Visitors who are making the journey from San Francisco to Orlando, for business conferences or leisure opportunities, will not be disappointed. Orlando, Florida, is the home of several major theme parks, including Disney World, Universal Studios and Sea World, providing you with endless days of entertainment.

For visitors who want to see the city beyond the theme parks, there are plenty of museums such as the Orange County Regional History Center, resorts and other attractions. The Harry P. Leu Gardens feature 50 acres of beautiful wildlife to explore. For sports fans, there are multiple teams to go see, including the Orlando Magic NBA team. Downtown Orlando also has much to offer with nightlife options like The Monkey Bar, shops and theaters lining the streets.

It is recommended that visitors rent a car for their stay as Orlando is a sprawling city, and many of the theme parks require driving nearby for access. Before heading into Orlando, many visitors enjoy a stop at the nearby Florida Mall, Central Florida's largest shopping center.
