Stop and smell the roses (literally) as you stroll through Leu Gardens. The beautifully cultivated grounds are home to over 40 diverse plant collections from around the world. Highlights include a tropical rainforest, butterfly garden, and awe-inspiring forests of camphor trees, elms, and 200-year-old oaks.

Beat the Florida heat with a day trip to Wekiwa Springs State Park. Explore the nature trails before cooling off at the swimming hole. Rent a kayak or canoe to explore the Wekiva River, then paddle yourself all the way to a crystal-clear, 72-degree spring for swimming and snorkeling.

Pack up the car for a visit to Bok Tower Gardens. Enjoy a hike through the gardens and be sure to stop by the famous Singing Tower, one of the few Carillons in the world. Plus, keep your eyes peeled — you may be lucky enough to sight a few of the garden’s 126 different species of birds.

Wakeboarding, stand-up paddleboarding, and an Aquapark with floating obstacle courses? Check, yes! Make your way to OWC for some of the best lake-borne action Orlando can deliver. No special skills are required, life jackets are provided, and hours of fun are guaranteed.

Navigate your way through an aerial obstacle course set high atop the trees in a natural pine forest. Orlando Tree Trek is a 15-acre, outdoor adventure park designed for guests ages 7 and up, and features 97 challenging games, four obstacle courses, two separate kid’s courses, and a 425-foot zip line.
