkeling. I also loved the all inclusive alcohol, and their Florida beer they had included in the base package was actually very good. I did this as a solo trip and very much enjoyed it. About every 15 to 30 min at different spots they bring out animals and teach you about them, this was very entertaining, like different birds, armadillo, and other little mammals. I would definitely come back here again.

What a great exclusive resort feel! The main attraction are the dolphins. They do make their $ thru the photos they take of you with them. Just be prepared to pay :) They have unlimited food & non alcoholic drinks. They limit the amount of people per day so it doesn’t feel so crowded.

This was the highlight of our family trip. We had so much fun snorkeling with the fish and sting rays. You're able to touch the sting rays. I was also able to experience swimming with the dolphins, which was something on my bucket list. I will say that the picture package for the dolphins is expensive but good pictures. It's awesome that your food and drinks are included in the package. We were also able to feed the birds in the aviary , which was also a great and fun experience. It was a clean environment and they definitely take pride in cleanliness. I would recommend visiting.

Additionally, SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium provides group packages and play areas for families.
I see lots of complaints about it being small. Its not tiny, but its also not sea world, thankfully. It took us over an hour to go thru as 2 adults, I would have walked it twice if i had the extra time, very relaxing. Each tank holds a variety of fish; if you relax and enjoy, you notice. Hang out in front of each tank and the fish will check YOU out as well, very cool experience. If you've been to ripleys in toronto, I like this one better. Also ask the staff about Ted, very cool story!

It's decent enough to kill some time and the kids enjoyed it. It's a little dated and the spaces are kind of cramped if you ever get in there with a large number of other people. Buy you're tickets in advance should you choose to visit. Because of how short the length of the tour is, it would be best to purchase a combo and do the wax museum or other attractions within the location as well

I went with my 2 adult kids and 2 preteen kids. We enjoyed all of the habitats and there were several hands on activities along the way. It's not a very big aquarium but if you take your time and really check out all the animals it can take about an hour to go through it all. In my opinion, I feel that the cost of admission is a bit higher than what it's worth when comparing other aquariums like Ripley's in Gatlinburg and the one at Newport on the Levee. Overall it was something fun to do on a rainy day.

Pros: upon entry, the aquarium looks small, but inside it is huge! The rooms are easy flow. We went in at open and there was very little crowd. The fish look happy and healthy - you will see a large variety separated by area on the globe! Axoltyls, sharks, sea turtles, nori, starfish, jellies, and more! We paid $5 to feed the Nori fish and it was so fun! The facility, including the bathrooms, is clean. Cons: the ladies at the ticket booth and the entrance were rude and disinterested. The touch pool at the end of the aquarium, NEEDS more people supervising. I saw multiple children abuse the anemone and starfish and had to step in myself. This is a cashless facility, which I think is a little insane considering cash is legal tender - I almost didn't buy a ticket as a result.

One star off since they force you to take two pictures as soon as you walk in even if you tell them no. The parking can be tricky. Use the garage and walk (you have to pay 20 dollars if you use the lower level garage). If you have trouble finding the aquarium you can ask an employee working at one of the booths. Go a little early so you have time for all of this. The aquarium itself is great. Bathrooms are located throughout, but the womens were completely out of soap in all dispensers. There is germ ex posted on the walls throughout the aquarium. There are tons of even cooler fish there, but the pictures here are the ones I took. I was too busy watching them all to take pictures of the others (they were great. Especially the huge turtles). They also have options to touch the starfish and some others if you choose to (be careful. The water is cold and they don't warn you.) The gift shop isn't as pricey as I was expecting, but still a little expensive for what the things are.

Fun place to spend the afternoon! It takes about 1.5-2 hours if you look at every exhibit. They do have an underwater tunnel which is super cool! We especially loved the turtles, massive stingrays, and of course, SHARKS! 🦈

This place was a ton of fun, I went during healthcare month and got a free entry. I thought this was very thoughtful for a place to do that for nurses and other hesitate workers. We spent hours here as adults. We are huge ocean enthusiast, divers, and into ecology so if adults can have fun kids will definitely enjoy this aquarium too.
Cassandra B — Google review
I've been to many aquariums around the country, and this one was definitely one of the best. Large tanks with fish and sharks and you can go through them with a tunnel and see them swimming around you. Lots of displays, lots of info, lots of fun photo opportunities for kids. Highly recommend!

Ripley's Believe It or Not! in Orlando is a must-visit museum for those intrigued by the bizarre and extraordinary. The collection features peculiar oddities such as shrunken human heads and rare animal skeletons. Visitors can compare themselves to a replica of the tallest man in the world and explore interactive exhibits showcasing fascinating facts from around the globe. Unlike many other museums, Ripley's stays open until late, making it an excellent nighttime activity in Orlando.
Wow what a super fun Ripley’s! So many different exhibits and experiences. There is absolutely something for everyone. Would highly recommend! The sweetest employees! One surprised us with a photo for our 4th anniversary. 💕truly touched our hearts. Thank you all so much!

Fun for the whole family. Takes a couple of hours depending on who is in your group. My kids are older amd didn't enjoy it as much as they would have at younger ages. It was still a nice change of pace from the big amusement parks.

I have been wanting to check it out since I was a teen but never got around to it. I went with my family at last, and we all had a really fun time. The place is filled with so many quirky, random, and fascinating things, you never know what’s around the corner. It’s the kind of spot where you can laugh, be amazed, and even say “wait, is that real?!” more than once. If you take your time to look at everything, it’s about an hour long experience, which makes it a great way to spend part of the day. For me, it was extra special because it’s something I’ve been curious about for years and finally got to cross off my list. Definitely worth checking out if you enjoy unusual attractions and want something different to do with family or friends!

I took my kids last week and they had such a great time! We arrived later in the day around 7pm and had enough time to go through the museum and do the mirror maze next door. I recommend purchasing tickets online when you get there so you can save money of course! There were a lot of interactive exhibits. My favorite exhibit was the Egyptian Artifacts. My other fave area had interesting facts about criminals and also things that had to do with famous crimes. I took a few pictures but I don’t want to give it all away!! Ps I removed my kids from the pics!
Whitney B — Google review
We had so much fun here! Ripley’s is way bigger inside than it looks, and every room has something wild to look at. The exhibits are super interactive — from the mission control games to the “weird pet” creator — and the kids were locked in the whole time. They have a mix of real fossils, oddities, hands-on screens, and cool art pieces (that giant driftwood sculpture is crazy in person). Everything was clean, easy to walk through, and well labeled so you actually understand what you're looking at. If you’re in Orlando and want something fun, different, and indoors for the family, this is definitely worth a stop. Something for everybody and you’ll take a million pictures.
Danielle P — Google review
Orlando has the most nostalgic venues including Ripley’s believe it or not! Single tickets are a bit overpriced but it is worth it. The location at international drive is easy to find and there is parking available. I recommend this place to fill your appetite with abnormal facts.

Fun and Affordable Family Spot Ripley’s Believe It or Not is always a fun place to visit with the family. It’s a great experience overall and relatively affordable compared to other attractions. There are some really cool exhibits and a few interactive games that kids will enjoy. I’d give it a solid 4 out of 5—definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for something fun and different to do together!

Nature & Parks
Lake Eola Park is a vibrant city centerpiece offering a variety of activities for both visitors and locals. From leisurely walks or jogs around the lake to feeding the diverse waterfowl, there's something for everyone. The park also hosts a Sunday farmer's market and special events, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and entertainment. Additionally, visitors can rent swan-shaped paddleboats to explore the lake.
Did not get to spend the time I wanted to on this trip. When I finally found parking and walked over the first thing I heard was an announcement that lightening had been detected in the area and all swan boats needed to come in. Rats! I wanted to ride the swan boat. I have seen the devastation lightening does and I want no part of it. None. I snapped a few pictures and left but have plans to go back in two weeks and will write a more detailed review on my experience. The little I did get to see, I liked a lot. People walking their dogs, people walking holding hands, ducks and swans walking and swimming. Very pretty setting. Nice big trees to keep you cool in the heat (or to be struck by lightning, yikes!) Swan boats are $15 for 30 minutes (that’s a bargain). Must be rented 30 minutes before they close at 7:00 p.m. Parking was a challenge. Maybe I missed a parking lot but do not park where you shouldn’t or you will be fined. I’ll pass on that. More to come.

Lake Eola is one of those spots you gotta check out if you’re in downtown Orlando. The walk around the lake is just over a mile which is perfect for a quick jog, walk, or even just clearing your head. The fountain in the middle lights up beautifully at night, and if you’re feeling a little adventurous, you can rent one of the swan boats and cruise the lake for a different view of the city. Sundays are extra special with the farmer’s market with tons of local food, vendors, and chill vibes. You’ll find a Publix right across the street if you need a quick snack or drink, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby, from pizza and burgers to more upscale spots. Whether you’re walking the dog, getting a morning run in, or just looking for some peace in the middle of downtown, so this is the place. Definitely worth the stop.

First time and I must say it was a really nice experience. From the different small business stands to the bomb coffee and bomb food. The swans were so pretty. This is a nice market to visit for sure. I had thirsty husky coffee must try! & egg dos :) nice nature walk around lake as well. Dog friendly . If you havent been you must go!

I recently moved to downtown Orlando and Lake Eola Park has quickly become one of my favorite spots. The park has such a beautiful view, especially at night when everything is lit up it feels magical. There’s a nice trail to walk or jog around, with plenty of benches to sit and relax. I love watching all the ducks, swans, and wildlife, it makes the park feel so peaceful at the same time it’s the perfect place to clear your head, enjoy nature, or just take in the scenery. Definitely one of Orlando’s gems!

Want to go for a walk so after getting boba tea at Raretea. Walk over to Lake Eola for a stroll 🚶🏻‍♀️. Beautiful scenery with lot of 🦢 , 🦆 and even 🐢. Just be on the look out for they 💩 😝. The building was majestic under the bathing sun. Definitely a nice place to hangout. Too bad we didn’t see any 🦢/🦆 paddles ride. Hopefully next time we come back I get to ride it. The only downside to this park is the parking. Very limited unless you pay for parking. So if you do go. Go early 😆

The park offers a remarkable experience, enhanced by the presence of diverse birdlife. Visitors can enjoy running, walking, and sightseeing, complemented by ambient music. The park occasionally hosts Sunday morning activities, including various booths, which are highly recommended. Furthermore, the swan boat rides, accommodating two individuals, provide a memorable experience. The park's ample shade minimizes sun exposure, making it an enjoyable destination for couples and individuals alike.

Water & Amusement Parks
Universal Islands of Adventure is a top destination for thrill-seekers and fans of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The park features iconic attractions like Hogwarts Castle in the Wizarding World's Hogsmeade, family-friendly areas like Seuss Landing, and classic rides such as Jurassic Park. Visitors can experience innovative thrills on Spiderman and Skull Island: Reign of Kong. One standout attraction is Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, offering a unique story coaster experience.
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! This is the BEST amusement park we’ve been to in the USA so far and we highly recommend it! We bought regular admission tickets and managed to get on every ride we wanted to with minimal wait times (except Hargrid’s Motorbike - which we expected to wait an hour for that and it was WELL worth the wait). The velocicoaster was THE BEST in the park. Unbelievable ride - so fast and such great views. The Hulk was awesome, along with the Spider man ride, and the Jurassic park River ride. Harry Potter world was my absolute favorite. I’m a super fan and have been my whole life so this was a dream come true to visit this park! The castle was so beautifully designed along with Hogsmeade village. My daughter got a once in a lifetime experience at Olivander’s wand shop and was the chosen one during one of their shows. Such an amazing core memory for all of us. The butter beer was DEADLY - we had 4 of them by the end of the afternoon 😂 Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride was PHENOMENAL. What a great way to use both VR and real life props to bring the world to life. Walking through the castle to get to the ride was so cool - the talking portraits were amazing and they really brought the world to life throughout the entire walk and ride. Cannot say enough great things about this park. We would absolutely return if we go back to visit the parks down there again!

