17 days in Orlando Itinerary

For most people, any mention of Orlando immediately conjures up images of sprawling theme parks filled with characters plucked right out of popular animated movies.

Kids will enjoy Walt Disney World Resort and Universal Orlando Resort. Change things up with these side-trips from Orlando: NASA Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex (in Titusville), Busch Gardens (in Tampa) and Dunlawton Sugar Mill Gardens (in Port Orange). Pack the 18th (Sat) with family-friendly diversions at Universal's Islands of Adventure. Have a day of magic on the 23rd (Thu) at Disney's Animal Kingdom. And it doesn't end there: make an unforgettable trip to Magic Kingdom Park, get in on the family fun at SeaWorld Orlando, laugh and play at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and play a few rounds at Pirate's Cove Adventure Golf.
