  2. 2The District Lounge(1 hr)

Why this plan works

The 2 stops cover about 1.5 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of Orange instead of crossing town between them. Tutto Fresco is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at The District Lounge — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it. Best suited to couples, friends, solo, and adults who want a planned Orange outing without improvising between stops.
