A small town in central Florida, Kissimmee is a popular destination for fans of amusement parks and other landmarks. The city is very close to many different amusement parks, including the world-famous Walt Disney World Resort, which is why Kissimmee is a popular place to stay for park-goers. Other surrounding amusement parks to check out include the Universal Orlando Resort and the SeaWorld Parks & Resorts. If amusement parks are not your thing, you could also check out the local Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition, which showcases artifacts related to the ill-fated ship. And don't miss the Bok Tower Gardens, which offers an amazing green space for picnics.
If you wish to try the best dishes in town, try Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House, which offers some of the best authentically American steaks in town, coupled with fine wine. Another great choice is Jaleo, run by the award-winning chef José Andrés.

A culturally-rich alternative to the nearby theme parks of Orlando, Sarasota's Gulf Coast location is hard to resist. It became the winter base for many well-to-do families in the early twentieth century, during which time much of the town developed a subtle Italian feel.
Not only is the climate similar to what you might experience in southern Italy, but many of Sarasota's buildings were constructed to resemble the country's renaissance masterworks too. A good example is the Ringling family's Ca' d'Zan Venetian-style mansion.
The Ringlings made their money from circuses before giving their name to the much-celebrated John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art. It contains 21 galleries of European paintings, archaeological artifacts, and American art totaling 10,000 objects.
With weather so fine, you'll probably be looking with more than half an eye at Sarasota's numerous excellent resorts and beaches, many of which lie on a group of keys within the city limits. Bonus: our research ranked Sarasota as the #3 cheapest Spring Break destination, so you can soak up the sun on the cheap.
Arriving in Sarasota is equally easy thanks to its Cattleman Transfer Centre and Fruitville Road bus stations. Between them, travelers can connect by bus everywhere from Tampa to Tucson. Amtrak also operates a Thruway bus service from the defunct Sarasota rail station to Tampa for onward connections by train on the Silver Service. This service runs between Miami and New York City via Washington, D.C.
