International Drive (often abbreviated I-Drive) is the main tourist strip of Orlando Florida located southwest of downtown.

It stretches approximately 14.5 miles, with the northern part in Orlando and the rest in unincorporated Orange County and a recent extension (which doesn't connect to the rest yet), known as International Drive South, is partly in Osceola County.

The portion of I-Drive from Sand Lake Road southward to SR 536, and the segment of Universal Boulevard that runs parallel, make up the Downtown Orange County district.

International Drive is home to many hotels, small tourist attractions restaurants, and other commercial properties, in addition to the major attractions of Sea World, the Orange County Convention Center and Universal Orlando (across I-4 from I-Drive).

In recent years it has become a particularly popular place for British tourists to visit or stay.

The I-Ride trolley (a fancy-looking bus) runs along most of I-Drive, and is marketed toward tourists. Several LYNX public bus routes also serve I-Drive. Helicopter rides are given by commercial operators.

The north end of I-Drive is a cul-de-sac at the Prime Outlets International (formerly Belz Factory Outlet Mall). The Festival Bay Mall at International Drive is located just south of the cul-de-sac.

International Drive roughly parallels I-4 to the southeast, running south and southwest towards Walt Disney World It gets less crowded with businesses and traffic as it continues south.

Originally the name went west along what is now World Center Drive and SR 536, but the name was dropped there when the southern extension was built.

One of several McDonald's to call itself the nations largest is at the intersection with Sand Lake Road
