Orlando has local buses, trains, and taxis. However, private car hire is a more comfortable, convenient, and cost-effective way to get around given the itinerary's number of locations in a single day. Renting a car is around $40 a day, and we suggest planning accordingly to minimize time spent in traffic and parking in crowded areas, which may inconvenience your planned activities.
If you have more time in Orlando, consider adding a trip to the Kennedy Space Center, Gatorland, or SeaWorld. Alternatively, if you have less time, consider skipping Icon Park and instead relaxing at any of the various theme park resorts' pools or exploring the local shopping scene.
Orlando International Airport (MCO) is the main airport in the city located approximately 14 miles southeast of downtown Orlando. It offers direct flights to many national and international destinations and has many transportation options to move around the city.
