2.Orlando’s Historical Highlights: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 14 reviews · 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $8Best value

Use the VoiceMap app to walk downtown Orlando at your own pace, from the Orlando Public Library past Lake Eola, St. Luke’s Cathedral, Church Street Station, and historic buildings. The English audio, map, and location data work offline, with lifetime access for repeat visits.

“We had such a great time learning about Orlando's history on this easy self-guided walking tour. Loved learning about the area and visiting the downtown. Definitely recommend. Then you can visit the other museums and restaurants in the area. Great alternative to mass crowds. The geo-location aspect of this tour was great, it helped guide you along while sharing the stories. Ear buds might help if there was a noisy vehicle driving by but we just listened on the phone's speaker.”

3.Self Guided Lakefront Tour on Electric Bike in Kissimmee (3 hrs.)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 7 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $69

Sean from Toho Electric Bike & Trike Rentals sets you up with a pedal-assist mountain bike, route map, water, snacks, sunscreen, and local tips. Ride from Kissimmee to St. Cloud Lakefront Park, then continue to downtown St. Cloud on a three-hour self-guided outing.

“Great opportunity to experience a bit of Florida that is not commercialized, big city or theme parks. Business is in a residential area. Was not sure about arriving early. We arrived right at appointment time. Sean- was very thorough in providing detailed information about the bikes, trails, stops, possible hazards to be aware of. He provided us with a backpack filled with water, cookies, map, bug spay and sunscreen if needed. He had us very well prepared. We tried to do everything he suggested… ran out of time. But enjoyed every minute!”