We flew across the country to go to Universal. We went to Islands of Adventure the first day and Epic today. It was me and my husband and I thought we had prepped for a great kid-free trip. The park is visually stunning. It's clean and there are plenty of staff members to help with your every need. I also appreciate that they have covered/cool areas to stand under in line - that is thoughtful. The lines are absolutely ridiculous. 4 1/2 hour wait for the Harry Potter ride. We were in the park for over 5 hours and rode two rides. The two with the shortest wait times were the Frankenstein ride and the Warewolf coaster - both disappointments - which is probably why the lines were so short. While I now understand why people are forced to spend 2-5 days at the parks - it now makes sense that is the only way you can wait to go to your can't miss rides. I wish I would've just skipped this park and spent a second day at IOA, at least there are 2 great coasters there. It was a complete waste of money and a bummer that they close earlier when it happens to rain most of the afternoon and the rides are delayed due to weather.

What an awesome experience! The best park in Orlando I must say. Lots of different attractions to go, and auch incredible worlds and atmosphere created. Including Harry Potter, Jurrasic Park, Marvel, etc. Any fan of roller-coasters will have a blast. Favourite ride for me was Velocicoaster hands down. Enjoy
Francisco F — Google review
Out of the Universal parks in Orlando, Islands of Adventure still has the most fun stuff to do. That being said, the wait times, especially for the new Harry Potter ride (hagrid's magical creatures motorbike adventure) are UNBELIEVABLY long. My friend and I thought coming here on a Wednesday in October (during the school year) would mean shorter lines, but every roller coaster had a minimum 1 hour wait. We didn't go on the Hagrid's ride because the estimated wait time was 240 mins... Yes, that's right. 4 HOURS! How can they sell so many tickets that every ride can have such a ridiculously long wait? All the rides we made it onto were fun, but you can't help but ask yourself if a few minutes of fun is worth hours of waiting around uncomfortably in the Florida heat and humidity with no A/C, limited shade, and nowhere to sit. Not to mention how expensive the tickets are now. Plus the food and merchandise costs. I'm struggling to understand why this is fun. The only way you can actually enjoy this park is to buy the express pass. Which, again, is crazy expensive. But without it, you might as well be throwing the ticket money into the trash.
Jessica M — Google review
We rope dropped because we were doing both Islands of Adventure & universal studios (which I recommend getting the park hopper pass so you can ride the Hogwarts express). Hogsmead is so adorable and a dream come true as a Harry Potter fan. The rides were amazing. I recommend getting express passes if you can. It definitely beats waiting in line and using your valuable park time doing things you enjoy.
Allison R — Google review
Islands of adventure was great. We decided to do this for a one day ticket and leave universal studios Florida and epic universe out… we couldn’t recommend it more. The wait times were ok… but overall fine. It didn’t ruin the experience and we went during a busy time. Best part overall. The Velocicoaster in Jurassic World park. Best roller coaster I’ve ever been on. Food was ok… for theme park food was alright.
David M — Google review
Very nice looking park. The number of rides is not that large, but there are some very good ones there. Hagrid's and Velocicoaster are the top two. You should also check out Spider-Man, River Adventure and possibly the other Harry Potter ride, but that was down during our visit. Plenty of food options too.
Brendan K — Google review
Great theme park, visited on a Tuesday with a 9am-7pm opening, got all the rides done in a day and got to do some twice. Waits not to long, 20-30mins max on most except Hagrids Magical Creatures Motorbike adventure, with 80mins posted as a minimum. The VelociCoaster is the best roller coaster I have ridden across the Disney, Universal theme parks in USA. Wear a poncho (and shoe covers) on Popeyes Bilge Rat Barge you will get soaked and Ripsaw Falls will drench you.

ICON Park is a large entertainment complex featuring an observation wheel, an aquarium, and a wax museum. The Orlando Eye, a 400-foot observation wheel located at ICON Park, offers stunning panoramic views of Orlando and its surroundings. The ride takes about 18 minutes and provides breathtaking vistas of natural lakes like Big Sandlake and Little Sandlake, as well as iconic landmarks such as Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando.
Really enjoyed ICON Park! It’s got such a great atmosphere — lots of restaurants, things to do, and people just out having fun. The Wheel was awesome, especially at sunset, and the whole area felt super clean and safe. Perfect place to relax, walk around, and enjoy a nice evening in Orlando.

ICON Park is one of the most beautiful and vibrant spots in Orlando! We came here in the evening when all the lights were on — it looked absolutely magical. 🎡 The huge observation wheel with colorful lights is stunning, especially at sunset and at night. The view from the top is breathtaking — you can see the whole city! The area is very clean and well-maintained, with lots of cafes, restaurants, and cozy places to walk around. The music, palm trees, and friendly atmosphere make it feel like a holiday. Everything is well organized and there’s plenty of parking nearby. We visited on a weekend, and there were almost no lines — everything went smoothly. It’s a perfect place to spend an evening, take beautiful photos, and enjoy the Orlando vibe. 💫 We’ll definitely come back again!

Very nice park to just to get away. Plenty of places to eat and shop. The ferris wheel is humongous! Unfortunately when I was there it wasn't working. The sling shot ride which I've seen on YouTube, I was super excited to see in person, however the price to ride was ridiculously high! $40 a person for me was a little steep! The swinging swing set ride was pretty cool as well but I didn't have the nerves to ride it! LOL.

Great place to spend a few hours with family or friends! Plenty of activities including food shops and restaurants, great air conditioning inside, lots of seating, shopping, a medium sized arcade, the large Ferris wheel, a small children’s pull train and the aquarium was a decent size to walk through. Everything was moderately priced. 10/10 would recommend.

The Orlando Museum of Art offers a diverse and captivating experience for art enthusiasts. The museum showcases a wide array of exhibits, ranging from modern American graphics to African artifacts, creating a contemporary and thought-provoking atmosphere. With over 40,000 pieces in its collection, the museum features everything from ancient relics to avant-garde contemporary works by renowned American artists. Visitors can immerse themselves in workshops and classes offered by the museum, adding an interactive element to their visit.
Fantastic museum! It's not large, really just a handful of artists at this time, and mostly fiber arts right now - yarn, paper, rope - but on a BIG scale. I really loved discovering Kandy G Lopez through this collection, I think her work is phenomenal. Highly recommend checking this museum out.

One of my absolute favorite places in Orlando! The Orlando Museum of Art is such a beautiful, inspiring space — every visit feels special. The company I work for sponsors a Christmas tree each year for their holiday event, and it has become one of our most cherished traditions. We love brainstorming the concept together and decorating as a team, and it’s so much fun seeing our tree displayed among all the incredible art (and alongside the other stunning trees!). If you’re looking for a museum that blends creativity, community, and a truly welcoming atmosphere, OMA is the place. Highly recommend!

From an architectural perspective, the Orlando Museum of Contemporary Art feels like a building from the 1960s or 1970s. The structure is small and modest, and while functional, it lacks the distinctive presence or innovation one might expect from a major contemporary art venue. The layout and scenography are straightforward and simple, making it possible to explore the entire space in about twenty minutes with a quick walkthrough. The variety of exhibitions is fairly standard, offering a decent introduction to contemporary art but without the visual richness or curatorial depth you might find at larger institutions such as MoMA in New York. For families, the museum offers a package ticket for $45 for up to five people, which is a practical option for a casual cultural outing. Crowds are minimal, which adds to the comfort of the visit, but the museum would greatly benefit from diversifying and refreshing its exhibitions to create a more distinctive and memorable identity worthy of Orlando’s name. As it stands, it is a pleasant but not exceptional experience.

Universal Orlando Resort is a renowned theme park that offers movie-themed rides, shows, hotels, and restaurants. The resort's Islands of Adventure park set a new standard for immersive experiences with the opening of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter Hogsmeade. Catering more to teens and young adults, Universal provides a grown-up ambiance.
Had massive fun. Lots of games, rides, food, cartoon characters. The list of things to do goes on and on. It was very sunny and humid though. But, that is nature. Perfect location for every member of the family. The lines were not too crazy, except for some of the adventures. Had a great time, and so did my little girls too.

We stayed at Universal Orlando Resort for three nights and four days, and for being the budget-friendly option of this hotel chain, I can honestly say it was a great experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, offering exactly what you need to relax after a full day at the parks. One highlight is the included shuttle service that takes you directly to the parks and brings you back to the hotel. It’s a super convenient and truly necessary perk to make the most of your stay without any hassle. This was our second time choosing this place for our vacation, and once again, we really enjoyed it. We’ll definitely be back.

The food options were delicious and loved that the coke freestyle station around the park and the popcorn refillable station too. I loved the Wicked display and got to see actual props from the movie. Can't wait to go back again.

Welcome to « Delay » universe ! We came from France to spend a week in Orlando, our whole vacation has been organised around our visit to this Park … What a huge disappointment ! First, I think this Park was definitely not ready for opening. As soon as you step into an attraction, you know you have a 50% chance it will break, waiting for hours in a line with no access at the end…. We came at early entry as we were staying on site and mariokart ride was delayed the full hour while we were on the line : we lost all benefits of the early entry. Second, there were even attractions that did not open during the full day !!! For example the Untrainable dragon show. After we made this whole trip for France and being a huge fan of this franchise, I can’t tell you how we were disappointed to not see it. The worst thing is that we spent our day coming back in front of the show, waiting on the Line 10 to 30mn, so that the show would be announced as cancelled ! Third, the staff… I know we can’t expect Disney service everywhere, but I never saw such sad and disrespectful employees in a while. Expect no guest service here, they feel so distressed by all the delays and cancellations and not sure they’re Happy to work here. In conclusion, we expected so much from this new Park and made a trip from France for this, and we have never been disappointed at this level.. 120 to 240 waiting times, and even with express passes, you find yourself stuck in mines 60mn+ with all delays and cancellations happening. For the massive Price we paid, we even did not see the biggest show on the Park as it has been cancelled all day 😩😭😭 we are now coming back to Europe and will never have the Opportunity to see it …Thank you Universal to have ruined our vacation.

Always an awesome experience in Islands of Adventures. I love coming during mid November because of the weather and the lines are not long. We went on Nov 22 and most of the wait times were between 15-25 min. The only long one was Hagrid's ride that took 2 hrs for us. My suggestion is to get there between 12-1pm. By that time the lines have gone down a lot and ppl are eating their lunch. Park was open till 8pm and we got on almost everything except for 2 of the rides that wet you. I love to see a smile on my girl's face every time we go 🙂

We had a very good time. It was a very good experience. My children got to see the Christmas parade and that made my daughter's day also. The rides were amazing definitely going back. Went there years ago and it's still as good now as it was then probably even better

Beautifully made park. It's visually incredible. Especially the Harry Potter Diagon Alley. Looks as close to being transported to another world as possible. Most of the rides are simulators, but still impressive.

Water & Amusement Parks
Universal Studios Florida is a sprawling amusement park in Orlando that offers an immersive experience into the world of Hollywood entertainment. The park features movie-themed rides, attractions, and entertainment that cater to visitors of all ages. From family-friendly adventures like Despicable Minion Mayhem to high-speed coasters like Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit and Revenge of the Mummy, there's something for everyone.
Visiting Universal Studios Florida was one of the most unforgettable experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment you walk through the gates, you can feel the energy, excitement, and attention to detail everywhere. The park is spotless, beautifully maintained, and full of amazing attractions for every age and taste. The rides are absolutely incredible — especially The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which truly feels like stepping into another world. Every corner is so perfectly designed that you can’t help but be amazed. The Jurassic World VelociCoaster and Revenge of the Mummy are must-try attractions for thrill-seekers — fast, intense, and full of surprises. For something a bit more relaxed, the Minions and Simpsons areas are super fun and full of great photo spots. What really stood out to me was how friendly and professional the staff are. Everyone was smiling, helpful, and clearly happy to be there, which made the whole experience even better. The park also has plenty of food options, from quick snacks to full meals, and everything we tried was delicious. Prices are what you’d expect for a theme park, but the quality makes it worth it. I also loved how organized everything was — the lines move quickly, the mobile app helps a lot to plan your day, and the whole park feels safe and well managed. You can really tell they think of every little detail to make sure visitors have a great time. Universal Studios Florida is more than just a theme park — it’s a world of fun, fantasy, and pure joy. Whether you go with friends, family, or even on your own, you’ll have an amazing time. I can’t wait to go back!

