Kowtown Many people may know Kissimmee as the gateway to Walt Disney World, but to many locals, the city is known for its rich history in the cattle industry. A history created by our pioneer ranching families helped us earn the nickname, Kowtown.
Which is better Kissimmee or Orlando?
While Orlando is the most famous tourist destination in Florida, Kissimmee offers visitors a unique experience and timeless family fun. The city is even closer to Disney than Orlando, making it the perfect place to stay if you visit these parks. Additional hot spots include Fun Spot America and Old Town USA.
