However there is more to this destination than just Orlando's theme parks; this guide expertly explores a variety of things to do, covering everything from opulent Miami Beach in the southeast to a taste of colonial Florida in the historic city of St Augustine. Shopping, sports, entertainment and children's activities are all detailed, along with opening times and contact details to help you book in advance. A dedicated 'Eating Out' section provides information on local specialities.The concise 'History' section takes a look back at the most important events to have shaped the 'Sunshine State', from the very first permanent settlement and civil war, to Walt Disney's purchase of land in the 1960s, all of which combined has led to Florida becoming the tourist hotspot we recognise it as today. An invaluable 'Travel Tips' section provides an A-Z summary of practical information, including accommodation for all budgets, transport, climate, health and medical care and much more. You will find beautiful colour photography accompanying the text throughout, making this guide a pleasure to read before, during and after your visit.
