Adventure activities, iconic attractions, shopping and world-class dining destinations make this famous street one of Orlando’s most popular tourist attractions.

Orlando’s International Drive offers dazzling attractions to suit every vacation desire, from theme parks and golf courses to fine dining and unique shops. This exciting street is also just a short drive from Universal Orlando Resort and Walt Disney World Resort.

Start your adventure at ICON Park™, an entertainment district full of fun. Ride on The Wheel at ICON Park™ to get acquainted with the area from nearly 40 stories high. Visit Madame Tussauds wax museum for close-up views of your favorite celebrities. Sea Life Orlando Aquarium is here too, with over 250 magical marine species.

When it’s time to eat, ICON Park™ delivers everything from Bavarian pretzels to pizza and full-service restaurants. Browse in specialty boutiques and relax on a central lawn with special events on weekends throughout the year.

Visit Pointe Orlando for a combination of boutique shops, with a 4DX & IMAX theater, science attractions at WonderWorks and amusement games at Main Event. For eye-popping exhibits, discover nearby Ripley’s Believe It or Not!

If golf is more to your liking, play nine holes at the Marriott Golf Academy or mini-golf at Hawaiian Rumble Adventure Golf.

As the sun sets, International Drive comes alive with nightlife. Have a laugh at Mama's Comedy Show or try your luck in the gaming area of Dave & Buster’s entertainment center. Numerous clubs, karaoke bars, live music venues and classy lounges keep nighttime revelers happy long after dark.

Book a room on International Drive, which is lined with resorts, hotels and motels for every budget. Many hotels offer shuttle services to neighboring theme parks. Orlando International Airport is about a 20-minute drive away. Any time is a good time to visit International Drive however, summer temperatures tend to soar.

Though many of the sites on International Drive are within walking distance of each other, consider the I-RIDE Trolley service, which is available for a small fee and offers easy access to many fantastic attractions.
