9 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.

You've added House of Blues, World of Chocolate Museum and Cafe, Mad Cow Theatre, and other attractions to your itinerary. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Nature & Wildlife Tours and Disney's Boardwalk. Go for a jaunt from Orlando to DeLand to see Stetson Mansion about 50 minutes away. Next up on the itinerary: look for gifts at The LEGO Store, get up close and personal with brilliant marine life at SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium, make a splash at Aquatica, and buy something for everyone on your list at The Florida Mall.
