Here’s a list of some of our favorites so you can start planning today!
Chocolate Kingdom Factory Tour
Indulge your sweet tooth and be entertained with a fun adventure, as well as the candy that just about everyone enjoys: chocolate. Chocolate Kingdom, the Factory Adventure Tour, is an interactive tour that takes you from the cocoa bean through the manufacturing process, all the way to the creamy, delicious chocolate treats you love. Your Personal Chocolate Tour Guide is joined by the handsome prince, as well as the prince’s dragon sidekick. Together, they’ll guide you through the Cacao Tree Greenhouse, a one-of-a-kind Chocolate Museum, the Mystical River of Chocolate, and finally on to the Micro Batch Bean-to-the-Bar Factory that utilizes old-world machinery to produce yummy chocolate treats. It’s not just a tour! You’ll enjoy samples throughout the 45-minute tour, and for an additional fee, you can customize your own chocolate bar from a variety of sweet ingredients!
Madame Tussauds Orlando
While not on everyone’s radar for Orlando fun, it’s a can’t-miss stop. Located on International Drive with many of the other must-see attractions of the area, Madame Tussauds wax museum features life-size and life-like wax models of many of the U.S.’s top actors, sports stars, pop icons, political and historical figures, and many others. Each category or group of stars and celebrities is housed in its own room, with figures organized and placed in such a way that begs for fun and silly photos – with you in the picture, too! If you want to see yourself carved in wax, it takes three to four months for the professional team of artists and sculptors to perfect your image using over 200 different body measurements to capture everything that’s unique about you.
Ripley’s Believe It Or Not!
Experience the weird and fascinating on your Orlando adventure. You’ll see artifacts and displays that will have you exclaiming “I don’t believe it!” The strange collection of oddities includes a shrunken human head, odd, fossilized creatures, and many other pieces from world traveler Robert Ripley’s crazy collection, curated over many years. Another unbelievable exhibit centers around Mr. Ripley himself: at the height of his career, he averaged 3,000 letters a day for over 20 years, receiving more mail than any other individual in history to that point.
Universal Studios
The first thing that comes to mind when tourists think of Orlando is the many theme parks. If making the rounds of those parks is your goal this visit, don’t forget to add the popular destination of Universal Studios. Step into the fun and whimsical wonderland of some of your favorite movies, shows, and characters. Spongebob Squarepants and friends, The Simpsons, Despicable Me characters, Transformers, and many more characters are featured throughout the park’s rides, shows, and other tourist attractions in orlando to keep you busy on a full day at the park.
Walt Disney World
It’s the Happiest Place on Earth, and often the first thought of when the city of Orlando comes up in conversation as a vacation destination. A visit there is often at the top of the list for families and Disney fans of all ages. There is an endless amount of fun to be had between the four parks, including parades down the Magic Kingdom’s Main Street, USA to rides, shows, and character encounters throughout each of the parks. “Climb” Mount Kilimanjaro at Animal Kingdom, celebrate movie history at Hollywood Studios, or see the world without leaving the park at Epcot. You can make any or all of the four parks the focus of your trip or spend a single day at your favorite park. After you’ve enjoyed the park from the visitors’ perspective, book a VIP behind-the-scenes tour of your favorite park to see its inner workings.