Universal Studios Orlando was an unforgettable experience! One of the highlights of our visit was taking the Hogwarts Express between the two parks — not only was it convenient, but it also felt like we were truly part of the Wizarding World. The level of detail and storytelling on that ride alone was incredible. But hands down, my favorite attraction was Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts. From the moment you step into the Gringotts Bank, you’re completely immersed in the world of Harry Potter. The animatronic goblins, the massive chandelier, the underground vaults — everything was so well designed, it honestly felt like we were in the movie. The ride itself was thrilling, and the entire experience had us in awe from start to finish. We also spent a lot of time wandering through Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade, both packed with amazing details and great photo ops. The theming is next-level — from the moving portraits and magical shop windows to the sound effects and music, everything was spot on. We couldn’t leave without picking up a ton of souvenirs from the gift shops — wands, house scarves, chocolate frogs, and other fun Harry Potter merchandise for the whole family. If you're a Harry Potter fan, this is a must-visit. Even if you're not, the creativity, immersion, and overall fun at Universal are more than enough to make it an incredible day.

I’ve visited the Universal resort multiple times and have always come away with incredible memories. Parking is always easy enough and the walkways to CityWalk are well marshalled/sign posted. Wait times for rides massively vary based on time of day and public holidays (I recommend an early start and going as far from the entrance of each park, then working your way back). You can get lightening passes but it does expensive for a group. There’s plenty of live shows and character meet and greets, some highlights for me being meeting the Transformers and watching The Blues Brothers perform. The jewel in the crown is undoubtedly ’Harry Potter’, such a magical experience for little ones, there’s two sections spread across Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, connected by a Hogwarts express. The Simpsons ‘Springfield’ is really fun too, I enjoyed a pint of Duff in Moe’s. The facilities are generally really good, you’re never far from food/drink and you can avoid long waits by using the app (be sure to try a giant Turkey Leg… yummy!). The parks are kept clean. I recommend the nighttime show, which includes fireworks, a drone and fountain display with characters and music from Universal movies such as Back To The Future, Jaws, Jurassic Park, Transformers, Ghostbusters and Harry Potter.

It was awesome, did the day pass for the day and the Halloween horror night for the evening. It really wasn't as busy as what I was thinking and what I've always heard from people. Got on the attractions fairly quickly without having to have a fast pass the park was nice and clean and actually people were pretty well behaved . Definitely will be going back with more of an extended stay and explore the other parks
James M — Google review
I’ve been to Universal numerous times now and each time is a blast, always leaving with new memories. Best part is Harry Potter, the details they put into creating the theme park is incredible & very nostalgic for me. From someone who watches the movies every year around the holidays and then being able to step into the wizarding world myself is magical! TIP: Take a family picture somewhere in the wizarding world and have the live option on, then go into the settings for that picture and put it on a loop - now it’s a moving picture, just like how the pictures are done in Harry Potter! Overall, expensive park but completely worth it if haven’t you been!
Bethany — Google review
I had a fantastic time a Universal! My only complaint would be that every single ride sprays you with water. I want to know what study was done or who decided that to make a simulator ride more immersive you need to have the ride sneeze on the riders. But whoever did, I have some questions for. Jokes aside, the attention to detail of the different themed sections are unreal. I thoroughly enjoyed exploring the entire park. My crew got through about 21 different rides/experiences staying from open till close. We definitely got lucky with the crowds our day and of course waited 105 minutes for Hagrid’s magical creature ride. But overall, so much fun!

Fun place to visit. I took a lot of pictures throughout on my own. There are models of superheroes, movie actors, singers, and sports players. It was a long passage of models, so you definitely get your money's worth. I just wish there was more to it. It's a tunnel of a lot of models, but it would be nice to see more, or maybe get a deeper history lesson on the particular models. Still a fun place to stop if you get the chance. I got in for free with my teacher's Merlin pass, so look at your options before you pay the full price. Kids will enjoy coming here and seeing the models.

If I am honest, my husband and I had no desire to go into this museum. However, we were killing time before our SeaLife visit and had free tickets so decided to fill the gap. We were both shocked at how much we actually enjoyed it. We thought it would be more targeted towards kids, but it wasn’t. It was very interactive and you could get your picture taken with the characters, available for purchase through the museum. The details of the characters were insane, while some were better than others. The staff throughout the museum were all very friendly as well. I would recommend.

Located in Central Florida, the Orlando Watersports Complex is a popular destination for water sports enthusiasts. It offers a wide range of activities including wakeboarding, water skiing, wakeskating, kneeboarding, and tubing. The complex provides rentals and lessons for all skill levels on its water sports course. Additionally, visitors can enjoy an inflatable structure with Wipeout and Ninja Warrior-style obstacles. For families with young children, there's an Aquapark featuring climbing obstacles and slides inspired by LEGO designs.
This was a great way to spend a couple of hours! It was my first time at a cable park but I do have experience wakeboarding, so getting up was no problem. If you don’t need lessons you can buy a pass for 2 hours and equipment is included. The instructor operating the cable park was giving good advice tailored to everyone using the course, although there was only a few of us on a Monday afternoon. If you have friends or family that don’t wakeboard there’s also a cool water park set up with giant inflated slides etc, and lots of outdoor seating available. Everyone was really friendly and relaxed. I enjoyed feeling like I was at friend’s lake house and not a restrictive corporate tourist trap. I’ll be back on future trips.

I absolutely love this cable park! My husband and I have been to all of the cable parks in Florida, and this is definitely one of my favorites! It is really well run, and I appreciate how they are always open rain or shine, and communicate very well when they’re not. It is the best run cable park that I’ve ever been to by far. All of the staff is so nice and encouraging. The vibes are great!

I've been coming here for the past 10 years and finally decided it's time to leave a review. Over the years, they've continued to improve the experience, and it really shows. I love the water spouts along the platforms—such a smart way to keep your feet cool under the hot sun! I recently brought some friends on a weekday, and we had an blast. No wait time at all, and the staff—from the receptionist to the operators—were incredibly friendly and helpful. It’s always great to see a place maintain high standards. Definitely planning to come back again soon!

My kids had fun today despite the storm that came earlier than we expected and stayed around. This activity is expensive but my kids look forward to coming to Orlando Watersports after our yearly end of season AAU Volleyball tournament. The staff was friendly and helpful and closed quick when needed for lightning and opened back up when the storm moved away so that we could get back on the water even though it was raining. We wanted to do the new surfing experience but the weather did make that not work out for us as the storm lasted longer than expected but we look forward to trying it out on our next trip.

Our boys had such a blast and the staff was so incredibly friendly! From our check in all the way to our check out everything was a breeze. Our instructor Tray was amazing and made the boys feel at ease. Needless to say by their second turn they were asking to go higher and faster! Can’t wait to go back! Thank you iFLY Orlando!

This was a field trip for our homeschool group. What an amazing experience. The demonstration was awesome, the STEM class was fun, and of course, flying was incredible. The ages ranged from 4- 35. Was a great experience for all. The kids loved it so much we purchased flights for another day.

Perfect for families, couples, and groups of friends. Totally worth it!

1 min of soaring at $35+ (cheapest deal with a summer saver online) and you get 2 rides for about $70. They try their best to selll you a high ride and more rides when you show up. But if you are a first time flyer, you may not like the experience hence my recommendation is not to take it. I wish they had a 15 sec trial run to give you a feel of the experience. The first ride pretty much went in trying getting used to th me posture and other things. And it was only the second ride that you we could enjoy. Terrible disappointment with this aspect hence the low rating Other that that the ibstructir was friendly. Overall a good experience, pro labor kit returning because this is not for us.

Water & Amusement Parks
Aquatica Orlando, nestled within the SeaWorld grounds, is a sprawling water park that offers an array of aquatic attractions for visitors of all ages. With 42 slides, rivers, and lagoons spread across 59 acres, it stands as one of Florida's largest water parks. The park's thematic design reflects the southern Pacific region and features body slides, raft slides, lazy rivers, wave pools, and splash zones for kids.
My review is for the premium Cabana we rented today, which was between the two wave pools. The Perfect location to the beach, food, bathrooms and very private. We had cabana # 1 and it has a locker which fits two backpacks, and towels. Nice wicker seating with two lounge chairs outside. Can fit four comfortably. Victor showed us to our cabana and was very nice. Pictures enclosed of the set up and walking out to the wave pools. We ordered food which came in one hour and was delivered hot. The waters included were a plus, and taking a break in the quiet area was worth the money. My only comments on rides would be they need more help on the tube ride. Secondly, wasps were taking over the soda machine area and nobody who worked there did anything as people struggled. A super fun day for my husband, older teen and myself. Tip: bring flip flops to store in the cubby by rides as the ground gets very hot and burns mid day.

Went tonight 11/21/2025 to ILLUMINATE an after hours event at Aquatica and had fun but was also a bit disappointed that everything costs extra once inside. S'mores kit like 8 dollars, train ride 5 dollars each it adds up. The lights were awesome and the dream station is great just don't forget to turn your cell phone off when you're seeing the wizard or you'll get in wizard trouble. Lol. The big man himself is there on vacation so make sure to stop and see him before he has to head to the North Pole. There are stations for the kids and lots of photo opportunities. Overall I give it an 8/10

WOW Aquatica! This is a hidden gem, beautiful, and admission is $40 the grounds are well kept and there’s quite a few rides! All the tubes, mats, and chairs are in new, clean condition, lots of shade and umbrellas throughout the park, friendly knowledgeable staff. I do also have a couple recommendations and intel, first small lockers are $30, so buying a high quality waterproof phone bag is recommended they are $40 here or $10 at Walmart (Body Glove) because your phone is your ticket. Also no coolers or outside food or drinks are allowed, however you can find water cups throughout the park or at the bars, theirs a water button on every soda machine. Also parking is $30 so if you’re staying close Uber may be cheaper. Lastly if you’re planning on coming at opening 10am on the weekends I recommend coming from the Double Tree Orlando way, the left turn light allows you to get in faster than the right. Hope this was helpful to you and your family! Have a great fun day!
Professional G — Google review
I was NOT impressed. First of all, I got a ticket for ~$45, which I thought was pretty good, but then parking is$42.50, and the smallest locker is $35! So just walking in the door, I was up $122.50, much more expensive than a Disney water park, which is much nicer, has free parking, and lockers only cost $10. One nice thing is that the park opens at 9, and there are arguably more slides that a solo rider can do. But all the slides don't open at 9, I had to come back round to the toilet-bowl projector slides (which are SO HOT - temperature wise) and the lazy river, which doesn't open until 10, and opens with a big line when it does. Speaking of the lazy river, it's so short! You do float by the commerson's dolphin tank and a scuzzy fish tank, but it's pretty crowded from the get-go. I liked the rapids river a good bit better. The body slide through the dolphin tank is kinda neither here nor there - the clear tube is so scummy with algae - which is intentional, there are signs about it - that even if a dolphin happened to swim by the exact moment you pass, you'd hardly be able to see it. After Typhoon Lagoon the two wave pools look very gentle. And overall, the water is really tepid everywhere. I don't know if other parks cool their water any, but it was noticeably not refreshing to be in the water at this park. Also, unlike the Disney parks, if you are a single rider, they aren't going to try to put you with people on the three raft rides, you just can't ride those. By arriving early, I easily got through the entire park before lunch and I was pretty determined to not give them any more money, so I left before noon. I'm pretty sure every other water park in the area is better than this one. It's clean, but there's a lot that could be rehabbed - like the colorful tubes over the lazy river, many of them are deflated and in one spot they're falling down over the water. I felt like I paid a lot for a little here.

