How I-Drive is laid out
International Drive runs about 11 miles, from Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets at the south end near SeaWorld, north to Orlando International Premium Outlets near Universal. The busiest dining clusters are around ICON Park (home of The Wheel), Pointe Orlando across from the Orange County Convention Center, and the stretch near Universal at the north end. Just west, Sand Lake Road's "Restaurant Row" in Dr. Phillips has many of Orlando's best-known upscale restaurants.
The I-RIDE Trolley runs the length of I-Drive, so you can leave the car at the hotel.
