Day 2: Discover the I-Drive Entertainment District
Begin your day at ICON Park, a vibrant and walkable entertainment complex filled with exciting attractions, unique shops, and local restaurants. Take a ride on The Orlando Eye, a 400-foot observation wheel that offers panoramic views of the city skyline and nearby theme parks. Inside the complex, explore immersive attractions like Madame Tussauds, where you can snap selfies with lifelike wax figures of your favorite celebrities, and SEA LIFE Aquarium, home to a dazzling 360-degree ocean tunnel and up-close encounters with sharks, stingrays, and rescued sea turtles. For those who crave a thrill, the Orlando StarFlyer, the world’s tallest swing ride, sends you soaring above the city for a high-flying adventure.
From there, dive into more of International Drive’s family-friendly fun. Just across the street from the resort, Gator Golf offers a unique round of mini golf complete with live gators. Get hands-on at WonderWorks or uncover the bizarre at Ripley’s Believe It or Not.
As evening approaches, head to Pointe Orlando for a lively mix of boutique shops, dining, and entertainment. Whether you’re enjoying dinner, catching a live show, or simply soaking in the atmosphere, it’s the perfect way to end the day.
Getting around is easy with the I-Ride Trolley, which stops right outside the resort and runs daily from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. For just six dollars a day, you can hop between attractions, shopping, and dining throughout the I-Drive corridor.
Back at the resort, unwind with a dip in the pool or whirlpool spa. Then grab a cocktail and casual bites from the Poolside Bar & Grill, open daily until 11:00 p.m., to round out a day full of adventure.