We visited the park as a family with kids (ages 4 and 6), and I can highly recommend it! It’s best to book tickets online in advance to avoid waiting at the entrance. The park itself is huge, so I suggest arriving early to make the most of the day. It’s perfect for younger kids, with an entire area full of playgrounds and activities, plus a few tube slides – the kids had the best time running around and enjoying every moment! We didn’t manage to see everything, but we definitely hope to come back again!

Amazing Family Fun at the Aquatic Orlando Water Park! I recently had the pleasure of visiting a fantastic Aquatic Orlando water park that truly lives up to its reputation! From the moment we arrived, it was clear to see why the lines can get busy—there's something for everyone here! I highly recommend buying your tickets online for a smooth entry, allowing you to skip the lines and dive right into the fun. This water park offers attractions for all ages, from toddlers to adults. The lazy river was a highlight, as it seemed like everyone was enjoying a relaxing float. It was wonderful to see my toddler safely playing in the designated area, making new friends while splashing around. The water levels were perfect, and older kids had a blast on the various water rides, too! Life jackets are available throughout the park, which is great for parents who want to ensure their kids are safe while enjoying the rides. Additionally, the park has a variety of food options, including fries, chicken —perfect for refueling after all the excitement! I didn't bother renting a Cabana or a chair since our kids range in different ages. We needed to be close enough to see them. Plus I feel it's a waste of money. You didn't come to a water park to sit down. One of the standout features for my family was the wave pools. The waves were thrilling for both kids and adults, and it was fun to watch my children bounce around in the water. The wave action alternates between calm and energetic, giving everyone a chance to have fun in a safe environment. We managed to visit the park twice during our trip because we purchased passes in advance, saving us both time and money. Florida has so much to offer beyond Disney, and these passes made our experience even better, allowing us to enjoy the park without the hassle of long wait times. The overall layout of the park is very family-friendly. The locker rentals are reasonably priced, which is helpful for storing belongings while you enjoy the day. Despite a few rain showers, we made the most of our visit and had a fantastic time. If you're planning a trip, I recommend arriving early to maximize your day. By the afternoon, the kids were happily exhausted from all the fun! Overall, this water park deserves a solid four stars! It’s a wonderful place for families to create lasting memories. So, gear up, grab your tickets, and get ready for a day full of adventure!

Fun place but had a lot of water slides closed and had the longest waits for lines I ever seen for a water park. I've been to 10 water parks and this is the only one that doesn't allow go pro cameras attached to a wrist strap on a water slide. People who work for Adventure Island, Busch Gardens, Disney and Universal are much nicer than the people that work here. Some of the water slides here look a little dated and some have been closed so long there's algae growing on it.

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the tragic story of the Titanic at "Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition." This museum showcases over 300 original artifacts recovered from the wreck site, along with full-scale room recreations and costumed actors that bring history to life. Upon entry, guests receive a replica boarding pass and embark on a chronological journey through the ship's life.
Every room felt like a different part of the ship, and the atmosphere was so nostalgic and detailed. I loved reading about the passengers and seeing all the original artifacts—it really brings history to life. This is such a fun and different activity to do in Orlando, especially if you’re looking for something beyond the usual theme parks. I truly enjoyed every minute of it and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

So fun. I love titanic and learning all about it so I loved the experience. Student discount price. Went on a Thursday and u was the only guest there. There were some workers walking around dressed up as passengers and in character so that was so fun. So many artifacts to look at. Layout was so fun with recreated rooms. Could take pictures except in front of the staircase where there was a photographer to capture a photo but it normally costs money. I was able to get a free photo by signing up for the app. Fun little gift shop at the end too!

To think that so many people thought so highly of It's grandeur without one shadow of doubt in their minds. To put so much trust in man-made ships in that era was mind boggling to witness 2nd hand. This exhibit immerses you in the experience. You walk in and are handed a boarding pass which has an actual passenger name and details. Make sure you take the time to see what became of them. (Whether they survived or not). It was neat to bear witness to preserved artifacts and replicas of certain aspects of the ship. To see and feel an inkling of what those passengers experienced is a must! The difference in not only the service they received but the materials used in the different traveling classes and levels was crazy! The food menus, the China, even the flooring and tile. Can you imagine not having a bathroom in your cabin? Hop aboard the Titanic in Orlando and just get a small glimpse of what daily life was like in that time frame!

Very nice museum with plenty of history and artifacts for a tragic time. Would be great to know in advance of special events where the museum is closed to the public, purchased tickets online and arrived same day only to find out we had to wait 2 hrs for the private tour to complete. Not everyone can manage unexpected changes like that.

The exhibit was amazing. There are so many real pieces from the Titanic plus numerous other artifacts of relevance from sister ships. You also get assigned a real passenger (card with their info) before you explore to see if you (the real person) survived the tragedy.

Universal CityWalk Orlando is a vibrant attraction within the Universal Orlando Resort, offering an array of entertainment options for visitors. The complex features a diverse range of restaurants, shops, and family-friendly shows. From themed games like Great Movie Escape to clubs, cinemas, and mini-golf, there's something for everyone. Indulge in outrageous milkshakes and desserts at The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium or savor sushi-burger fusion at The Cowfish.
This experience was completely unexpected, the characters of the story of the chocolate emporium visited our table and the performance was absolutely delightful! The food was great, the milkshakes were amazing! Just a very fun and unique experience! I highly recommend! (Sorry forgot to take pictures of the food we ate too quickly!)

I had such a great time walking around Universal CityWalk with my fiancée! The atmosphere was incredible — full of music, lights, and energy. We stopped for some Voodoo Doughnuts, and they were amazing! Everything about the place just felt fun and welcoming. There are so many great restaurants and shops to explore, and everything is super clean and well-kept. It was the perfect mix of excitement and relaxation — we’ll definitely be coming back again soon!

I'm pretty sure anything you want to eat can be found here. Surprisingly the prices are on par with restaurants outside of the resort area. Atleast they are compared to NY and NJ. It looks incredible too. Especially when the sun goes down and the lights come on. The mini golf course is impressive though that was expensive.

Nice place to visit, but a bit smaller and more crowded than expected. Compared to Disney Springs, Universal CityWalk feels tighter and busier, especially in the evening. The atmosphere is lively, and there are plenty of restaurants and entertainment options, but the paid parking was a bit disappointing — it takes away from the experience. Overall, it’s still a fun spot to spend a few hours, just be ready for the crowds and the parking fee

Tibet-Butler Nature Preserve is a 440-acre wildlife sanctuary in Orlando, offering gentle interpretive trails through various habitats. Families can enjoy the serene natural surroundings and spot diverse animals along the paths. The on-site nature center features educational exhibits, a butterfly garden, and a tortoise sanctuary.
This is a great local park. It’s close enough to get to quickly, but big enough to get you away from most of the hectic city life. There are a limited number of trails, but very diverse in the vegetation you’ll experience - pines, palms, cypress and other plants. The trails are mostly dirt and grass, but one trail is actually sand! There is a nice conservation center and you will usually see one or more large tortoises. It’s a great way to spend an hour or two (or more) to get some exercise, commune with nature, or just sit and relax. I’ve been here a few times since it is so convenient and I highly recommend it for individuals or families alike.

This is a most shaded, well marked, maintained trail free of entrance, with full restrooms & water refill stations. hidden right in the middle of Orlando’s theme parks It offering an educational program costs $2 for wildlife & vegetarian right next to the entryway. As 08/17/25 partially trail are closed. I looped the 3 miles trail a few times it still doesn’t get boring, trails are a mix of grass, sand, dirt, & the elevation is about 9 feet, in a 100 degree heat relatively an easy hike. I had an amazing time with the weather gave me everything from sunshine to clouds then heavy rain that started pouring just as I reached the gate.

Tibet-Butler Nature Preserve has beautiful trails, and a lovely education center. The trails are well maintained, with maps and directions readily available. Paper maps are available to carry with you, and posted signs tell you which direction will take you to which trail. It is easy for the trails to muddy due to rain, and can several days before they dry completely so be mindful of the weather and your footwear. There isn’t much room on either side of the path to step around the puddles should you visit on a muddy day. No shop on premises with water or snacks, but the public restrooms have a water fountain and water bottle refill station. There is a little free library in the picnic area, along with a sandbox for the kids.

Bring water on your hike and take a break at the Osprey overlook.

Welcome to a slice of nature buried in the middle of the suburbs. My son and I just got back from this Preserve and I have to say, it was gorgeous. First you have the welcome center that has all kinds of educational material inside include two adolescent alligators. You can learn about the songs of frogs and what happens when lightning hits a forest. There is a tortoise and gopher turtle that live at the center. Then you embark on your journey on the hiking trails. Get a map and take lots of photos. It was cool and shaded on most trails and they have a water bottle refill station.

Coming from New England, I didn't think to bring bug spray in November. My dumb butt got bitten about 10 times!

Nestled in the heart of downtown Orlando, the Orange County Regional History Center is a captivating 5-story museum that invites visitors to explore Central Florida's rich and diverse history. Housed in a beautifully restored historic courthouse, this Smithsonian-affiliated gem offers an engaging journey through time, showcasing everything from prehistoric eras to modern-day life. With interactive exhibits designed for all ages and detailed dioramas illustrating daily life throughout the years, it’s an ideal spot for families looking to learn while having fun.
A gem of a museum in the heart of downtown Orlando! This museum was converted from the old courthouse and boats a small but incredibly well-done set of displays about local history, from the first people groups to recent developments of Orlando and the state of Florida. Admission was 8 dollars and well worth it - both for the experience and for preserving the museum. The facilities were organized, clean, and easy to navigate. The displays were lively, detailed, and creatively assembled. The staff was courteous and kind.

The 4th floor, pre-colonial through conquistador history, and 3rd floor, colonial Florida through Disney, are very well done. The information is presented through a variety of media that will keep the attention of all ages. The 2nd floor the African Americans in Florida and a collection of objects from 150 years of Orlando history. The section on African American consisted of hundreds of paragraphs posted on the walls and some pictures. I'm sure if I could have spent the 3 hours (at least) needed to read my way through it would have been informative. You should have done better with this exhibit.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Diagon Alley is a magical recreation of the famous street from the Harry Potter series, featuring a wand shop and a thrilling ride based on Gringotts Bank. This enchanting area at Universal Studios Florida offers an immersive experience for fans of the beloved books and films. Visitors can explore intricately detailed shops, such as Zonkos Joke Shop and Honeydukes Sweetshop, before indulging in themed treats and drinks like butterbeer.
Ticket prices have gone thru the roof to visit these parks in Florida. Two tickets to Halloween Horror Nights and two Fast Passes will cost you over $1,000 now. We didn't do the Fast Pass so be prepared to wait an hour minimum for most rides and 2-3 hours for the most popular ones. So if you got a bonus check or donated a kidney, you could afford a family of four to visit. Cokes are $20 each for a cup and unlimited refills from Coke stations, half of them didn't have ice. It will cost you over $100 to just eat the fast food in the park, over $200 if you have a sit down dinner. I didn't have any of the alcohol here but I'm sure it's even more expensive. All in all, consider it a once in a lifetime trip for the kids. Should be 12 and older so they can ride everything and enjoy it. There are a few things for smaller kids but the park is more geared for bigger kids and adults.

