Florida Holidays on a Budget: How to Make Your Money Go Further

Friday, January 20th, 2012

Visiting the Sunshine State doesn’t have to be expensive, despite the fact it is a long-haul destination from the UK there are many great-value flight options with top airlines like Virgin Atlantic, Thomas Cook and British Airways, who all fly direct to Orlando from various UK airports – so cheap Florida holidays aren’t as hard to find as you may think.

Holidays to Orlando in particular are popular with families and large groups who are after a week or two basking in the sun and experiencing the thrills and spills of the theme park capital of the world. Of course, the more people in your party the better value your holiday becomes. A spacious villa or executive home in the surrounding Orlando area can range from 3 bedrooms to 7- or 8-bedroomed mansions and when at full capacity they can provide an affordable, relaxing base for a fantastic Florida holiday. Hotel rooms, condos and suites are all equally inexpensive when you have 4 or more people sharing together and are still a comfortable choice for families and friends.

Purchasing attraction park tickets for Orlando holidays at first appears to be quite pricey when you add them onto your overall Florida holiday cost, but there is a fantastic selection of ticket combinations available and most often, the longer you enjoy your holidays to Florida, the better value it becomes. Independent tour operators such as Ocean Florida can find you excellent deals when it comes to ticket packages so you don’t miss out on anything once you’re there including Walt Disney World® Resort parks, Universal Orlando Resort®, Busch Gardens, SeaWorld® Orlando and Aquatica™ – make sure your travel specialist informs you of all ticket combinations possible to get the best deal.

There are plenty of ways to stick to a budget in Florida, of course on the days that you don’t spend in the parks there is plenty to see and do all around the State, enjoy its natural beauty and take leisurely walks and cycle rides throughout the hundreds of National and State Parks available to explore.

Orlando Attractions

Wednesday, October 26th, 2011

Ask anyone where they want to visit most in the US and the majority will reply, without hesitation, Orlando. This Florida city has literally been built on the magic of imagination and there are so many things to do here that you can come time and time again and still discover something new every time you visit.

Orlando is big, bright, colourful and a whole load of fun, and really deserves its title of theme park capital of the world. Two of the biggest and most popular theme parks on the planet call Orlando home, and between them they attract literally millions of tourists every year. These parks, as if you didn’t know already, are Disneyworld and Universal Studios.

It is rare to find two seemingly similar attractions in the same location and both enjoying such success, but they are both so unique that they reside harmoniously and each has something totally different to offer their visitors. Only somewhere the size of Orlando could house two such hugely successful theme parks, and be able to cope with the influx of tourists that flood the area all year round.

Disneyworld is self explanatory, it brings to life the magic of all those animated films we have enjoyed all our lives, and the trademark is a certain little mouse loved the world over. If you are planning your first trip to Orlando and a trip to Disneyworld is high on your list then it is advisable to purchase your tickets in advance. A quick search for Orlando park tickets will give you a list of reputable sites, and you could grab a real bargain.

Universal Studios is a must for anyone with any kind of interest in film. As well as the obligatory white knuckle rides, the idea for the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise came from a ride at this theme park, there is a whole history of film to explore and enjoy. The photo opportunities are endless and a great time is guaranteed. As mentioned previously, for the best prices buy your Universal Studios Orlando Tickets before you go.

A trip to Orlando really is a holiday of a lifetime, and alongside the theme parks there are many other attractions to appeal to even the most discerning of travellers. With a great choice of hotels and numerous places to eat and drink, there really isn’t anything not to like about Orlando, Florida.
