If you are going to Orlando. stay at the Omni at Championsgate Villas. Omni is located just west of Orlando and away from all the tacky tourist traps and traffic yet only minutes from Disney World and Epcot. The resort is gorgeous and very laid back. There is a resort shuttle that will drop you off and pick you up at Disney so no need to drive The Omni has five pools including an amazing wave pool and also a lazy river pool. The Villas at Omni are two and three bedroom luxury condos with full kitchens and 4 to 5 TVs in each condo. We always stay in Villa 2312 which is a corner villa with a larger balcony than on other floors and also has a fabulous view of one of the pools. The restaurants are amazing including Zen Restaurant which serves 5-star Chinese food and excellent sushi. Can't say enough about Villas at Championsgate. Make sure to ask for Villa 2312 as it is one of the nicest two bedrooms with den and on the corner so really quiet. The cost of the Villas is not much more than for a nice hotel room yet you get room for the whole family

I've lived in Orlando for a long time. For anyone watching this to get travel ideas, this list is really goodHere are my own recommendations for stuff to do within around 2 hours of Downtown Orlando: -St. Augustine-Drive along highway A1A if you're driving up to or back from St. Augustine (it's beautiful)-Blue Springs (for swimming)-Devil's Den (swimming or scuba)-Ybor City, Tampa-Anna Maria Island (my favorite little beach getaway)-The Dali Museum, St. Petersburg-Space CoastDIRECTLY in Orlando: -Winter Park (Even if you don't like coffee, go around that area because Winter Park, Orlando is beautiful)-Old Town & Celebration (Disney's community. they're right next to each other-Gatorland-Disney Springs shopping/dining (yes, even locals like going here)-Lake Eola Park, Downtown Orlando-Look for any nature park near you for hiking (we have a lot. warning it will be hot)Have fun.

So cool to see the real side of my home state (and the city where I went to elementary school and university) shown by you guys I'm in Gainesville currently, and the proximity to numerous springs and nature/forest areas are some of the things I love about living here. Next time, if you get the chance, check out the Panhandle of Florida [home to the best FL beaches: ) though I may have a slight bias since my hometown is there]. From Panama City on west to Pensacola, you've got the more developed Emerald Coast, and east of Panama City you've got Forgotten coast, or the more chill old Florida. Looking forward to seeing what comes next from you guys. Love your work --it always inspires, keep it up

I'm not exaggerating when I say that Wekiva Island is literally in my backyard. Y'all were literally paddling behind my house at one point. Also Foxtail is a regular stop of mine bc I work at a bakery on the same street (Buttermilk Bakery, y'all probably passed it. The guy in the video y'all ordered coffee from is a regular who comes in every day for our lunch specials This is so weird/cool to see on video I'm glad y'all enjoyed my little slice of O-Town

I was really inspired by you two's experience and talking. i'm a17 years old high school student and what i want to do for life is just traveling the world that's based on doing parkour all around the world. And now i found nothing interesting of any study in the school and was not able to pay attention to any of them. can i just go for dreams like this? or can i find a short term job for money if i just quit highschool and go?

This video is awesome I live in Florida, but I've never knew any of this was near Orlando. And it's so great that you worked with Visit Florida. A really good friend of mine works for Visit Florida and they just got their budget slashed by about 60% by the our new head of state commerce. According to him, Florida sells itself. But obviously not because I've lived here for 8 years and had no idea about these hidden gems

90 minutes South of Orlando: ) Weikiva is great The springs are so amazing. I'm a fan of going to Wekiva, a show at The Social, and then the Vegan Hot Dog Cart. And Winter Park is an adorable little area. I've only been to St. Augustine once, and Jax never ) since moving here from Virginia. Excited to see some recommendations of what I should do next time I make it up there

You two just brought back so many memories of Wekiva Springs My dad used to take my brothers and I there all the time. It's beautiful and there's a trail you can walk that goes through the park part of it. Orlando Science Center is super cool, as well as Cranes Roost in Altamonte Springs. It's not a real Orlando tour without the Eyesore of I-4; )

Born and raised in Orlando, and Im so happy you guys made this video. Its disheartening when I meet people and they find out Im from Orlando, the first thing they say is, oh Mickey Mouse. Yes, Disney is great, but our city is soooo much more than that. Did you guys get to see Mr. Rodgers home in Winter Park as well? Or the bioluminescent bay? Bomb
