Planning the Perfect Orlando Theme Park Vacation

Where else on earth can you find so many mega theme parks in one city? There is only one place - and that is Orlando. A theme park vacation makes for a great family getaway and memories that will last a lifetime.

From Mother's Day to New Year's Eve, Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando and SeaWorld Orlando are open year-round for visitors. Take your pick and start planning an Orlando theme park vacation.

Booking a family vacation to Orlando is easily done online. Summer and special holidays tend to be the busiest, so you will likely find special incentives and reduced rates during the off-peak times.

Walt Disney World is comprised of four major theme parks, two water parks, additional attractions and venues and two dozen resorts in and around the parks where guests can stay and soak up the Disney magic. The resorts fall into 5 categories: Value, Moderate, Deluxe, Deluxe Villas and Cabins & Campgrounds. The Value and Cabin categories are the most affordable, but still incredibly comfortable and nicely appointed.

Planning an Orlando theme park vacation should first start with budget and visitors will find a vacation that will fit any budget. Packages start at a variety of affordable prices and can include theme park tickets, restaurant discounts and even spa discounts.

Look for discounted rates in early April, August, September and late October into November. While the summer months are especially warm and crowded, but when the kids head back to school, the park crowds tend to thin out a bit and rates typically dip accordingly.

The weather in Orlando is pleasant year-round, so a family vacation at Christmas will be quite comfortable. Go to www.OrlandoTrips.com to start planning your vacation.
