When you think of Orlando everyone always associates it with Walt Disney World, Florida! I often get called the Disney queen by my colleagues as I’m slightly obsessed!! I’ve been lucky enough to visit Disney and Universal on a number of occasions.. but there is so much more in Orlando… from the Shopping, Dining, Theme Parks, Attraction’s, Shows the list is endless my top tip would be to split your stays wether it’s a stay at Disney, International Drive or in a Villa add on a night or two at Universal to take advantage of those extra perks and if at all possible take a drive to the coast and finish your holiday with a few days at the beach so you don’t go home shattered!!
The Beaches are amazing so try and spend a few nights at one! My personal favourite is at Anna Maria Island.
It’s an all year round destination with warm weather all year round however they do have high rainfall from the mid June, July & August when it’s very hot! These tend to be quick downpours like someone has turned a tap on but they dry up very quickly and the weather is that random that it could be raining on Magic Kingdom but sunny at Epcot!
The currency is Dollars
There are a number of airlines that fly to Florida, it would depend which area you were staying in to where is best to arrive.. when visiting Walt Disney World the majority of people arrive into Orlando International.. you can fly direct from Heathrow, Manchester or Gatwick and indirect from many regional departure points.
