1-Day Trip to Orlando Florida: Where To Go

Posted on April 03, 2025

Morning: Fuel Up for a Fun Day in O-Town

Before your activity-filled trip begins, ease into the day with a peaceful morning in O-Town. Start with a leisurely stroll around College Park, or grab a delicious breakfast from one of the neighborhood’s cozy eateries (there are plenty!) If you prefer a lakeside view, Lake Eola Park downtown is perfect for a morning walk or watching swan boats glide across the water.

Feeling refreshed and fueled up? Ready your tickets to Orlando Florida’s best spots––it’s time for some adventure!

Throughout the Day: Pick a Theme... Park!

Four people are posing with a wax superhero figure. The superhero is in a strong pose, holding a metal beam above his head as the group joins in the fun, pretending to lift the beam together. The setting features a brick wall and cityscape backdrop, adding to the heroic theme. The group appears cheerful and engaged in the playful scenario.

In this city, you don’t just pick an attraction—you pick a parallel universe. Whether you visit Disney World, “The Happiest Place on Earth", or Universal Studios, where movies and thrilling rides collide, you can’t go wrong with a day at one of these legendary theme parks. Want to skip the long lines? Make sure to grab tickets to the top attractions in advance!

Not a theme park fan? No worries—this city has plenty more to offer! Meet your favorite celebrities (rather, their wax counterparts) at Madame Tussauds, get up close with some alligators at Gatorland, or take in the fun mind-boggling scenes at the Museum of Illusions.

Evening: Kick Back and Relax

A large Ferris wheel with illuminated spokes stands prominently on the right side of the image, featuring three cabins visible. The background showcases a sprawling cityscape under a dimming sky with a blend of modern and traditional buildings, lush greenery, and a distant body of water, all captured during sunset.

As the sun sets, you might want to start winding down, too. Start your evening with a relaxing ride on The Wheel at ICON Park, where you can take in breathtaking views of the city skyline. From there, explore some of the best nightlife spots in the Downtown area. Indulge in a nightcap, grab a hearty dinner, or you can even keep the party going––we won’t judge!

Settle In, Be Comfortable

For an even better night, consider staying at one of the city’s top hotels. Resorts like the Hyatt offer a luxurious stay, while Waldorf Astoria Orlando - An Official Walt Disney World® Hotel and Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld provide easy access to the parks, so you can end your day steps away from the fun.
