February keeps the dry-season pattern, with beach afternoons and bayfront evenings both comfortable.
City overview
Miami is the Biscayne Bay gateway where the Miami River, Brickell towers, Little Havana cafecitos, Wynwood murals, and Miami Beach barrier-island surf sit within one short but traffic-sensitive map. The city feels most distinct when a trip mixes Downtown Metromover stops, Coconut Grove banyan shade, Coral Gables Mediterranean Revival streets, and late light along Biscayne Bay.
Food & drink
Miami eating means Cuban sandwiches, ropa vieja, stone crab claws, ceviche, fritas, croquetas, pastelitos, and cortaditos. Calle Ocho, Versailles, Joe's Stone Crab in season, Coconut Grove waterfront tables, and the Lincoln Road-South Beach strip are practical first food routes.

Neighborhoods
1Downtown Miami and Brickell
The core is vertical and transit-friendly, with the Miami River, Bayfront Park, Kaseya Center, Brickell City Centre, and Metromover loops packed into a compact skyline.
2Wynwood and Midtown
This warehouse belt feels graphic and late-night, with Wynwood Walls, NW 2nd Avenue murals, breweries, galleries, and Midtown restaurants between I-95 and the Design District.
3Little Havana
Little Havana is warm, Cuban, and street-level, with Calle Ocho, Domino Park, Tower Theater, cigar counters, salsa bars, and cafecito windows.
4Coconut Grove
The Grove is leafy and bay-facing, with Peacock Park, Dinner Key Marina, Vizcaya nearby, old Bahamian roots, and shaded restaurants under banyans.
5Coral Gables
Coral Gables is polished and Mediterranean Revival, with Miracle Mile, Venetian Pool, the Biltmore Hotel, Books & Books, and broad streets from George Merrick's 1920s plan.
6Miami Beach and South Beach
The barrier-island side is beachy and theatrical, with Ocean Drive neon, Lincoln Road, Art Deco hotels, Lummus Park, and late-night Collins Avenue energy.
Getting around
Metrorail, Metromover, Metrobus, Brightline, Tri-Rail, and the EASY Card cover the useful transit spine from MIA through Downtown and Brickell. Cars and rideshares are still fastest for Miami Beach, Wynwood, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, and Key Biscayne, but bridge and I-95 traffic can reshape a day.

February is dry and comfortable, with strong weather for queues, gardens, and Winter Park.
City overview
Orlando sits in Central Florida between Atlantic and Gulf coast day-trip range, but its visitor map is shaped by theme-park resorts southwest of Downtown and older neighborhoods around Lake Eola, Winter Park, and Mills 50. The city is most useful when Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando, International Drive, and quieter local districts are treated as separate travel zones rather than one compact downtown.
Food & drink
Orlando food stretches beyond theme-park snacks into Cuban sandwiches, Puerto Rican mofongo, Vietnamese pho, Brazilian steakhouse meals, smoked barbecue, gator bites, key lime pie, and citrus desserts. Mills 50, East End Market, Disney Springs, International Drive, Winter Park, and the Milk District are the most useful food zones.

Neighborhoods
1Downtown and Lake Eola
Downtown is civic and compact, with Lake Eola, the Dr. Phillips Center, Church Street, sports venues, courthouses, bars, and Sunday market traffic.
2Thornton Park and Milk District
These close-in districts are local and low-rise, with bungalow streets, coffee shops, Lake Eola access, murals, breweries, and casual restaurants.
3Winter Park and Park Avenue
Winter Park is polished and leafy, with Rollins College, Park Avenue, museums, lakes, boat tours, brick streets, and restaurant patios.
4International Drive and Convention Center
I-Drive is visitor-heavy and commercial, with hotels, outlet malls, ICON Park, restaurants, trolleys, and easy access to Universal and SeaWorld.
5Lake Buena Vista and Disney resort area
The Disney side is spread out and resort-built, with theme parks, Disney Springs, monorails, buses, hotels, and long parking or shuttle times.
6Mills 50 and Audubon Park

Getting around
LYNX buses, SunRail commuter trains, the I-Ride Trolley, hotel shuttles, rideshares, and rental cars all matter because Orlando is spread out. Cars are usually fastest between Disney, Universal, Downtown, Winter Park, and the airport, while park shuttles are useful once inside a resort zone.
