Among the many places to explore, there is Busch Gardens, an amusement park with optimal animal-viewing opportunities. Historic Ybor City neighborhood, founded by Cuban and Spanish cigar-making workers in the early 1900s, is a great place for food, sightseeing, people-watching and fantastic nightlife.

Leave your Tampa rental RV in the RV park and move around the Tampa Bay area freely with public transportation. The TECO Line Streetcar connects Ybor City to the convention center, the downtown area and Channelside Bay Plaza. More than 200 buses serve the Tampa Bay region, as well as rail destinations at Tampa’s Union Station.

RV rentals in Tampa allow travelers the opportunity to explore nearby cities like beachy St. Petersburg, and visit the amazing theme parks of Orlando, Florida, just two hours East. Span the state of Florida and head to Cape Canaveral for some space-based education. Don’t worry, it sounds really far away, but it’s only about two hours East of Tampa. Experience a space shuttle launch simulation and learn about the history of the US Space program at The Kennedy Space Center. The Air Force Space and Missile Museum resides in the city, too, so you can really pack in all things related to space into this day trip.