This is a fantastic place. We are all huge Harry Potter fans, so very excited to visit. The sets and designs are out of this world, as are the rides. The main downside is the volume of people that can detract from your enjoyment. Having to fight to move around, get in and out of shops is crazy. Sadly this only brings out the worst in fellow muggles in the park. The lockers for rides was very stressful. Personally I'd avoid during school holidays and summer. There's loads to love about this section of the park but Universal need to prioritise the experience over volumes of people in the park. We bought our son a new generation wand and 92 dollars for what is essentially moulded plastic is insane. This creates much of the movie atmosphere in the areas but just as you're starting to enjoy it, you're being pushed or bumped into. I'm so pleased we paid for fast passes as 2 hours to queue for rides in the extreme heat is horrific for all, especially families with small children.

If you're a Potter fan, this is a must. The attention to detail is breathtaking, and there are all sorts of nooks and crannies to explore. The Escape from Gringots ride is great fun, and there is a ton to see even when you're standing in line. If you have an interactive wand, look for the many places to use it here. The only downside is the crowds, but where ISN'T that the case?

Visiting Diagon Alley in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Orlando is nothing short of magical. The moment you step through the brick archway, the real world slips away and you’re transported straight into the heart of the wizarding world. The views are breathtaking and surreal, from the towering dragon perched atop Gringotts to the charming crooked storefronts lining the cobblestone streets. Every detail feels lovingly crafted, making it easy to believe you’ve wandered into the pages of the books or scenes from the films. What truly sets Diagon Alley apart is its ability to feel timeless. No matter how many times you visit, the experience never loses its wonder. Whether you’re savoring a butterbeer, browsing Ollivanders for the perfect wand, or watching the dragon roar to life, each moment feels just as enchanting as the first. It’s a place where nostalgia and awe intertwine, creating an experience that delights fans of all ages. If you’re looking for a theme park area that offers true immersion, unforgettable sights, and pure magic, Diagon Alley is an absolute must-visit.

My favourite part of this Universal park. Creepy, magical, stunning artistic designs of an 'off kilter' magical world. The ice cream is a must at the cones shop, as is the infamous butter beer available nearby. Slightly disappointing is the lack of fire-breathing from the dragon at the bank, two days on the trot. Come on Universal...you charge plenty for admission.......

The wizardly world was actually the best part of Universal Studio to me. They really did a great job with the exterior, interior and overall vibes of the place. So many people were stopping at the windows of each store, twirling their wands to cast magic spell, and the windows will actually respond back with water, smoke or other things. There was also the dragon who spit fire every 10 minutes. Standing underneath the dragon, I could actually feel the heat of the fire. They had so many different shops here. One dedicated to all kinds of wands. Another shop had all the costume, replicas, apparel and gears from the franchise. We found a bank shop that sold Happy Porter money and coins. We actually got a $10 bill and coin set. There were couple other shops that sold variety of merchandise. There were couple of rides here, one of them was very popular, wait time was over 40 minutes and all items needed to be put in lockers before entering the ride.

The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art is a historic and family-friendly museum located in Orlando, Florida. While the city is known for its theme parks, it also offers a diverse selection of cultural institutions. The museum, established in 1995 but with roots dating back to 1942, houses an extensive collection of Tiffany treasures acquired from the estate of Louis Comfort Tiffany.
What a gem! Literally - the inside glows from all the colored Tiffany glass. This is a museum almost totally dedicated to Louis Comfort Tiffany - his stained glass windows and lamps, paintings, and even his house, though there are other art deco era artists in the mix. One side has huge illuminated windows and a room of unusual pottery, in the other direction are lamps and painting and period furniture. Then there's a whole wing that somewhat recreates the house Tiffany retired to, with whole rooms and areas as they were, plus a room on his whole history. Don't miss the video room off the foyer/entrance area to start and make sure to leave through the artsy gift shop. There is free parking next to the museum and plenty of shops and restaurants in the immediate area. The ticket price is remarkably low, it seems to be still funded by the fortune of the woman who put the collection together.

Impressive museum with magnificent artwork and fascinating history, but I am a frequent museum attendant and have never experienced such intrusive security guards. I felt as though my personal space was encroached upon multiple times and like I always had eyes on me. We still thoroughly enjoyed our visit, but I can definitely see how it’s thrown others off. The peacefulness of museums is paramount to me and the interferences made it a little tough to feel serene and impeded my ability to immerse myself. I doubt I would return due to this. There is also not enough in the museum to justify multiple trips anyway—we were able to soak in what was available during the few hours we were there, and we read practically everything. Despite all my grumbling above, it was a lovely stop and I would highly recommend to anybody looking for some beautiful art and history in the area.

Harry P. Leu Gardens is a 50-acre botanic garden and estate located on Lake Rowena, featuring a diverse array of flora including roses, camellias, cycads, azaleas, philodendrons, and bromeliads. The gardens offer free admission on the first Monday of every month from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
It's beautiful here! And the origami sculpture is fantastic - I tended to use that map to get around because it's smaller. There are nice big open spaces, wandering trails, and little tucked away hidden gardens, so put your exploring feet on. Of course, in the middle of the day in July it was hot hot hot, but still worth the walk around, and they sell ice cream inside the welcome building. Parking is in two "lobes" around the entrance area, and not a ton of it. Beautiful roses, tropicals, and even an arid garden with cacti, they do a good cross-section here. Don't miss the birdhouses around the trails - they're so cute! Made to look like our houses, there's a plantation mansion, everglades swamp house, even a little English thatched cottage. Super cute and worth looking out for.

I recommend this park! I love nature and walking. My husband invited me, but I didn't know where we were going. It was a warm autumn day. There weren't many people around. We walked for many hours, looking at the plants, relaxing on the benches, and talking. It's a shame the museum was closed that day. I love learning the history of the place I'm in, pieces of history about the lives of the people who lived there and created this place.

Went here for a visit with my boyfriend, and at the time they were holding a themed scavenger hunt, which guided you through the park and led you to a treasure chest! Extremely beautiful place, all plants are labeled carefully and the terrain is not hard, so most levels of walkers/slow joggers can have fun here! There is some (avoidable) uphill incline and boarded walkways for those with accessibility/wheelchair concerns. Most areas are shaded and there is a beautiful, vintage styled rose garden with a fountain. Overall, all ages would find something to wonder at here. Admission is not extremely pricey, so make sure to check this out if you’re in the Orlando area!

Absolutely lovely garden filled with birds and butterflies. I felt this garden was inspiring and beautiful. I highly recommend!!! ❤️ Located just minutes from downtown Orlando, Harry P. Leu Gardens is truly a hidden gem and a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. As soon as I stepped through the gates, I was surrounded by a lush, tropical landscape that felt both calming and rejuvenating. The pathways wind through beautifully maintained gardens, each section offering something unique—from rose gardens bursting with color and fragrance to towering camellias and serene shaded areas under centuries-old oak trees draped in Spanish moss. I saw an incredible variety of birds during my walk, and butterflies flitted between the blooms, adding to the almost magical atmosphere. The gardens are well-labeled, so you can actually learn about the different species as you stroll, which made the experience even more engaging. The historic Leu House Museum is also worth a visit while you're there, giving you a glimpse into the area's history and the family that once lived on the property. Whether you're a plant lover, a photographer, or just looking for a quiet place to reflect, this garden is a must-visit. I left feeling relaxed, inspired, and connected to nature.

Andretti Indoor Karting & Games Orlando is a top-notch entertainment facility that offers a wide range of activities for visitors. Named after racing legend Mario Andretti, this 150,000-square-foot venue features indoor karting, boutique bowling, arcade games, laser tag, virtual reality experiences, and an extreme ropes course with curved ziplines. The pro racing simulators provide an immersive experience with motion effects and tension in the seatbelt to simulate real race conditions.
Awesome Spot for Family Fun This place was incredibly cool! The go-kart tracks were a blast—fun for both kids and adults. We did the 3-race package for $64, but they also offer 6- and 9-race deals if you’re looking for more action. The arcade was super fun too, with tickets you can redeem for a pretty cool selection of prizes. The atmosphere was electric, and the track lights really added to the experience. Highly recommend for anyone on Vacation that’s looking for something exciting to do with the Family that’s not Disney World!

Well, what an experience this was! This location is absolutely NOTHING like the Melbourne location, it's 1000 times better! Yesterday 9-14-2025 I had an experience to remember. From the very beginning I was greeted very promptly and even got to speak with the manager (not that I needed to) but I was waiting for the counter lady to come out from the backroom and I let the manager know up front that it was my first time at this location. I actually went Saturday but it was so busy and didn't want to wait in a long line. I'm not a fan of long lines. Anyway I went back Sunday and the manager that engaged conversation thoroughly explained all the pricing and packages very well. I just felt so welcomed here and even the counter lady was super nice and happy! Everyone was so happy and it was just an amazing experience. Now for the track. The track I was on gave me the ultimate challenge but I like that. I love challenge especially cornering. The karts are definitely uniquely designed and the slick track definitely makes you think twice about speeding into corners 🤣 I went solo on this trip to Orlando but I will DEFINITELY be back with friends and we'll spend the whole day next time. As I type this I can't wait to go back! I didn't get counter lady's name or the manager but I'm sure if either of them see this they'll remember me! ATMOSPHERE WAS TOP NOTCH!

Our first time, and it was great! Go karts, virtual reality, so many arcade games- there really is something for everyone. The staff was so friendly and helpful. One of the arcade games stopped working while I was playing and they had someone come fix it so quickly! This place was a highlight of our trip!

This place is pretty awesome. Electric indoor go-kart tracks for all ages. Bowling alley. Arcade and Skill games. Virtual reality. Multiple player racing games. Restaurant on the lower level, bar on the top level. A bit on the expensive side so search online for discounts but the place is well worth going too. You will have fun. Remember it’s all inside a huge air conditioned building.

Tha was my first time there, we usually go to top golf! The place is huge, they do offer indoor Karting (has option for Kids and Adults) they are electric. We didn't race, but we did play bowling (can I call it bowling?, well, they do call bowling) but no whole into the balls and small balls, like bocce. The arcade machines are OK, should have more options to play together and less crappie bear machines or ticket ones! It's a fun place, even with that micro bowling

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Andretti Indoor Karting & Games Orlando! From start to finish, everything was seamless, well-organized, and stress-free. Patricia, the manager, welcomed us with such patience and professionalism. She walked us through our schedule, made sure everything was clear, and truly set the tone for the day. Chy from the events department was phenomenal—she guided my daughter and her friends to each activity, always with kindness, patience, and attention to detail. She answered all of our questions with ease and made sure everyone felt comfortable and cared for. Jose, our bartender, was outstanding as well—friendly, attentive, and always available when we needed him. His service really added to the overall experience. We never felt lost or left with questions—every staff member went above and beyond to cater to us. It made the whole day smooth, fun, and memorable. Thank you, Patricia, Chy, and Jose, for making our celebration truly special!

Set sail for an unforgettable evening at Pirates Dinner Adventure, where family-friendly fun meets thrilling entertainment aboard a stunning 18th-century ship replica. This captivating dinner show features acrobatic pirates swinging from the sails, engaging music, and a delightful mystery to unravel—especially festive during the holiday season! Guests can indulge in a delicious three-course meal while enjoying unlimited soft drinks and wine options for adults.
We had our wedding here last night, and everyone loved it! Gabriela is amazing to work with. We started working with her months ago to plan our day, and she was key in making sure all bases were covered, and that we were comfortable. From making sure our Spotify playlist was ready, to orchestrating our lighting and special effects with the tech, always being on top of the timelines, getting the visuals prepared, and even making sure to fill in a few gaps with an assist, she really did make our night special. If you want a unique wedding experience- please consider this hidden gem of a venue!

