TOP THINGS TO DO IN ORLANDO (THAT AREN'T THEME PARKS)

Not interested in riding roller coasters and adrenaline filled days in Orlando? You don't have to go to Disney World or Harry Potter world to enjoy your time. We break down the top things to do in Orlando besides theme parks.

1. Have Lunch with an Astronaut at NASA

Hear an Astronauts first hand account of their time in space whilst enjoying a tasty lunch. Also while you're there take a tour through the Kennedy Space Center.

2. Go Shopping and stare in awe at the giant M&M store

Everything is on show in Orlando including the shops. You can't help but take a double look when you walk past your first M&M Store. You also can't help buying the store when you walk in.

3. Go For a Hot Air Balloon Ride

See the beautiful and luscious green Orlando from the air. Get away from the city and see the sunrise on the countryside of Florida.

4. Go to a Dinner Show

 Eat dinner whilst watching a production show is a great alternative to dinner and movie. We went to the Arabian Nights dinner show but there are plenty of others including Medieval and Al Capone theme dinners.

5. Titanic the Experience

 It may not seem as invigorating as some of the other tours but being the massive movie and history fans that we are we thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Titanic Experience.

6. Go to the Wonderworks building

We happened to stumble on this building after catching a movie. The intriguing architecture of the upside down building is worth seeing in person.

Zip Lining is a great way to start becoming an adrenaline junkie. If you haven't been to Asia or the Caribbean why not go here?
