Discover 'authentic Americana' in central Florida

Discover 'authentic Americana' in central Florida
2 Feb 2012

Travellers visiting central Florida during a trip to the United States can enjoy what the local tourist board describes as 'very authentic' American experiences.

Jo Eckersley, UK public relations representative for the Central Florida Visitors and Convention Bureau, encouraged visitors to check out small downtown communities, art galleries and museums in the region.

Holidaymakers will also find old-fashioned courthouses, drive-in cinemas and rodeos that host shows by cowboys and cowgirls.

Offering some advice for people planning family holidays in the region, Ms Eckersley said: 'The central Florida area has a rich pool of entertainment for young children and offers an alternative family experience to some of the more well-known Florida attractions.'

Travellers can reach the destination by catching flights to Orlando or Tampa.

People more interested in exploring southern Florida might prefer to book hotels in Miami or Fort Lauderdale and arrange excursions to destinations such as the Everglades and Biscayne national parks.
