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.

Are you ready for some fun under the sun? Miami Beach is a popular tourist attraction in Florida, and for good reason! The crown attraction of the city is South Beach, nicknamed America's Riviera. This vast beach features soft white sand and an extensive range of activities to enjoy, from pampering yourself at a spa to spending the whole day window-shopping at the local shopping venues. Soak up some history with your sun at the Ancient Spanish Monastery, a unique architectural site preserved for over 800 years. The local Miami Children's Museum is a great spot to give little ones' sunburned skin a break.
Miami Beach is much more than just a place to get seafood. The local Cuban food scene is bustling with activities, like at the local favorite Las Olas Café. Another option is Joe's Stone Crab, home to some of the best crab dishes around.
Most transport options depart from Miami Beach's big sister, Miami, including from the Miami International Airport. However, FlixBus US and Jet Set Express offer direct bus service to Miami Beach so that you can get your toes in the sand faster.
