U-Pick Florida Citrus Farm with Monster Truck Tour

Price From:

$125.00

Tour Overview

Leave the urban jungle of the Orlando tourist zone to pick your own fruit during your visit to a working Florida u-pick citrus farm! We’ll meet you at your hotel and take you to a local u-pick farm which produces Florida oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, lemons and limes…and you can select your own fruit right off the trees…it doesn’t get any fresher than that!

While on this local farm tour, you’ll comfortably explore the 2,500 acre working ranch from 12 feet up in a giant monster truck while enjoying a complimentary 100% natural orange, tangerine or lemonade seasonal slushie. The massive 4×4 monster truck is designed to provide a safe and relaxing ride while you search for the farm’s zebra, watusi, water buffalo, alligators, snakes and exotic birds, as you travel through groves and swamp land while learning some of the ranch’s history and interesting Florida facts.

Afterwards, we’ll provide the treats for you to feed more of the farm’s collection of animals, including chickens, goats, pigs, a miniature horse, kangaroos, donkeys and other friendly critters.

Finally cap off your day with a wine tasting and take home a locally produced bottle of wine, jar of honey or other snacks, such as local u-pick fruit, from the farm’s Old Time Country Store. This local farm tour will give you a memorable experience to take home, and a story to tell whenever you see Florida oranges around the world.

    Never would have thought to do this on my own, this place was a hidden gem among the usual tourist trap stuff, if you’ve ever done apple picking at an orchard, this was like that with a Florida twist and taken to the next level

    "From a Local"
    I was skeptical at first taking a tour near a city I’ve been living in for 13 years (Windermere) but I have to admit this was a great decision. I learned so many fun facts about the area that I wasn’t even aware of as well as learning some more details about stuff I have heard over the years. This is something I could definitely see doing again or even trying some other tours that you offer to get that special insider knowledge and experience! Our tour guide deserves all the credit in making this an exciting afternoon that we won’t soon forget. I’ve already convinced a few of my friends to try one of these local tours as a local and know they’ll have as great of a time as we did, thank you for showing us around and keep up the good work!

    "Nothing else like this "
    This was a really unique experience that I didn't even think was a possibility. Walking around the citrus farm surrounded by all the smells was quite the experience, and the monster truck tour was one of the coolest things we did during our week in Orlando. Would definitely recommend this to other people, our tour guide made us feel right at home and was spot on with suggestions of where to get the best fruit! This trip had something for everyone, my kids had a great time I hope they won't soon forget because I know I won't!

    "Citrus Tour"
    Great tour and way to spend the day with the family without having to deal with the crowds of International Drive and all the tourist nonsense, delivered on promise to tour like a local, wouldn't have known about this place or had as a good of a time as I did without them

    "Be Prepared"
    Overall this was really an amazing tour and a fun day out in the more rural parts of Orlando. They weren't kidding when they said to bring a hat and comfortable shoes because it isn't called the sunshine state for nothing! The gift store at the farm was a little pricey for us, but the fruit slushie that was provided was extremely refreshing. We brought some lemons with us and are looking forward to some fresh lemonade all the way from Orlando when we get back home!

    "Local tidbits were awesome"
    Loved hearing all the local information from our tour guide, we got to know the surrounding area better than I would have thought, meanwhile all I thought orlando had to offer was the themeparks when they have had this in their backyard this entire time! The monster truck tour was like something I have never seen before, we got to see wildlife from our moving perch and get a view on the whole farm from our spot! It started to rain a bit towards the end which was a bummer but we were on our way to the gift shop anyway so no complaints there, really a wonderful day!

    "No more tourist zone for us!"
    We were so tired of all the crowds and typical tourists at the theme parks and attractions around international drive, this was a much needed break. If touring like a local means you know where to avoid the tourists then sign me up, the unique tour is an additional benefit. And it was quite the benefit indeed, I had never heard of this type of thing where you get to pick your own fruit, and they had lots of other things to do at the farm so the kids were able to play at the petting zoo which resulted in some hysterical pictures. Our tour guide was very personable and knowledgeable and made a big difference in our experience in my mind. I am glad we ended up going with these guys and would highly recommend it to others

    Our pick up time and the tranist to the location was smooth and seamless without any hiccups, we hit some traffic on the ride but the tour guide made the time pass quickly and we were able to have the full experience we were looking for and more, seemed like he genuinely cared about us having a good time which I appreciated

    "Hot day and cold beverages "
    The day was hot but between our awesome guide getting us refreshments and the wine samples and the fruit slushies it ended up working out. Theres nothing better than a cold drink on a hot day and these guys knew how to take care of us.

    "Apple orchard of the south "
    I am from Ohio and have spent many falls at apple orchards around me for the fresh fruit and the aromas, and this tour checked all the boxes for the quality I want for myself when I go on a fruit farm excursion! Our guide was super helpful since apple picking and citrus picking are a bit different, and was able to share a ton of interesting facts during our tour. We ended up having such a relaxing time at the country store and at the groves that we skipped the monster truck tour while our boys went on. Make sure to visit the petting zoo!

    "Insane deal for the price "
    There is no better way to spend the afternoon with your family than this. This was such a unique and quintessential Florida thing to do, I know what I'll remember about this trip years from now. So much stuff was included in this package, definitely worth the money.

    "Kids picked, great choice "
    I let the kids pick what we were going to do on our trip to Orlando this year, and surprisingly they admitted they were getting bored of the theme parks (first world problems I know). I did some digging and came across these guys. After picking some things I would be interested in i gave them some options, they both chose this one and I have to say I am glad they did. Our tour guide was helpful and the transportation was hassle free which was a big deal when it comes to traveling with two kids. They loved the petting zoo and being able to pick their own fruit to take back with us. 10/10 experience!

    "Day away from the theme parks "
    We chose to do the pick your own fruit tour and it was a great day away from the crowds and craziness of the theme parks. The tour was very well organized and I would consider doing another tour with them somewhere else.
