About the destination: Orlando, located in Orange County, Florida, has a lot to offer tourists, but it is safe to say that the main reason people visit Orlando is for the variety of amusement parks: Disney World, Universal Orlando, Sea World, and several other big draw entertainment places. Nonetheless, Orlando has so much more. Beautiful tree-lined neighbourhoods, a happening performing-arts scene and various excellent gardens, nature preserves and museums around the city offers visitors amusing alternatives to the theme park experience. If the outdoors is your thing, you can swim or canoe at Wekiwa Springs State Park or one of the area's many other sparkling springs. If museums are your thing, there are many and varied options such as the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art with its huge collection of Tiffany glass, or the Orlando Science Center, with hundreds of interactive exhibits for visitors of all ages. The city has a very 'young at heart' attitude, and it is a melting pot of different cultures. For nightlife, there is pretty much anything you want. The downtown area has several bars and clubs for any crowd. In a nutshell, Orlando is truly a very cool town.

About the destination:

Aan de westkust van Florida ligt Naples, ook wel de Paradise Coast genoemd vanwege haar 16 kilometer lange wiite zandstrand. De naam Naples is afgeleid van de stad Napels in Italie. Dit komt vanwege de overeenkomst qua ligging in de prachtige baai. Daarnaast doet Naples ook mediterraans aan. Naples is een gezellige plaats om aan te doen tijdens uw rondreis door Florida. Er is genoeg te doen en te ontdekken voor de hele familie. In de historische binnenstad van Naples, Old Naples, vindt u de oude charme van Florida terug. De echte stop liefhebber gaat naar Tin City. Dit overdekte winkelcentrum ligt in een oude vissersverf die allemaal zijn voorzien van tinnendaken. Hiervandaan vertrekken ook vele boottochten. Breng ook een bezoek aan de Naples Pier. Het is een populaire plek om te genieten van het geweldige uitzicht en uiteraard te vissen. Gaat u wat later op de dag, geniet dan van de mooie zonsondergang. Vanaf de pier is het mogelijk om dolfijnen en zeeschildpadden te spotten. Naples is tevens de toegangspoort tot de Everglades. Dit

moerras gebied is gelegen tussen Naples en Miami.

About the destination: Miami Beach is everything you've heard about, but you have to see it for yourself. Take an Art Deco tour of Miami Beach to fully appreciate the area's signature architecture. The South Beach Art Deco District is a whimsical collection of more than 800 architecturally protected buildings in Miami Beach from the 1930s and 1940s – a definite must-see. Stay in one of its boutique or throwback hotels – you'll also find some of Miami Beach's finest dining, nightlife and spas here. North Beach's Ocean Terrace is fast becoming a smaller version of South Beach, with inviting oceanfront hotels and cafés. Regardless, be sure to go for a beachside stroll or to Haulover Park for fishing, bike rides, tennis or golf. And, of course, Miami Beach’s nightlife always concludes an unforgettable vacation day.
