Orlando - The City Beautiful

by orlandohelper - last update: Feb 14, 2005

Orlando is alot more then just theme parks, and tourist attractions. It is a city of itself. A great city that many visitors never get a full taste of because of the theme parks that have grown to absorb tourists and never give them the slightest taste of the real Orlando. Next time you come to Orlando spend a day or 2 away from the theme parks and attractions area and pay a nice visit to Downtown Orlando, Loch Haven Park, and Winter Park. Take an Orlando experience and maybe even stay in a downtown hotel where you will still be able to catch a bus or taxi to the theme parks but you will be in the heart of Orlando. The city motto does a great job in describing our city in one phrase, Orlando, the city beautiful.

Pros:"There are so many that it takes more then this small space to list at least a few of them."
Cons:"nearly none"
In A Nutshell:"A golden city past the theme parks and tourist traps"

 My favorite transportation company in Orlando is VIP Transportation - www.vip-trans.at.ua. They have fixed rates - traffic or no traffic - you pay the same amount! Last time using their service i received 10% discount as a returning customer!

 Oh my God, NO! By far the worst.These companies are the worst. Never ever again! The best way is full service transportation companies, like Tropicana Transportation, they beat taxi's in everyway. www.TropicanaTransportation.com I highly recommend them.