I had a delightful experience at the pirate dinner adventure show. The storyline was engaging and filled with unexpected twists, while the acrobatics showcased incredible athleticism and skill that truly captivated the audience. I particularly appreciated how interactive the performance was, drawing the crowd in and making us feel like part of the adventure. However, the food left something to be desired; it was rather bland and didn’t quite live up to my expectations. On the brighter side, the service was attentive and friendly, which helped to enhance the overall experience. That said, the event was quite pricey, and I couldn’t help but notice the constant requests for tips, which felt a bit excessive.

I’ve never been to a dinner show but I am glad this was my first one!!! It was a blast! We are locals, where everything is meant to entertain and engage. However this show was top notch. The stunts were exciting. The story was fun. The pirates were a joy. What I loved most about it was the engagement with the audience. I felt that everyone had a part in the show. All the kids who wanted to participate were called up on stage and were initiated as pirates. The food wasn’t amazing but it didn’t taste like mass produced cafeteria food. The servers were attentive. So much fun, and we can’t wait to do it again.

It was suggested by the concierge at the Sheraton Vistana Resort to take my grandchildren to the Pirates Dinner Adventure. I took the advice and we attended the performance. We sat next to the mermaid's parents in the theater! The show was entertaining, although quite a bit of dueling, punching, and fighting took place. Overall, the show was good, acrobatics and all. The mermaid was very agile and talented. The dinner was good, kingly portions that we were not able to finish. The gift shop was a little tricky and misleading. After the children were told to pick items, afterward, we were told they weren't pre-paid, and they expected additional money for them. We passed on that. There was plenty of free parking. The restrooms were clean and stocked. There was a huge sword and dagger display, I'm not sure if they were for sale. They took photos that were for sale, but I thought they were overpriced, so we passed on that also. In all fairness, it was entertaining, kid friendly, and different. I would recommend this place.

Disney Parks & Activities
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park is a thrilling destination for families and adventure seekers alike. The park offers a variety of attractions, including slides, a kids' splash area, and a swimming area with ocean-like swells. Visitors can dive into the wreckage of a fictional whirlwind storm and enjoy raft rides like the 400-foot water coaster or the exhilarating Humunga Kowabunga slide.
We had a great time during our first visit to Disney's Typhoon Lagoon. The water park is the smalled we have ever been too, which felt cozy and easier to navigate. We were pleasantly surprised by the number of family rides, since it allowed us to make more memories with the kids. Complimentary towels available at the shop. The wave pool was lots of fun, but it can be a bit too strong for littles, so beware. We ended up losing one of the kids' shoe, and getting a few knee scrapes, which added to fun lol We ended up visiting the first aid office, and we were very happy with the attention we received by the nurse on staff. The food was hands down the best we've tried at any Disney Park, which was another amazing surprise. We tried the burgers and rice with shrimp (forgot the item name), and everything was so delicious. We will definitely visit again and again, we loved our first visit.

Great experience. Short lines for attractions now in October. Family friendly and lots attractions for solo riders. The best attraction by far doesn't have a line and it's the wave pool with those tsunami-like waves. The crushers were very good as well. Not the most thrilling water park I've been to. But certainly one of the most charming ones to have a pleasant day. Perfect combination I would say, for all kind of people

Had an amazing day here mostly relaxed the wave machine is immense. I would however caution entering if you are at all unsteady on your feet. The waves are powerful even in the shallow part of the attraction. The lazy river was amazing and the kids really enjoyed all the slides and attractions. Even though the park was closed early due to a very intense thunderstorm it was completely worth the visit. We hired a cabana and the service was great.

Excellent water park. Getting in was easy with no queue. Parking was easy (no extra charge). They charge $10 for a standard locker (tiny) or $15 for a bigger one, I recommend getting the bigger one. You get towels so don't take your own (like we did). We went on a Sunday but it want too busy and we hardly queued for a ride. We had a 7 and 3 year old and there was loads of slides and things for them to go on. I think of you child is over 48inches they can pretty much go on everything (if they are close to the height they do check). Family raft rides were a lot of fun, our 3 year old loved and was scared at the same time! Wave pool is good but it is a big wave...be warned...it wiped us all out! Haha We spend the whole day there, and didn't stop all day! The kids loved it and wanted to go back. If you have a younger family this park is perfect and the water was really warm!

Great water park to return to,easy to relax and take in the sun with some big waves that will take you off your feet. Not a huge amount of rides for adults,but we knew that. Complimentary towels,just ask anytime,more parks should be like this,good to be back.

This waterpark is a fantastic place - we visited 3 times as we had such a hoot there! There are body rides, aquacoaster rides, food, drink, loads of different places to grab a sunbed without having to be where the main ones are, the sand doesn't get hot and is so powdery that it doesn't stick to you And the second biggest wave machine in the world, so much so that sometimes it's hired out to surfers of an evening! WE LOVED THIS park and prefered it to Universal's VolcanoBay which was just TOO big that it overwhelmed you! Also free parking which, is a plus as every other park, be it Disney or Universal, you had to pay for parking!

Spent 10 days at Disney / Universal, visiting from Canada. Four adults and four granddaughters. Different strokes for different folks but this was by far my most enjoyable day. Kids from aged 2 to 12 loved it. If you can afford it, book the umbrella cabana beside the lazy river - about $200 USD. Food service, free soft drinks and water, comfortable seating and privacy. The service was exceptional. Wave pool, river, and tube / raft rides are all great. Reserve the cabana in advance - tough to get depending upon the time of year.

Universal Volcano Bay is a thrilling water park located in the southernmost state of Florida. It features high-thrill slides and rides, as well as low-key pools for relaxation. The park's centerpiece is the impressive 200-foot-tall Krakatau volcano, offering a day of fun-filled family activities.
Volcano Bay is absolutely the best water park I have ever been to! We celebrated my son’s birthday there and had an unforgettable time. Everyone enjoyed it - both kids and adults. What impressed me the most is how comfortable the park is: the walking paths are always cool because of the water sprays, so your feet never burn, and the virtual line system makes rides easy and stress-free. Truly a 5-star experience and by far the greatest water park I’ve ever visited!

I loved this place so much🌋. Thought the water was gonna be cold but NOPE, they have a system at the bottom of the beach/pool that keeps throwing hot water so it keeps it warm. The rides/slide are something else that you will love. The cabanas looked amazing even though I didn’t use them. The day me and my family went it was raining but still we had a lot of fun. Best part??? The lazy river 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 OMG everyone is going to love that one. Tickets were $80 not bad for how much are the other parks.

Volcano Bay is probably the best water park in Orlando — and that’s saying a lot given the competition. The entire park is beautifully themed, centered around the towering Krakatau volcano that actually erupts and glows at night, creating an atmosphere that’s part tropical paradise, part cinematic spectacle. Every corner feels immersive, from the sandy beaches and cascading waterfalls to the crystal-clear wave pool that makes you forget you’re still in the city. It’s a bit disappointing that Universal decided to retire the TapuTapu system, the reason for only 4 stars. That feature really set Volcano Bay apart — being able to tap in for virtual lines and unlock hidden water effects around the park made the experience feel futuristic and stress-free. Without it, the vibe is still amazing, but the wait times definitely sting more. The Krakatau Aqua Coaster, is an absolute blast — a mix between a roller coaster and a water slide — but the line can stretch over an hour now, which makes it harder to justify riding. That said, there’s still a lot to love. The park has some of the best lazy rivers anywhere, from the serene Kopiko Wai Winding River to the action-packed TeAwa Fearless River that actually tosses you around with its rapids. Overall, even with the loss of TapuTapu, Volcano Bay remains an incredible experience. It’s the perfect blend of thrill, relaxation, and stunning design — the kind of place where you can spend an entire day and still feel like you’re on vacation.

At this time of year it was busy but not like peak season. The lines were nice and short on every ride except Krakatoa. The lockers were plentiful for early arrivals. Only bad thing was nearly all of the restaurant options were closed. We enjoyed our day in the water and sunshine.

We enjoyed our time at Volcano Bay. One of the best water parks I have had the pleasure of visiting. We had the Premium seating. This included two lounge chairs and a cover. This is a good holding area for a small group of 4 at most. Highly suggest that all ticket holder arrive early to the park to be able to get in line for the most popular rides. We spent a lot of time in the rapid river and the Wave pool.

This was my first time here and let me tell you what... I should have gone years ago!! This was the best water parks I have ever been to and for a pretty affordable price too. We easily spent the entire day here and could have been here for another day. They have a huge lazy river, a white water rapids river, multiple slides, a water coaster, and a massive wave pool beneath the volcano. It's so surreal and incredibly fun.

We had a great experience at Volcano Bay. After a rocky start at Universal this was the perfect ending to our 4 day park experience. I love the watch they give you for the rides (something I feel the rest of the parks should implement). It gives you the chance to actually enjoy the rest of the park while waiting for the rides with the long waits to buzz us to get in line. Loved it! The rides were fun and there was something for everyone. Area for the kids, rides for the thrill seekers, rides for those a little scarier than others, and the 2 rivers were great. The kids loved the wave pool and summoning the waves. A few negatives....the price of cabanas were ridiculous $900. I was expecting it to be more expensive than others parks, but $900 is just outrageous. There was not enough umbrellas sit under, so if you didn't pay the absorbent fee for cabanas or private seating you were in the hot sun all-day. They really need more maps around of how to navigate the park. Getting back to your spot could prove to be difficult at times. Other than that we had a great time and would return.

From the moment we arrived at Volcano Bay, we felt like we had stepped into another world! The park’s design is stunning, filled with tropical colors, lush scenery, and relaxing music that sets the perfect mood. Everything was well-organized from the moment we entered until the end of the day. Attractions & Activities: The water rides here are incredibly diverse, ranging from thrilling high-speed slides for adrenaline seekers to lazy rivers and large pools perfect for families. My kids had a blast in the children’s area, which was safe, clean, and well-supervised by attentive staff. My spouse and I tried the massive slide that goes down from inside the volcano — an unforgettable experience! Cleanliness & Services: The park is spotless everywhere you go, and the restrooms are clean and well-equipped. Sun loungers and umbrellas are neatly arranged, making it easy to relax between activities. The TapuTapu system was brilliant — no need to stand in long lines, and everything felt smooth and convenient. Food & Drinks: Plenty of dining options with reasonable prices for a tourist location. We tried some quick bites and refreshing cold drinks, which were perfect after hours of fun in the water. Extra Services – Cabana Rental: We rented a cabana during our visit. While it was comfortable and provided shade and privacy, the rental price felt a bit high compared to the services and amenities offered. Overall Atmosphere: The staff were extremely friendly and always ready to help with a smile. The overall vibe of the park was full of joy and laughter. Even with the crowds, everything was so well-organized that it never felt overwhelming. Note: The only downside was that it took us over an hour to get from the park exit to the parking lot due to heavy congestion. Hopefully, this can be improved in the future to make the end of the day as smooth as the rest of the experience. Conclusion: Our day at Volcano Bay was one of the highlights of our Orlando trip. I highly recommend dedicating a full day to enjoy everything the park has to offer and arriving early to make the most of it. Perfect for families, couples, and groups of friends looking for a mix of fun and relaxation. We will definitely be back!

It was interesting, but crowded. Kind of a small space. A few large groups made exploring everything difficult. I think if the " guides" were assigned to groups, and they staggered entry, that it would be more enjoyable and you'd get to check it all out. Plus the guides could help with photos and info. They spent more time standing and talking to each other. We did have one help stage for a picture. He was nice.

Réal and the team at Nona Adventure Park made hosting our group event here a breeze! The weather was gorgeous and they were so kind to check on us regularly for drinks and service but mindful to not to interfere. Everyone was very sweet and accommodating and the space was just what we needed for an informal social gathering. Having the option to open or close the garage doors depending on weather, etc made the space awesome as well as having some comfortable couch seating some low tables, and some high top tables for variety and options. Though we didn't need it, there were screen and A/V options available that could be great for future events. Having the kitchen available for food was another bonus. We definitely plan to return and look forward to coming back for their social events as well like the sunset evenings and more. Thanks for a great experience!

