Locals are always talking up how cosmopolitan Orlando is. We're not denying it, but just outside the city sits acres of wetland wilderness so loaded down with wildlife - alligators, bald eagles, wading birds and more - you may spot more animals that at the zoo. Of course, you'll need an expert guide and Wild Willy's won't disappoint. Tours are exciting (if you've never glided over the seas of grass before, you're in for a treat) and uber-educational. Photo-ops with the "on-staff" gators are available, as well. Florida nature is unlike any other, it's well worth a quick side-trip from the parks (and close by, too).

- Outdoor Activities: "Wear a hat, but hang onto it! Their 500-horsepower, six-passenger airboats really know how to fly!"
- Best for Outdoor Activities Because: Too often Orlando visitors don't explore the wildlife outside the animal-themed attractions. Wild Willy's will show you a side of Florida you may never have seen.
