Orlando

Orlando is one of the top destinations for British travellers heading for the USA and with good reason given the plethora of family friendly attractions that are located in this area of Florida.

Widely regarded as the theme park capital of the world, Orlando is home to Walt Disney World, Universal Studios and the Kennedy Space Centre – amongst others – which means it is the ideal place to visit if you have children in tow.

One thing that adds to the appeal of Orlando as a tourist destination is the weather, which should be in your favour no matter what time of year you visit.

In the height of summer, the temperatures can run into the 30s although the levels of humidity can make it appear to be warmer.

Even in winter however, the conditions will be relatively mild – and they’ll certainly be an improvement over the weather back home.

Whilst there is little doubt that it is the theme parks that draw many people to Orlando, it shouldn’t be viewed as the only reason why you’d choose it for a holiday.

There are plenty of options for those who want to enjoy some world class shopping or fancy dining in some of the best restaurants around, whilst there are more golf courses than you can shake the proverbial stick at if you fancy getting a round in.

Within easy reach of Orlando, there are top class beaches where you can relax in the sun or you could head for the famous Everglades to explore unspoilt wetlands that are packed with wildlife.

If you want to live the American dream, then Orlando might just be the place for you.