Nona Adventure Park is such a special place in Orlando! The water park course is thrilling, safe, and so much fun for all ages — like a giant floating playground that keeps you laughing and challenged at the same time. The staff is attentive, welcoming, and makes sure everyone feels comfortable from start to finish. On top of the adventure, we were blessed to experience the Christian Market held on the grounds. It was truly beautiful — filled with uplifting music, joyful fellowship, and a sense of community you don’t find everywhere. The worship and message created such a positive atmosphere, turning a fun day into something even more meaningful. It was wonderful to see faith and family come together in such a vibrant way. The combination of exciting activities, a clean and safe environment, and the joy of the Christian Market made this a day we’ll never forget. Highly recommend Nona Adventure Park not only for the adventure but also for the heart behind the community they’re building.

This is an updated review! We had such a fantastic experience at Nona Adventure Park! We started with the Learn to Wake lesson, and I can’t recommend it enough!! Raph was an incredible instructor—so patient, encouraging, and great at explaining the technique in a way that was easy to understand, especially for beginners like us. He made us feel comfortable right away and gave each of us individual attention to help us succeed. His calm and supportive teaching style really set the tone for an awesome first day on the water. After our lesson, we were hooked! We decided to buy the membership, and I really appreciate how flexible it is—no extra fees if we decide to pause or cancel. That kind of freedom makes it so much easier to commit. Both of my sons absolutely love it here. My 15-year-old wants to wakeboard every single day, and my 10-year-old is obsessed with kneeboarding and paddleboarding. They also have a blast at the aqua park, which is basically a floating playground and perfect for burning off energy. As a parent, I’m just so happy to have found a place where we can spend time together, outdoors, being active, and making memories. It’s such a relief to see my boys off their screens and instead doing something physical, fun, and confidence-building. We’re looking forward to many more days at Nona Adventure Park! Even more bonuses—there’s a sweet little beach area that’s perfect for my 4-year-old, plus a bouncy house on weekends and a fun playground that keeps him entertained. The pizza is housemade, and the crust and sauce are genuinely delicious—you can tell it’s not your typical concession stand food. We also love the variety of food vendors that rotate through the park, offering something new each time we visit. It truly feels like there’s something for everyone here. Thank you NAP for improving the Aqua Park!

Dezerland Park Orlando is an expansive indoor entertainment center that offers a wide range of activities to keep visitors entertained all day long. With over 800,000 square feet of space, the park features go-kart racing, bowling, axe-throwing, trampoline jumping, arcade games, bumper cars, and glow-in-the-dark mini-golf. Additionally, it houses Orlando's largest museum - The Auto Museum.
Incredible selection of cars/ motorcycles! Such a great experience! Took us about 3 hours at a fast pace to go through the car museum but could have easily spent the whole day there. Beautiful selection! In addition to cars there’s go carts, laser tag, lots of different games. What an amazing place! You can easily spend the whole day there with kids!

There's a ton of stuff to do with kids. Go carts, pinball, axe throwing, arcade games, and food. The car museum is large and awesome. Some awesome collectible cars and movie used cars were present. The roof was leaking in some places and buckets were being used to catch the rain water. So, it smelled really damp.

This is an amazing, interesting, and much more fun place than anything people tell you. You must experience it all yourself. Karting, an insanely cool automobile collection, food, drinks, bowling, more than one museum (cars, 007…), Cinemark movie theater, Spa (yup!). EDIT: Venue Admittance is FREE, but the Car Museum itself is $30 per person (I think $15-$20 would be perfect), but it’s worth it. Car enthusiasts, you will love this place! Fun for the entire family.

They have go carts, shops, & restaurants... its like an indoor mall but with cars! It's free to enter & view the cars but the individual activities are priced separately. A definite must if you have kids & anyone that loves cars / car history / movie cars.

Visited Dezerland Park Orlando today and had an excellent experience. The go-kart track was well-maintained and enjoyable, the glow-in-the-dark mini-golf offered a unique twist, and the bowling alley provided a fun atmosphere. The facility is clean and the staff were accommodating. Highly recommend for a family outing or group activity.

This park was probably amazing back in the day but it's a bit rundown. We came in as it opened so we weren't expecting it to be too busy, but honestly it was pretty dead the entire time. A lot of shops and extractions were closed down or took hours to open up. It's definitely a bit pricy but that's not surprising for Orlando. Put put for two was $36. Go kart for two was about $60-$70. Laser tag was about $19 each but we didn't even get to go due to a private event. Bowling was about $30-$40 for two. The food was decent, pizza was alright I wish I tried more places. The movie theater was gorgeous, absolutely loved the red and black and the cashier's were so kind. I suggest going before the place shuts down because unfortunately I don't think it'll be open after a couple years. Still if you're a car enthusiast stop by!

An interesting mix of things to do at this location. Indoor cart racing, arcade, pinball, auto museum, and an attached theater. First time visit and did the pinball (unlimited play / time ) and walked through the auto museum. Pretty wild the number of cars they had in there. Enjoyed the movie props (batmobile for the win!) and always love a walk through the past.

Museums
The Mennello Museum of American Art, located in Orlando and owned by the city, was established in 1998 to showcase a remarkable collection of Earl Cunningham's paintings. The museum hosts temporary exhibitions and educational programs while also offering free access to the Marilyn L. Mennello Sculpture Garden, known for its impressive live oak tree called The Mayor.
We went for music and story time with Mark & Ale DeMaio this week and had a blast! The parking lot filled up so we parked in the science center parking lot which is free for 30 mins and just walked over. The kids had the best time making music and animal noises, playing on the drums and singing silly songs. Mark was so great at engaging with the little ones and making everyone feel included. So fun and wholesome. The museum is nice & clean and the front desk staff was friendly & welcoming. Definitely recommend checking it out, I believe it happens once a month? and is super affordable ($5 per family). Such a great way to connect with other families with little ones, plus everyone benefits from jumping around and being silly 🤪

Paid full price for five minutes and that’s all it takes to walk through the facility absolutely terrible nothing original and was very disappointed that they literally had 8 x 11 pieces of paper with drawings on them that my 10-year-old has brought home better that were tacked to the wall with some thumb tacks. In their featured… That’s questionable display was a small square platform in the middle of a room with the most random items didn’t even look like artists designed them kinda looks like the things you don’t buy at a garage sale. Highly recommend scratching this one off your to do list before even going there

Interesting exhibits. This museum was open earlier than other art museums in the area on Saturdays, and admission was only $5. The sculpture garden was also nice, and much larger than it seems. On a pleasant central Florida day, it's a nice walk. Friendly staff. Highly recommend pausing to watch the education video on the tablet in the Earl Cunningham exhibit. They also have tote bags available at the museum store for $5.

Although small, it was a nice little museum to look around and learn some history. The displays were interesting and informative. Don't expect to be here all day. Maybe 2 hours tops. There is a nice small sculpture garden outside as well. You pay a small fee to go in the museum but well worth it.

I attended a yoga session in the sculpture garden, which was beautifully landscaped and scenic. Afterward, I explored the museum, which had its own unique charm and majesty. The museum was currently featuring the works of a Pakistani-American artist, which were thoughtfully presented and displayed. Although the museum isn't particularly large, its cozy size adds to its warm and inviting ambiance. Overall, I had a delightful visit and highly recommend taking the time to explore both the grounds and the museum.

It's a bit small, but absolutely worth the $5 they charge to get in. They even have a free day every so often. The collection is fantastic and you can spend as long or little enjoying it as you want, within museum hours. They also have expansion plans, with a model and description of their plans inside the museum. Very exciting stuff! It's a hidden gem in Orlando and definitely worth exploring if you haven't been before or if it's been a while.

Beautiful park to walk, relax, and take pictures(Wedding, Sweet Fifteen, and other pics). We choose a day that was cloudy to visit and the atmosphere was at most the best. Parked on the side and took all this pictures of sculptures and them some of us(my husband and I) lol. We had a blast listening to the birds shirping and viewing the turtles peekaboo over the water. Love the experience.

Big props to your team! We also did Playground, and WOW ! what a fun time for the whole family! It was playful, clever, and just the right amount of tricky. The pressure was definitely on as the timer ticked down, but we made it out with just a few minutes to spare! 🎒⏱️ Thanks for the unforgettable memories can’t wait to come back and take on another challenge!

Would definitely recommend this location & I will be going back to ask if Leanna could be my game guide again!

We traveled to orlando for a vacation to do just escape rooms and we tryed this company. At first we were leary because you can be booked with strangers but we just went in and booked a room that was empty last minute and was just us. Im so glad that we gave them a try because there rooms were so fun and challenging with very good props and decorations. Staff were all friendly and helpful. We tryed gold rush, yeti, special ops, and the depths. Cant wait to come back next year and finish the rest of the games.

I went with my 10-year-old son for a fun mom-and-son outing, and we had an absolutely wonderful experience at The Escape Room Orlando! We chose the Special Ops: Mysterious Market room, which was definitely a challenging one (especially with just the two of us) but we had such a great time working through it together. A huge shout-out to Alec, who was incredibly sweet and attentive from start to finish. He explained the game so clearly, made sure we were always supported during the experience, and even jumped in right away to replace a flashlight when one stopped working. That kind of care really made the difference. Overall, this was such a memorable experience for both me and my son (we’re total geeks for things like this!), and we’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend, five stars all the way!

Miniature golf course
Pirate's Cove Adventure Golf in Orlando, Florida is a must-visit for golf enthusiasts. The venue offers two 18-hole courses with unique challenges and lush tropical vegetation to shield players from the sun. The affordably priced attraction features cascading waterfalls, dungeons, tropical flora, and even an actual pirate ship to putt through. Visitors rave about the beautifully designed amenities, including mermaids and numerous water features throughout the intricately themed mini-golf course.
Arguably the best Mini Golf we have been to in years! We went in early right after opening so there were not many people, but I can see this spot becoming very busy as the day goes on. The course is really fun and in great shape. The greens are really fast and we all really enjoyed playing the tougher course. It is a tad bit on the expensive side, but for the fun overall experience we would pay it again.

Pirate's Cove was very fun and convenient. I played 36 holes, enjoyed the scenery and the pirate themed decorations. The staff were very nice and accommodating. I went early in the morning so I can't attest to how busy it is at peak times but there were others playing ahead of me and a large group of children that started behind me. It was fun but the heat is brutal. It is Florida after all. FYI: This Orlando location is not wheelchair friendly. You cannot access the course via wheelchair. The staff did state that their other locations are wheelchair accessible but this I-drive location was grandfathered in to being able to not cater to wheelchair users.

Embark on an enchanting adventure at Chocolate Kingdom - Factory Adventure Tour, a whimsical chocolate museum and factory in Orlando. This interactive experience allows visitors to witness the transformation of cocoa into delectable chocolate treats through exhibits like the Mystical River of Chocolate and a Micro Batch Bean-to-Bar room.
I took the tour and did the chocolate and wine pairing. It was so delicious they give you four different wines and four different pieces of chocolate. They have excellent instructions on how to do the wine and chocolate pairing. Edgar was very helpful to me doing this. He also waited on me when I bought a bunch of different chocolate things and let me tell you everything I bought. There wasn’t a bad bad choice at all. I went back today and bought more. Cheryl was my tour and she was excellent. For $10 you can have a candy bar made with a bunch of different items inside I had one made with pecans, almonds and peanut butter chips in it.

We enjoyed a wonderful private tour with "George the good looking" and Meechu the dragon, and of course, our lovely and very informative tour guide, "Cheryl (with a C)." Delicious samples of cocoa beans, Xocolatl (drunk 50 times a day by Montezuma, and double chocolate dipped marshmallows, and dark, milk, and white chocolate shoes were provided. We even had a competition to launch marshmallows into Meechu's mouth! And after the tour we took home a bunch of chocolates all hand made!

