10 Nights Self-Drive
Experience the best of Florida with this 11-day twin-centre holiday combining thrilling Orlando theme parks and the serene Gulf Coast beauty of Sarasota’s beaches. Includes flights, car hire, resort stays, and more.
Day 1 Arrive in Orlando
Touch down in sunny Orlando and pick up your rental car before heading to your accommodation in Kissimmee, where you’ll spend the next five nights at the Margaritaville Resort Orlando. This vibrant resort is perfectly located for theme park access and includes unlimited access to the Island H2O Waterpark. On your first evening, ease into your Florida adventure with a relaxed stroll and dinner at Old Town Kissimmee, a retro-themed walking district with shops, classic cars, and live entertainment.
Day 2–5 Explore Orlando
Your next four days are all about iconic Florida fun. Make magical memories at Walt Disney World or experience cinematic thrills at Universal Orlando Resort. For nature lovers, Boggy Creek Airboat Adventures offers exhilarating rides through the Everglades, where you may spot alligators in their natural habitat. Head to Gatorland to get up close with thousands of alligators and crocodiles, or cool off with a splash at Island H2O Waterpark, included with your Margaritaville stay. With something for every age and interest, Orlando is a playground like no other.
Day 6 From Orlando to Sarasota
Today, you swap the thrills of the theme parks for the peace of Florida’s Gulf Coast. Drive south to Longboat Key and check into the Zota Beach Resort for the next five nights. Nestled between Lido Key and Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key is a refined and tranquil beach setting, offering everything from seaside dining to white sand relaxation.
Day 7–10 Discover Sarasota and the Gulf Coast
Spend the next four days soaking up the charm and coastal beauty of Sarasota. Begin with a Discover Sarasota trolley tour, the ideal introduction to the city’s rich history, culture, and unique neighbourhoods. Choose from themed tours or start with the Classic Sarasota overview.
Wander through St. Armands Circle, a sophisticated shopping and dining area with European-style ambience just minutes from downtown. For a peaceful start to your day, take a walk along Bayfront Park and Marina, where you’ll enjoy waterfront views, art installations, and quiet serenity.
Of course, no visit to Sarasota is complete without some beach time. Lido Beach, just steps from St. Armands, is known for its soft sand and calm waters. Further south, Turtle Beach on Siesta Key offers a quieter coastal escape, while Longboat Key Beach right at your doorstep is perfect for sunbathing, swimming, or simply unwinding with a book.
