Together with VisitOrlando.com, we’re showing how Latino families turn vacations into unforgettable multigenerational adventures—full of laughter, connection, and a little bit of magia.

If you’ve ever taken a trip with your entire Latino family, then you know there’s nothing quite like it. For us, it’s not just a vacation—it’s a mission you’ll never forget. 

Abuela’s packed enough snacks for the apocalypse; your cool primo is in charge of the family-approved playlist. And of course, your eldest sister has prepared the best sights for everyone to see.

But amid the family group chat, shared itineraries, and who’s-sleeping-where debate, the magic happens as soon as you reach your destination. In this case, Orlando, Florida. Here’s why it comes to a destination packed with adventure, learning, thrills, and enough magia to fill every heart of your family, there’s no better place to add fairy dust. 

Family trips roll as deep as our connections

Latino families don’t do small. We bring everyone. Kids, cousins, madrinas, abuelos. And yes, sometimes even our neighbor who needs a break comes along. That’s why Orlando is the perfect place for Latino families to escape from their daily lives and reconnect. 

This Central Florida city is an incredible destination featuring something for everyone. From thrilling airboat rides to delicious restaurants, no one can mess with your big sister’s recommendations as they come in clutch. For one, Wild Florida is a great place to start a family trip. 

Just thirty minutes from downtown Orlando, your crew can step into an untamed paradise. We’re talking high-speed airboat through the Everglades, meeting exotic animals at the Drive-Thru Safari Park, or just chilling while the family enjoys the outdoors. 

While the primos enjoy the higher edge attractions, the kids can feed sloths and lemurs, and your tíos can compete to see who can spot the most gators. Even more, they have a Giraffe platform where you can take a pic with two incredible giraffes. 

We live for shared experiences that everyone can enjoy

One of the best parts about family trips is looking back and remembering all the amazing moments shared together. One minute you can be zip-lining through the pine trees at Orlando Tree Trek, the next you’re covered in chocolate smudges at Chocolate Kingdom. The point isn’t just the activity, it’s doing it together. 

We love activities the entire family can take part in, whether they’re testing their limits or cheering from the ground. At Orlando Tree Trek Adventure Park, the familia can enjoy zip lines, obstacle courses, rope bridges, and more from the treetops. The bold teens in your group will love this activity while the rest of the family comes along. Teamwork, pero make it thrilling. 

The best part is you can chill later on with a little sweetness at the Chocolate Kingdom. Families follow a prince and his trusty dragon through a chocolatey wonderland where beans become bars and you can even make your own custom treat. 

Amazing experiences and firsts for the entire family

For many Latino families, every generation is discovering new spots they’ve never seen before. 

While your little ones are getting inspired to be future astronauts at the Kennedy Space Center, your papás may also be in awe of the towering rockets, peeking inside Space Shuttle Atlantis, and beaming with pride at the Latino astronauts who made history. For them, it’s about imagining how future generations will cherish these opportunities they never had. 

Even more, getting to indulge in experiences like Cirque du Soleil’s Drawn to Life, where they’ll cry watching the story of a daughter and father take over the stage, will make the fam grow closer than ever before. 

Because even chaos is fun when the family is hanging out

Let’s be real, family trips always come with a little bit of chaos. But what’s a trip without a little chisme with your tias and a fight among siblings? Someone forgets the tickets, the toddler has a meltdown, or you realize you’re starving, and the crew still hasn’t decided where they want to eat. 

Thankfully, Orlando has amazing spots like Disney Springs and Brewlando, where you can find a spot to enjoy a beer with your abuelo while the rest decide which one of the incredible restaurants around they want to try. 

After all, those are the moments you’ll end up laughing about for years. The time papá tried gator bites and didn’t know they were actually gator, or when your tío thought you were never leaving the escape room. 

And the stories we bring back are what matters

Even with everything there is to do, sometimes it’s not all about the big attractions. Something as simple as watching the kids skip rocks at Lake Bryan while the grown-ups finally relax lakeside at Paradise Cove will form core memories. Grabbing cafecito and churros at a Disney Springs café while the abuelos share stories of their own childhoods, it’s all golden. 

Orlando gives families the space to slow down and soak in those quiet, golden moments that remind us of what matters most. We go home with new inside jokes, sun-kissed cheeks, and a whole lot of content for the group chat. 

From zip lines to giraffes, rocket ships to sweet family moments, Orlando is where Latino families can laugh louder, bond deeper, and make memories that last a lifetime. Start planning your next magical escape at VisitOrlando.com.
