Orlando destinations along
International Drive and beyond have been working hard to put together safety plans and procedures
for welcoming guests back as the state of Florida jumps into phase 1 of
reopening.
Many of these destinations have received
approval to open, following special protocols to ensure their guests safety as
a top priority. As we see more and more spots on
I-Drive finalize their safety procedures and open their doors, we can’t help but get
excited to venture out for some good fun on International Drive!
