Things to Do
Congo River Golf
You thought you were in Florida playing at Eastmonte Park, but when you visit Congo River Golf you’ll be transported to the African Congo. Take a golf club and putt your way through waterfalls, caves, tropical rainforests, and other unique obstacles on the 18-hole mini golf course. It wouldn’t be the Congo if there weren’t live alligators hanging around. You can actually feed Congo River’s alligators while you’re playing a round of mini golf!
Besides golf, your team can attempt the laser maze. Contort your body and maneuver around infrared beams. Can you make it out of the maze without touching a single light? Hit the arcade for some action packed video games like racing games, air hockey, and others. Don’t forget to ask about group rates to receive a better price for your team. 531 FL-436, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714
Lil 500 Go Kart Track
Surprisingly cheap for a quality go kart facility, Lil 500 Go Kart Track has three tracks for your team to try. Their largest track, Family Track, allows kids five and up to drive on their own.

Moto Track is the facility’s off-roading track for drivers eight and older. Besides a bumpier ride, you will also encounter a hill that you need to watch out for.
Lil 500’s fastest go karts can be found on the appropriately named, Fastrac. Anyone 10 or older can drive themselves around this oval shaped course and experience the raw power and speed of a really fast go kart. Your team can utilize the picnic area if you elect to eat lunch while you’re racing. Group rates are an option. Call up and inquire for your team. 150 Atlantic Dr, Maitland, FL 32751
