The sunny southern eastern state of Florida has long been billed as a fantastic holiday destination because of its fine weather and huge array of theme parks. But once you've had your fill of rides and rollercoasters there's still lots to do and see in Florida, whether it's the history of the area or its fascinating natural landscape.
Starting off with the lesser known destination of St. Augustine, which is America's oldest city, founded in 1565, and features old colonial Spanish neighbourhoods. You can get to know the city on a Hop-On hotel downtown disney orlandoflorida Hop-Off Trolley Tour , which stops at 19 different points in the city, allowing you to see sights such as the oldest house in the city, and Ripley's Believe It or Not!. If you think you could handle something a little spookier, there's a Ghosts and Gravestones Tour of St. Augustine on offer, which begins at 8pm at night and takes in the Old Jail, built in 1891, which may or may not be haunted! Another hotel downtown disney orlandoflorida way to see the city is from the air – there are a number of helicopter rides of the area available, such as the St. Augustine, Fort Matanzas, and Downtown Helicopter tour , which brings you along the coast, hotel downtown disney orlandoflorida up the Matanza River while offering views of many sites in the area.
Moving on to one of the better-known spots in Florida, Tampa, which is close to a number of theme parks, including the newly opened Legoland Ò Florida , which is located in Winter Haven, between hotel downtown disney orlandoflorida Tampa and Orlando. The park is aimed at families with children aged 2-12, is set on 150 acres, and is home to many rides and attractions, including Miniland USA. If you'd like to see some wild animals up close you could pay a visit to the famous Busch Gardens where you'll get to see many endangered and exotic animals, as well as rides and live entertainment. Florida is well known for its dolphins, and these mammals can be seen out in the wild on a boat ride from The Florida Aquarium in Tampa Bay . The bay is home to 400 bottlenose dolphins as well as birds and fish of course, and you'll be looking to catch a glimpse of them from the 72 ft catamaran named Bay Spirit II. And if you can't get enough of the Bay, you might fancy the Clearwater Evening hotel downtown disney orlandoflorida Dance Cruise , which features dinner and a live band aboard a cruise ship in Tampa Bay. There's lots of hotels to choose from in Tampa too, such as the Tampa Marriott Waterside Hotel Marina which allows boat users to dock and stay, as well as offering a Spa, Jacuzzi and rooftop pool. Another option could be the Sandpearl Resort for those who fancy a beach resort, which boasts Resort Enrichment programmes such as kayak and canoe trips, an artist in residence and bird watching.
The Fort Lauderdale area is also a famous tourist spot, with its beaches and cruise ships (and water taxi system!) and while you could enjoy all that this modern city has to offer by way of shopping and dining, it also has much to offer in terms of nature excursions, such as the famous Florida Everglades. This natural landscape can be experienced by airboat, on the Florida Everglades hotel downtown disney orlandoflorida Airboat Adventure and Wildlife Encounter Ticket . Departing from Sawgrass Recreation Park, on this tour you'll get to see the Everglades and its wildlife on a 30 minute, up to 40 mph airboat ride, before returning to the Park to see panthers, alligators, leopards and other wild animals, as well as being given the opportunity to hold a baby alligator. A stay in Fort Lauderdale can also include a beach experience, at an hotel such as the Atlantic Hotel , overlooking the beach and close to galleries, restaurants, and shops.
When you think of old Florida you may think of the steamboats that travel up and down the river, and you can get a feel for what a journey abroad one of these grand looking vessels might have felt like (albeit the modern boats are diesel powered!), on a trip on the Jungle Queen Riverboat cruise and see sights such as the Jungle Queen Indian Village, where you'll get to learn about the Florida Seminole tribe.
