If you’re coming to Florida on vacation, you’re most likely going to wind up in Orlando at some point. Such is the draw of the Mouse.

If so, you may want to check out some of the hotel guides and the Orlando city guide I’ve linked to. What I like about the guide is that it shows a simple map that gives you a hint that there’s more to Orlando than just Disney World. In fact, they even include Leu Gardens, a favorite of locals, especially guys looking for a beautiful, quiet, romantic place to ask their girlfriend’s an important question.

Not me, of course. The one time I did THAT in Orlando, I was forced to do it in the parking lot of Fashion Square Mall. But, that’s a WHOLE different story.

I also like that this one city guide is actually like a mini-portal to Orlando. There are dozens of hotels linked from the sidebar, along with an events list, online resources, and even blog posts about Orlando. It’s a good way to get a thumbnail sketch for the city and the surrounding area without getting overwhelmed.