Cheryl was a great tour guide! We did the last tour which was great, but I would definitely try to book the earlier tours if you can just so you have some more time to look around the shop. Don’t overlook their chocolate in the glass cases because that’s what we got at the end and they were really good!

It's definitely a wonderful little gem in Orlando with a tour that is hokey in the most endearing kind of way. Cheryl was fun and informative.

I visited today and rented a Cabana in Walkabout Waters. We were very disappointed. The area around our cabana had trash in the planters and was obvious it had been there more than a few days. Our food order took 50 minutes to deliver. The garbage cans were all full by 1pm and no one came to replace the liners or clean up around them. Had we not stayed in the cabana we would have left the park earlier since it was overcrowded with wait times for most attractions well over 45 minutes with a couple over 80 minutes. The overall experience was a solid 2-star out of 5. Its unlikely I’ll rent another cabana however I am a annual pass holder so I’ll return to the other parks but Aquatica has some issues. Wish I had the presence of mind to snap some photos.

The Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts is a grand, multilevel venue that offers a wide array of performances including Broadway plays, concerts, and dance shows. Upon entering the center, visitors are greeted by a magnificent staircase and ambient lighting that sets the stage for an immersive arts experience.
This is a spectacular place to experience great shows, musicals, concerts etc. I was able to watch the Nutcracker ballet. The quality of service fits the extravagance of the venue. The volunteers and staff were helpful from the valet, ticket center, check-in, and the lovely lady at the security. I couldn’t get enough of how modern/contemporary the venue is. It’s truly breathtaking! We were seated in the balcony and were still able to have a great view of the show. Comfy seats, clean space and beautiful decor. I already mapped out more shows to view for 2025.

We love going here every few months for a great show! :)

I appreciate Dr. Phillips as a venue, but their policies and staff training really need improvement. During my visit, people arrived nearly 40 minutes late and were still allowed to claim front-row seats, which disrupted the entire performance. With so many empty seats available, this should have been handled much better. Additionally, the concession prices are extremely high for what’s offered. A few changes in how seating is managed and a fairer approach to concessions would make the experience far more enjoyable and respectful to guests.

Been here multiple times for musicals, concerts and plays. One common pain point each time is the concession lines are unnecessarily long. Only two lines for a capacity of 2,700 for the walt disney theater. Merch is the same, only one line. Anyway youre not really coming to these places for food and drinks. Stage acoustics and lighting are top notch. Great views all around.

Absolutely amazing experience from beginning to end. Prepaid for valet parking was very easy to pull up, get a ticket, and be scanned in. Valet is literally right at the doors, so there no need to walk anywhere. Tickets opened a little early, and entry was quick and simple. Stunning lobby, with masks on display from the show, which was nice. Love all the natural light that shines through the windows. The merch table was nicely tucked away but simple and easy to get to and purchase from. The bar/concession stand had a nice variety of snacks and drinks. Had the Grub juice ($10), which was a specialty drink for the show, which was delicious. Absolutely loved the ease of ordering for both the beginning of the show and intermission. When intermission happened, it was very easy and quick to grab my snacks and drink and return to my seat, with no line at all for me. I got the charcuterie snack box, which was loaded for the price ($13), 2 different meats, 2 different cheese, a handful of grapes, and 3 different crackers (2 of each) and a nice jam, was perfect for a nice quick snack at intermission. The bathrooms were immaculate and so pretty for bathrooms. The seats were nicely cushioned, though I did feel a bit on top of each other if you were on the bigger side as I am. The sound quality was amazing. The staff from entrance to bartenders to ushers were absolutely amazing, informative, friendly, and helpful. Got the surprise of a free 15min Q&A with some of the cast and crew at the end of the show. Tonight we got Pumbaa, Shenzi and one of the athletic trainers. At the end it was simple to hand my ticket to valet and have my car brought right to me. Definitely worse the few more bucks than walking to my car, especially since I was by myself and it was 11pm when we finally came out. As I said from beginning to end an absolute amazing night put on by an amazing facility and staff!

The venue is lovely and the show was well done. However, everything about the operations of this facility are severely lacking. We were repeatedly directed to the wrong theater and spent 45 minutes waiting in the wrong area after showing our tickets to multiple people working there and all assured us we were in the right area only to have to rush over the other side of the venue minutes before the show started. We collected more people in our scramble to the other side of the facility, so we were not the only ones given completely wrong information. Once in the correct theater, the usher wanted us to walk around to a different section be seated, then turned around and redirected us to our seats, two seats over from where we started this conversation. No one working there seemed knowledgeable about what was happening around them. We also used their valet service where no one was directing customers that there were 2 lines and there was no order to be seen. My car was returned smelling so heavily of marijuana it triggered my asthma before we made it the end of the street. This was very disappointing for our first visit to this venue and completely unexpected for something that tries to promote itself as a high end experience. Signs and proper communication could go a long way. As mentioned by numerous other reviews - the issues started with their terrible ticketing site. TLDR: The show - 5 stars, Everything controlled by Dr. Phillips Center - trash

My child was extremely excited to go on a field trip here with his classmates (4th and 5th grade) until the excitement became SHOCK at how the ushers and staff treated the teachers and students in such a manner of COMPLETE DISRESPECT. The children LOVED the performance and the theatre but all said that the customer service experience should get 0 stars. Most of the staff were so kind, and very polite and welcoming to the children- but it only takes a few bad apples to ruin the bunch. Teachers have enough on their plate to keep all of these kids at bay and together and respectful to the theatre, let alone dealing with this extra layer. They were all in dismay at how certain members of the staff were literally yelling at the students and teachers in a such a rude and harsh way. Way to set an example. The ushers were rude, got in teachers faces, and literally were putting their hands on children pushing them to move forward to their seats. They were so rude, touchy and pushy with many of the students which in NO WAY is appropriate. The ushers split up the school students on each side of the theatre- and the teacher tried to explain the two different grade levels got split up but they needed to all sit together (per school code and compliance rules for field trips and number of chaperones) and the usher said he DIDNT CARE. Then began to talk behind the teachers back to the other ushers (upon which all the students heard). Based on the complaint threads I'm reading below it seems the same ushers have been doing this, with complaints, and yet the center still has them staffed and is making what should be an incredible experience for all....one that is not to be forgotten in a negative manner. For such a well known, well respected, beautiful venue, with really a wonderful message to tell in it's performace- how can you let all of your performers down by allowing this type of negligent behavior for some of your staff? What are you planning on doing about this staff behavior CFPA?

Enzian Theater is a nonprofit indie theater located north of Downtown Orlando, offering a unique and cozy atmosphere for moviegoers. It hosts cult and matinee classics, special events, and has a bar surrounded by towering oaks. The theater also organizes monthly Popcorn Flicks in the Park at Winter Park's Central Park, where films are shown on the soft grass. The overall forecast for movie theaters may be grim, but Enzian is thriving against prevailing wisdom.
I am very pleased with this lovely place, worth the drive, food was fast and delicious, and there was a nice outside seating area with a bar under a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. We had a little issue with one of our meals but the manager was SO Professional and went above and beyond to make it right. Very very good customer service 👏👏👏 for sure we will come back. Also the theater area was clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the movie and customer service there too.

WHAT A GEM! This place is so freakin cute. The staff- amazing. Andy at the bar was great! And the manager with Rainbow glasses was also so kind and welcoming. Our server Bri- also great. The food is delicious. Comfortable seats! And the bar area is DREAMY! Can’t recommend this place enough. Can’t wait to go back!!

First timer! WOW! So awesome. Comfy seats, ask for extra butter on the popcorn and they hook it up! You sit anywhere, if you need something you just put the sign up and they come right away, it’s great. We spent more on drinks and snacks than a regular movie theater but it was totally worth it. Definitely will be back. One thing to know is that once they start handing out the checks it doesn’t mean you can’t order more, you still can for another 30 mins you just need to tell them

I think The Enzian is going to be my new go-to theater! The atmosphere is amazing, with live music and a restaurant outside, and a beautiful theatre inside. If you’re watching a movie, make sure to get there early if you want a good seat selection. If you want food during the movie, you simply stand up the card at your table and someone will come to take your order. They bring the food to you and you pay towards the middle/end of the movie. I came to watch Bugonia and will definitely be returning soon!

I love coming here but the service by Noah was the worst I’ve ever experienced at the Eden Bar today. It was a busy Sunday afternoon and my friends and I wanted to order a drink before seeing a matinee movie, and we patiently waited without saying anything, understanding because it was busy, and we didn’t want to take up tables, so we stood at the corner of the bar to be out of the way, and after 10 minutes of standing at the bar without being served, Noah sashays by and says “can I help you because you’re standing in the way.” After our drinks were finally ordered and made (another 10 minutes later), the drinks were left on the bar for 10 more minutes, because the server wouldn’t serve my friends now that they were sitting at a table. He slammed a drink down on the bar in front of me and was rude to me and my friends and didn’t do much as apologize for his actions. Left a horrible taste in my mouth with the experience here.

It's an Orlando GEM and I've been a zillion times now. Cute outside bar with good happy hour deals. I love their indie movie selections and the food is actually quite good. Heads up: it's always chilly inside the theater so bring a 'movie blankie' or dress for the burrrrr

(Beware that the trail is closed to through traffic. However, it's clear on the west from Forsyth to Harrell. It's clear on the east from Dean to Rouse. It's not through between Harrell and Dean. Hurricane Ian, today is 10/13/22. It looks like a week or two are still needed to make necessary repairs.)

Nice paved multi-use trail running from Alafaya to Goldenrod, largely following the Little Econ River.

School
Established in 2008, the Orlando Circus School is dedicated to introducing circus arts to the local community. Co-owned by Victor Bryndine and Pavel Roublev, the school offers professional coaching in various circus disciplines while also focusing on fundamental skills for physical development. With classes and workshops catering to all age groups, the school aims to foster physical and emotional creativity.
This was such an amazing experience!! The instructors are so kind, patient, and encouraging. My kids went from never touching a trapeze to flipping and being caught by another person in mid air. They are gymnasts/dancers/aerialists so we have some experience but never with a trapeze. Best day ever!! Also you can snag a groupon to try it for the first time before signing up!
Sue D — Google review
I celebrated my 60th birthday by taking a trapeze class with my 30 year old daughter. It was extremely fun. One of the best days of my life! It left me feeling happy, and exhilarated. Plus it’s a powerful workout. My abdomen feels great. It’s a good feeling of soreness. I strongly encourage all physicality fit, healthy, limber, active, over 18 men and women to try this. Wear socks (shoes are not allowed) bring workout gloves (if you have them) and form fitting sweat pants. I had leggings that were too thin.
Joe S — Google review
This was absolutely amazing and we loved it! My mom and I did it for the two hours. The whole group consisted of seven people. Each person got to go eight times in the two hour period! We were able to learn new tricks and then try to catch them. Depending on your comfortability level, you were able to try something basic or more complicated. The three guys running the place were very nice, funny, and helpful. Some of them have even previously preformed with Cirque Du Soleil. After each turn, they gave you tips to improve on your next turn. There was a fully equipped trapeze rig that was full sized! If you do go, make sure you wear socks and I recommend to wear athletic pants because it does start to hurt under your knees. If you've never been on a trapeze before then you should definitely try this awesome experience! If you have been on trapeze before, then definitely keep the "Orlando Circus School" in mind for the future!
Alex C — Google review
Was searching online for circus realized they were given a 1 star review for no reason. So i figured after reading all the awesome reviews. It wouldn’t hurt to give them a 5 star review for no reason!
Adam C — Google review
It’s an awesome experience from Booking the class to the actually class. I took my took my two 9 year old boys for trapeze lesson and the staff their is encouraging, fun and supportive. Definitely will be back to try a tumbling class. Did a private one hour well worth the money.
