During your Orlando vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Skull Kingdom
As you wander the stone halls inside the Skull Castle, you'll be taunted and terrified by a cast of ghoulish characters second in central Florida only to the crew at Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights, but this show runs year-round. The night show (after 5pm) on weekends is far more intense than the day show. In any case, it's not for children under 8. Allow about 30 minutes to walk through the castle. The Chamber of Magic dinner show (all-you-can-eat pizza and drinks) can also be combined with the haunted tour.
Orlando Museum of Art
This local heavyweight handles some of the most prestigious traveling exhibits in the nation. The museum, founded in 1924, hosts special exhibits throughout the year, but even if you miss one, it's worth a stop to see its rotating permanent collection of 19th- and 20th-century American art, pre-Columbian art dating from 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1500, and African art. Allow 2 to 3 hours.
Gatorland
Founded in 1949 with only a handful of alligators living in huts and pens, Gatorland now houses thousands of alligators (including a rare blue one) and crocodiles on its 70-acre spread. Breeding pens, nurseries, and rearing ponds are situated throughout the park, which also displays snakes, toads, insects, turtles, and a Galápagos tortoise. Its 2,000-foot boardwalk winds through a cypress swamp and breeding marsh. There are four shows. Gator Wrestlin' uses the old "put-them-to-sleep" trick, but it's more of an environmental awareness program. The Gator Jumparoo is a crowd-pleaser in which the big reptiles lunge 4 or 5 feet out of the water to snatch a hunk of meat from a trainer's hand. Up Close Encounters is a new show that features a variety of wildlife, including some venomous snakes. And Jungle Crocs of the World showcases some of the world's toothiest carnivores. Younger kids will enjoy the new train ride through the park; Lilly's Pad, a wet and dry play area; and Allie's Barnyard, a small petting zoo. While you're here, try the smoked gator ribs or nuggets in the open-air restaurant, or grab a gator-skin souvenir in the gift shop. Allow 4 to 5 hours. Tip: Look for additional parking, a whole new facade, and additional landscaping to be added as the park undergoes an extensive million-dollar renovation in 2005 -- its largest in over 10 years.Note: Gatorland's new Trainer for a Day program lets up to five guests get up close and personal with the gators for a day (or two hours in this case). The $100, 2-hour experience puts you side by side with trainers and includes a chance to wrangle some alligators (minimum age 12). Advance reservations are required, and admission to the park is included.Tip: Printable discount coupons and special Internet ticket prices are available at the park's website. Be sure to check it out before you leave home.
Hampton Inn at Universal Studios
There's nothing fancy about this simple hotel, but it's in a good location if you plan to spend most of your time at Universal Orlando, which is only 2 blocks away. It's also relatively close to SeaWorld and Downtown Orlando and about 10 miles from Disney. Some rooms have microwaves and refrigerators. Although there's no restaurant on the premises, there are several within walking distance.
Marriott's Orlando World Center
An upscale resort that caters to both business and leisure travelers alike. Golf, tennis, and spa lovers will find plenty to do at this 230-acre resort, as will families. The lobby's centerpiece is a 28-story tower fronted by flowers and fountains. The large, comfortable and beautifully decorated rooms sleep four, and the higher poolside floors offer views of Disney. For a large-scale resort, it is surprisingly easy to get around, as it is not spread out, so much as up. The largest of its five pools has water slides and waterfalls surrounded by plenty of space to relax among the palm trees and tropical plants. There's plenty of dining right on site ranging from counter service casual to fine dining; the Mikado Japanese Steakhouse headlines the hotel's four restaurants. The location, only 2 miles from the Disney parks, is a fabulous plus. The large, comfortable and beautifully decorated rooms sleep four, and the higher poolside floors offer views of Disney.Facilities: 4 restaurants; 2 lounges; 3 heated outdoor pools; heated indoor pool; kids' pool; 18-hole golf course; 8 lighted tennis courts; health club; spa; whirlpool; sauna; concierge; car-rental desk; transportation to all theme parks for a fee; business center; salon; 24-hr. room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service.
Fairfield Inn International Drive
If you're looking for I-Drive's best value, it's hard to beat this one. This Fairfield combines a quiet location off the main drag, down-to-earth rates, and a clean, modern motel in one package. It's not only the best in this category, but arguably a half step ahead of the Hampton, La Quinta, and Sierra Suites in the previous one. The rooms are very comfortable, the staff is friendly, and there are a number of restaurants within walking distance of the hotel.
