Orlando Further Distractions
An aviation-themed museum with a difference, this one-off attraction just south of Kissimmee offers a clever ‘immersion experience' into the history of flight, with flight simulators, an extensive vintage aircraft collection and fascinating behind-the-scenes tours. Stay for lunch or dinner at their lovely Compass Rose 1930s vintage diner.

Boggy Creek Airboats
For a journey out into the real Florida, head to one of Boggy Creek's two locations in Kissimmee for their half-hour airboat ride around one of the local lakes, taking in the alligators and other animal life of the area. Better still, try their one-hour night tour when they go out to find 'gators in the dark - and their eyes glow red!
