Florida, the land of sunshine, as George A. Romero often likes put it, is a great vacation spot for tourists of all ages. The region is lined up with parks, restaurants, jungle like marsh landscapes and its very own set of beaches. All in all, for tourists, Florida can be a tropical paradise that’s got its unique mix of multi cultured cuisine and wines.
However, on the grim side, all that stuff won’t do you good if you’re someone, maybe a foreign tourists, who wants to pay a trip to a couple of places in Florida but doesn’t know where to start from. So here’s a little guide to all the interested folks who really want to get to know that “sunny” side of Florida. Take a look below:
- Orlando – Where The Magic Begins:
o Orlando is right where people get enchanted; it’s the place of magic and immense enjoyment. We’re talking about Disney World; the place has been the heart of interest for all kinds of tourists and vacationers. How so? Well let’s see,
§ Disney World has got a cinematically enlarged resemblance to a fairytale. There’s a Tree of Life that has its roots spawning off into Animal Kingdom. If you and your loved ones are visiting Orlando Disney World during holiday or summer season, do know this that all the hot spots get filled up quickly.
§ The Disney MGM studio is also in there, right by a larger than life Star Sorcerer’s Hat.
§ The dazzling landmarks look even livelier if they’re visited at night. Vacationers simply fall in love with the lightning arrangements. Oh, speaking of lightning, the fireworks are a piece of art – you have to see it all to believe it.
o By the way, the second most common resort in Orlando is Universal Studios. The place is equally entertaining as Disney World, so you have to visit them both.
§ Universal Studios has a main theme park that recently got expanded into 6 different smaller theme parks. Each of them has its own theme.
§ Don’t forget to miss the comfort of Lowes hotels; they’re romantic for couples and highly enjoyable for families.
- Florida Keys :
o Next on the stop is the magnificent string of highways in Florida. These highways string together 30 of Florida Keys, which makes it possible for travelers to move back and forth between lush green islands and the watery coastline alongside the Caribbean Blue.
o Due to the recent BP oil spill disaster, some of the areas are still not as good as they used to be. Especially the Key West region and the area where everything dips into the Gulf of Mexico, it’s kind of in need of maintenance.
o The good news is that Keys is still open for water sports of all kinds. Plus, fishermen can bask in the ambience of fishing because it doesn’t really matter whether you’re an expert or a newbie – just enjoy it all while it lasts because vacations are meant for that kind of stuff.
- The Tampa Bay Area:
o It does make it a little hard for people to go to Tampa instead of plopping around in Miami and Orlando because the later areas are glitterier. But when we talk about Tampa, a dazing picture of small town ambience, stranded aside from city lights and hurly burlies comes into the mind.
o Tamp has a rich nightlife which is definitely meant for adult tourists.
o Families can go for Busch Gardens; it’s a theme park that’s famous for its thrilling roller coaster rides. There’s the aquarium, which kids like to call: “The Aquarium”; the place is quite full with all kinds of underwater life.
- Miami :
o This is where the fun really starts. Young and “glamor” loving party tourists simply fall in love with Miami’s nightlife. The clubs buzz with a mixture of droplets of sweat, perfume, the right kind of rhythm to make anyone shake his/her stuff, and a cosmopolitan confluence of different cultures.
o Daytime vacationers can take a walk across the Miami Beach. This place has the “sights” and enough glowy sand to play a few games of catch.
o While you’re at it as a couple, the Jet Ski rides, scuba diving and kayaking are something to try out for once at least.
o Oh, and children can hang around at the Seaquarium and the Museum, with their jaws hanging by a string – the areas are quite awesome for sightseers.
