City Information

Orlando

Orlando is the Theme Park Capital of the World, thanks to the high density of thrilling parks like Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, SeaWorld, LEGOLAND, Gatorland and more. It's no wonder we rated Orlando the #1 travel destination for families. Family vacation or not, if the highlight of your trip is picking out a wand at Ollivanders in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter or finally meeting Elsa in the Magic Kingdom, you know we won't judge.

Winter Park and Thornton Park – not more theme parks, we promise – are trendy neighborhoods where you can experience some of Orlando's world-class shopping, dining, and craft beer. You can also immerse yourself in some of Florida's unique wildlife at Orlando Wetlands Park, or the more central Lake Eola Park downtown. Orlando enjoys an average of 233 days of sunshine a year, so even though it's one of the cheapest cities to visit over Spring Break, you'll soak up that sweet, sweet sun almost any time of year.

Craving the ocean? Head a few hours outside Orlando for some of Florida's gorgeous beaches like New Smyrna Beach, Cocoa Beach, and the Canaveral National Seashore. Two large airports, as well as many bus and train companies with service in the area, mean that traveling from Orlando to other sunny Florida destinations and beyond is a breeze.

Key West is the southernmost city in the contiguous U.S. and a popular tourist destination in Florida. Known for its abundance of sea wildlife, Key West is a fantastic place for you to book a boat tour and enjoy the Gulf of Mexico's coral reefs. Tours also offer unique opportunities like dolphin watching, snorkeling, and much more. For the best beach around, head toward the Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park, where you can sunbathe and fish with ease. The Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory is a magical spot to learn more about different butterfly variations.

Seafood is still the staple of Key West's cuisine, but the distinct Caribbean and Cuban touch will set the city's food scene apart from others. For the best authentic Cuban specialties, try El Siboney. If you enjoy classic Floridan dishes, Blue Heaven will not disappoint you.

Although Key West is an island city on the Florida Keys archipelago, the Overseas Highway connects to the mainland. This means you can easily catch a bus directly to Key West. Domestic and international flights go through the centrally-located Key West International Airport.
