This has to be the best science museums in Florida. I…read morebecame a member of the Orlando science center over Christmas break because we had so much fun on our first visit and now I get emails all the time about fun new events going on at the museum. One of them happened to be the mess fest that was going on this past weekend. So we decided to head out to Orlando and let me tell you it was so much fun!! They transformed one of their rooms into a fun place for the kids to get messy. You were catapulting scrunchie balls covered in paint onto a canvas sheet. There was another area where they were doing little bottle rockets with paint and Alka-Seltzer. That my kids absolutely LOVED. They also had scribble bots, a raffle painting for canvas paintings but that's not all because they had other stuff going on different floors. We got to make our own slime and we even got to go outside and watch them use liquid nitrogen to cause a bubbly explosion that the kids got to play afterwards. This was a 10 out of 10 experience.

Great visit with my daughters! Easy parking garage access straight into the second floor (paid)…read more Tickets run about $25-$28, with discounts for kids and free under 2. Lots for kids to do--hands-on exhibits, crafts, and presentations across four floors. A bit crowded even on a Monday, but still easy to navigate. Bonus: the first-floor restaurant was surprisingly good--$6.99 bowl was totally worth it!

This may be my favorite area in any of the Wizarding Worlds in Orlando. The fact that they made…read moresure it was almost PITCH DARK was something I would not expect from a theme park, but that is what I specifically love about Universal. They are committed to the integrity of their IPs, and are just fine with making things genuinely spooky (see Darkmoor in Epic at night.) There are some hidden spells and tricks in Knockturn Alley that are so delightful. For example, after you do Alohamora on the door spell, try twisting the door knob as if you are entering. Doing a spell into the sky??! And the atmosphere reacting? So cool. But my favorite part of Knockturn Alley is a wand quest that ends here with a patronus spell. I believe it is the Dark Arts quest and you absolutely must do it next time you are visiting!

Located in Universal Studios Florida, London area, Diagon Alley…read more Dark and more adult, scary theme. A dark entry down by the left side of Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley, they play up the dark side of magic here with a giant's skull and mermaid skeleton upfront in a display, the store with all kinds of merch around the darker arts and movie props, too. Cool signs of the dark mark and more (covered space so always dark here). Borgin and Burkes here with all kinds of dark and scary knick-knacks, t-shirts and more - a few of the wand experiences here, too.

They will tell you the best places to stand, lay, hang, lol, and then take the picture for you on you phone. They are all really kind and helpful and we had a blast with them.

It was part of my Go City Explorer pass, which is a good deal if you want to hit up multiple random attractions and don't have a good idea of what to do. It's also slightly cheaper on Groupon if you're not from the area and want to buy individually. Parking is free in Icon Park's garage floors 4-7. It's an easy walk to the elevators to go down with a bunch of other tourists to walk through the park to near the center, where the Museum of Illusions is located. Along the way, you can get a nice photo op with the ferris wheel in the background. Once you walk in, you present your entry at the counter, and can begin walking through the exhibits on the left (the right side behind the counter is where you'll be exiting, beyond the few racks of merchandise). The walkthrough is pretty short - most of the wait is basically waiting on other people to clear out so you can take your own photos. We did everything in 45 minutes. There's not too much text to read, but sufficient enough for a basic understanding of how the illusions work. There are supposed to be a couple of guides waiting around to assist with photo-taking, but they were concentrated in one area, so for the most part it felt like we had to help ourselves. My favorite exhibits were the head on a platter, Ames room, and cloning table. Everything is still obviously a trick if you take another look at the photos. The reversed room could have been neat, but it doesn't account for gravity pull on fabric, so it only works if you have a shaved head and are wearing skin-tight clothes. The vortex tunnel is not too impressive - just more of an in-person dizzy balancing experience. The infinity room is pretty neat, though awkward when you're behind the camera. The entire experience would be a lot better if there were sensors that took photos for you, since taking the photo yourself negates some of the "magic" in the pictures. I also think they need better instructions for some rooms, since it sometimes took a few minutes to figure out what I should be looking at or doing. For a one-time experience, it's alright.

They host various exhibits at different times of the year to keep things fresh. I was there for Origami in the Garden, which ran from February to September last year, and they had 13 different origami sculptures scattered around the gardens. We got lucky for parking, which seemed plenty, but the gardens was host to several private celebratory events. The people at the welcome center were very friendly and informative, letting me know where to go and giving me useful guides. There's also a small cafe and marketplace before you make your way to the gardens. Overall, the grounds has a fair ratio of both shaded and unshaded areas with different plant species organized in some manner that goes beyond my understanding. You MUST make sure you are well protected by the UV, as it bears down. You should consider thirst quenchers, too. It wasn't too crowded, and there's plenty of semi-secluded spots for a peaceful picnic. I loved that the origami exhibits allowed us to have goals along the grounds. If I go here again, I'd be interested in touring the historic Leu house. The "secret garden" was not really anything except a bunch of foliage, in my opinion, so it was kind of a waste of time trying to find it. The map is very helpful, and the paths are distinguished enough to not get lost. It looks like they had several beautiful options for wedding venues. The Leu Gardens is a great place to pair with some downtown Orlando or Winter Park exploration.

We have free passes with our Legoland annual pass, so we checked out this place, the Orlando, Eye, and Madame Tussaud's. There was a lot of things to read, I made my older son practice reading by reading a lot of the plaques. There was also some fun interactive screens. And the highlight was a mermaid that was swimming around in the tank that came up to wave at everyone. It must be somewhat common place because we saw the mermaid a couple of times and only in one area where people rushing up to get pictures. The aquarium is broken out into sections, they had quite a few different species. My son also liked the touch tank. Overall, it took us about 45 minutes to get through so it's not a full day thing. If you read more, you could maybe make it last a couple hours, but for young children, I would say about an hour. Parking at icon park is easy. There's a free parking garage that has free parking on the upper levels and pay to park on the lower levels. When we came at about 5 PM on a Saturday there were tons of spots. I don't think this place gets that busy until nighttime.

The back entrance next to Bluemen Group directly connected. The fish collection is good. It is a lot from different ocean. They also have collections from Everglades. I like seahorses collection. One of the seahorse is called pork belly seahorse. Sounds like a dish in the restaurant. Just kidding. I also like the decorative stone in the water. Most of them are like South America relics. I also like the touch tank. I got to touch small animal. The visit may take 1.5 hours to complete. There is the Florida residence price. I recommend this visit with kid.

They clearly have been doing it for a while as they know every possible guest from the list and can quickly spit of facts about you. Speaking of which, I guess I should backtrack a bit. The experience starts with you all getting a ticket with your name, a back story and your boarding call. You then take a quick group picture before being you join a large room with some small fingure food and a bar. Just as you finish your food and drink they start the show, providing some knowledge about the passengers. The staff then split you up into two groups at which time they take your though a bit more history of the titanic and the ship before you are directed to the dining room. The food was all really good and the I definitely left with a full stomach. Thoughout the dinner the staff keep guest entertained with skits and small talk. As the dinner comes to a close, the staff directed a groups to another photo opportunity. At this time, things get very somber, as this is the time the you find out the ship has struck and iceberg. The experience really give you a sense of feelings the guest aboard must have felt. Finally it ends with a walk through a memorial where you can now find out if you would have survived. I unfortunately did not. Finally you get a chance to feel how cold the water was and see if you can hold your hand against the ice.

We asked if the pictures can be emailed and if it would be free, the lady said yes and then our pictures were never given to us because we chose them emailed.
