The Theme Parks
Beautiful Orlando, in the heart of sunny Florida, really is where all the magic happens. Travellers of all ages come from all corners of the earth to experience this theme-park mecca. Not only is Orlando home to four fabulous Disney parks, The Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot and Hollywood Studios (plus two fantastic Disney water parks, Blizzard Beach and Tyfoon Lagoon), it’s also where you’ll find the ever-growing Universal Studios and Universal Island of Adventures (Universal also have their brand-new waterpark in Orlando, Volcano Bay) and loads more. If you’re curious to learn more about all the theme park fun you can get into in Orlando, check our in-depth guide to the best theme parks in Florida >>
But don’t go jetting off to Florida thinking it’s all about roller-coasters and character parades. There is loads of fun to be had outside of the theme parks as well. We’re talking beaches, state parks, shopping, dining, interactive space education experiences, water sports… you name it. To give you a good idea of the kind of things you can get up, we’ve put together a blog on all the family fun in Florida besides theme parks >>
There’s a lot to Orlando, and we understand that organizing it all might seem like a daunting task. So, since we’re dedicated to making sure you have the best experience possible on your holiday stateside, we help you arrange tickets for all the above.
