Disney World Epcot Center GlobeAsk most people about Orlando, Florida, and they’ll mention theme parks like Disney World, Universal Studios, and Sea World.

And these places can be a lot of fun, but believe it or not, there’s more for visitors to the Orlando area to do than just riding roller coasters and clapping for Shamu.

Find out about great activities that the whole family might actually enjoy that don’t involve standing in line or overpriced corn dogs.

    I’d also recommend The History Center in downtown Orlando, the Enzian Theater in Maitland, or a day out at Buena Vista WaterSports in Lake Buena Vista.

    Don’t forget Lake Eola Park’s Sunday farmer’s market, The Harry P. Leu Gardens, an outdoor oasis, and Wekiwa Springs for kayaking and wildlife spotting! These are all within a thirty to forty minute drive of the theme parks!
