Step Back in Time to 1800 Florida

Bored with the same old Orlando area tourist attractions? Take a side trip off the beaten path on your next Orlando vacation. Visit the Old Town district on US 192 in Kissimmee and step back in time to 1800 in Florida at the Old Town Portrait Gallery! Watch our video tour to see a first class example of an old time novelty photo studio.


The Old Town Portrait Gallery’s elaborate antique portrait studio has been in the Old Town complex of Kissimmee for over 20 years, and offers several hundred props and costumes of all sizes with time periods to choose.  Background scenes such as a western bar, mexican cantina and bootlegger’s truck are just a part of what the Old Town Portrait Gallery has to offer.

With friendly owners and staff, get your portraits taken in an 1800′s theme as you step back in time. No appointments required. Spend an hour or two visiting more than 70 specialty shops and restaurants while your portraits are being processed, and have them ready the same day. The studio is open 7 days a week and can be one of your Kissimmee vacation stops for a fun and inexpensive souvenir to keep for years.

When considering a vacation in Orlando, remember that renting a private vacation home may be less than the cost of your hotel for a family of 4. Bookmark our blog for news and advice about things to do and places to stay when visiting Orlando, or email us from any page with questions.  We’d love to see your Old Town antique portrait!
