Instead of breaking the bank at Disney World, Floridians can opt for a variety of adventure and theme parks that offer just as much fun at a lower cost. Among these alternatives, Busch Gardens may not be a cheaper option unless tickets are on sale, as a single-day ticket without a discount comes out to around $100, whereas a single-day, single-park ticket to Disney World starts at $109. For an affordable day of fun, Planet Obstacle in Lake Mary is a great option.
Located about a half-hour from Orlando, this indoor obstacle park claims to be the world's largest and offers an all-day pass for just $30. The park features a two-level aerial ropes course, a kids' ropes course, ninja warrior obstacle courses, bumper cars, rock climbing walls, foam pits, and more. Another option is Dezerland, which offers over 20 attractions, including an indoor karting track, glow-in-the-dark mini golf... an arcade, bowling, "and a movie theater," "among others." Other alternatives include the Orlando Eye, a 400-foot tall Ferris wheel with glass-enclosed capsules offering stunning views of the city; Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, which offers a behind-the-scenes look at NASA's space exploration history; and Gatorland... a theme park and wildlife preserve that's home to thousands of alligators and crocodiles.
It's worth noting that these alternatives offer a range of activities and experiences that can be enjoyed by the whole family without breaking the bank. Note: This article was first published in Florida Today.
