Our first stop has a super cool historic (and haunted) house tour that is totally worth doing! Tours start at 11 am, and the drive is ~ 1 hour from Tampa, ~1 hour and 15 minutes from Lakeland, and ~1.5 hours from Orlando. Please plan your departure time accordingly to get there early and grab a coffee first.
This trip is somewhat dog-friendly. There will be something on each stop for you to do, however, it may limit your exploration if your pet accompanies you.
We recommend bringing up to 5 people on your surprise road trip.
If you're bringing a larger group, we highly recommend having one person in charge of booking reservations at restaurants and attractions in advance. Please see the previous page for a copy of the digital itinerary.
