You'll have a full day of exploration on this excursion including two lakes, shopping, dining, and entertainment as only Disney Springs can do, and adventures galore at the ICON 360.
This excursion is available for both visitors on vacation in the Orlando area and guests either before or after their cruise out of Port Canaveral. There are several meeting points in Orlando where you can catch the transportation. Meet your guide and hop aboard. At your first stop, you'll be able to stroll around Lake Eola Park, in downtown Orlando. Be sure to stop and admire not only its centerpiece, the Linton E. Allen Memorial Fountain built in 1957, but also the eight modern art sculptures that circle the lake.
Your second stop will take place with a scenic boat on the Chain of Lakes, a series of 24 man-made lakes connected by a canal. Here you'll be able to take a peek at gorgeous private homes and estates along the shores. You will also enjoy the sight of native flora and fauna including alligators and cypress trees. This portion offers a relaxing sightseeing moment.
When it's time for a break for lunch, you'll be able to choose from over 60 diverse dining options at Disney Springs. This shopping, dining, and entertainment complex is divided into four areas, each reflecting the function and the fictional period when it was developed. The American Craftsman-styled Marketplace includes the highlights the Earl of Sandwich restaurant, the T-Rex Cafe with animatronic dinosaurs, the Rainforest Cafe and the Lego Store. The nautically themed Landing houses even more restaurants and shops. Disney Springs Town Center is where you'll find the actual springs the complex is named after. There are over a hundred shops to tempt your wallet! Please note that the cost of lunch is not included.
Your final stop of the day will be ICON 360 where your admission ticket is included. From atop this 400-foot tall Observation Ferris Wheel, you will be able to enjoy the gorgeous Orlando scenic view below. The full circuit ride takes approximately 25 minutes. Also on site is a collection of shops, restaurants, and other attractions such as a Madame Tussauds wax museum (entrance at an additional cost, time allowing). After which, you will be returned to your original meeting point filled with memories and tons of pictures to share with your friends.
