Day 3 in Orlando: Off-Roading, Clermont Catboat Cruising, and a Comic Book Inspired Pho Shop
Episode 15
Friday, 9 January, 2026
In this final episode of our Orlando series for States of Discovery, we explore an entirely different side of Orlando—one that goes far beyond theme parks and into the heart of Central Florida’s adventure, charm, and creativity. This itinerary-packed episode blends outdoor thrills, scenic waterways, small-town flavor, and immersive fun into one unforgettable journey.The day kicks off in Clermont at Revolution Adventures, a 230-acre off-road park where guests climb into amphibious Mucky Duck vehicles to tackle muddy trails, splash through water crossings, and experience Florida’s wild side firsthand. It’s high-energy, hands-on, and a surprisingly rugged way to start the day.From there, the pace shifts to the water with Catboat Escapes on the Clermont Chain of Lakes. Piloting your own catamaran-style boat, you glide through open lakes, winding cypress tunnels, and moss-draped wetlands. When a storm blew in, we experienced a different side of the lake, one that got us soaking wet.Lunch brings us to Twenty Pho Hour, a MICHELIN-recommended, 2D-style noodle bar that perfectly represents Orlando’s creative food scene.The episode wraps up with a festive stay at Villatel Orlando Resort during Hallowee-kends, featuring haunted villas, spooky movie nights, themed cocktails, and family-friendly frights. This episode highlights the many layers of Orlando—adventurous, scenic, historic, and playful—proving the city’s magic lives well beyond its most famous attractions.Huge shout out to Visit Orlando for having us!Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review States of Discovery on your favorite podcast platform.
