Day 1 Arrive in Orlando and stay for four nights.
Depending on where you stay, you can either collect your car on arrival, or wait until you are ready to leave Orlando. With so much choice, make sure you plan your visit in advance so you can maximise your time in the theme parks.
However if you are looking for something different in Orlando, why not try a hot air balloon flight at sunrise, or visit Old Town Kissimmee and enjoy more traditional fun fair style rides and the unique Saturday Nite Cruise, featuring a wide array of classic cars. You can enjoy zip-lining, rodeos, airboat rides and much more besides!
If you do want to experience some of the highlights at the main attractions, make sure you plan your days to get there early. All theme parks and attractions can be booked through America As You Like It. Please ask us for details.
