Best Things to Do in Orlando for Couples and Small Families

Traveling Twosomes – Best Things to Do in Orlando for Couples & Small Families

We can pretty much guarantee that the words ‘romantic’, ‘couples destination’, or ‘couples getaway’ are probably not the first words that come to mind to describe Orlando. However, did you know that Orlando continuously tops Amazon.com’s “Top 20 Most Romantic Cities in the U.S”? Surprised? So were we! So the OVH 360 team decided to investigate just why this is. What we discovered is that Orlando has a variety of activities for couples- it all depends on your definition of ‘romance’!

Let’s look at the best things to do in Orlando for couples and Small Families.

Nature Lovers

For nature lovers, the Florida Everglades National Park spans over 1.5 million acres and is not to be missed! It really is a wonderful place to hike trails, bird watch, camp, fish, slough slogs (off trail hiking), canoe or kayak. The Park also offers guided boat tours, air boat tours, ranger-led activities, and geocaching (GPS treasure hunts). Experience the wilderness while searching for wildlife like bald eagles, alligators, dolphins and manatees! With all these activities, you could spend hours or days in the Park. If you’re looking for something a little more relaxed, the Harry P Leu Gardens are a beautiful place to take a stroll. Feeling really romantic? Surprise your other half with an impromptu picnic under the quintessentially southern moss draped oaks. Nature and wine, do you like the sound of that combo? If that sounds like something you would enjoy, venture out to Lakeridge Winery & Vineyard.

Here, you can sample some of Florida’s finest wines while enjoying some picturesque views. Free winery tours and complimentary tastings are available every day of the week until 5pm.

An Evening Out

If you and your honey relish fine dithning, drinks and dancing, Orlando has plenty of options to offer. Let’s begin with the numerous selection of romantic restaurants which are sure to please any taste. Look no further than the Bull and Bear in the Waldorf Astoria, Christner’s Prime Steak & Lobster, Kres Chop House and Eddie Vs Prime Seafood- all of these are fantastic steakhouses which will satisfy any carnivore’s craving! In the mood for something more international? There are several highly rated European cuisine eateries like Paris Bistro, Ceviche Tapas Bar & Restaurant, Chatham’s Place Restaurant, Enzo’s on the Lake or Le Coq Au Vin. Très romantique!

After dining, work off those calories, dancing the night away at one of these venues: Orlando Swing, the posh Vanity, the trendy yet intimate Vixen, or the country-themed Cowboys Orlando. Rather be sipping a few cocktails while listening to some of Florida’s most talented muscians? Check out live jazz at the Bosendorfer Lounge located in the classy and elegant Grand Bohemian Hotel in downtown Orlando.

Adventure Seekers

If you consider yourselves as the more ‘sporty’ or ‘adventurous’ couple, you might find some of these escapades appealing. If you don’t fear heights, you will love the new Orlando Eye on International Drive. The giant ferris wheel towers 400 feet above Orlando. Each capsule holds up to 15 people and takes about a half hour to make a full circle. If you are feeling super romantic, you can actually book a capsule for a special evening and sip champagne while you take in the sprawling, sparkling lights of Orlando.

Want more aerial city views? Try a once in a life time experience of soaring 2000 feet above the Orlando area in a hot air balloon at sunrise. The Orlando Sunrise Hot-Air Balloon Ride includes a champagne toast, snacks, and a guided tour floating above the amusement parks, orange groves, and lakes! If you prefer evenings, try Sunset Air Tour. A small plane will fly you over similar sights at sunset. Book the company’s ‘Fireworks Tour’ to experience Disney’s Nighttime Spectacular fireworks show while you hover above in the air.

For a truly magical nature experience, try a bioluminescence paddle at night. This is where the cells of living organisms have chemical reactions and create a natural light show as marine life swims by in the water. Several companies operate in the area. It just depends on if you want to kayak, canoe or paddleboard. These are all some of the best things to do in Orlando for couples.

So whether it’s nature, adventure, or night time fun, there is a little something for every couple or smaller family when you visit Orlando.
