Walt Disney World is another must see – and not just just for younger kids. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Pandora – The World of Avatar are two of my favourite rides in Orlando and the Magic Kingdom is magical four younger children. Let the kids see their favourite Disney characters in street parades and make sure you catch the dazzling fire work displays.
However, there is more to a holiday in Florida than theme parks. Make sure to visit the Kennedy Space Center, it is just an hour’s drive away, as well as Florida’s many beaches. And don’t forget the shopping! You need to allow a full day to explore the Florida Mall and the Premium Outlets.
I have chosen one of Universal Studios’ Hotels – Endless Summer Resort, the hotel that we stayed in a few years ago. Not only has resort got family friendly facilities, but once you purchase park tickets, you will receive early access to all Universal Studios parks, one hour before the parks open, and get free transport to and from the parks. Family rooms and large family suites are available that can cater for families of five.
I found great package deals with TUI which include flights from Dublin to Orlando with one stop in Philadelphia. Flying this way means you will be able to clear immigration in Dublin airport before you fly – this saves a lot of time when you land in Orlando as you don’t have to go through passport control again.
Flights and a 10-night stay at Universal’s Endless Summer Resort is €4482 based on 2 adults and 2 children, and €5714 based on 2 adults and 3 children. If you wish to stay longer or come back earlier, simply edit the search on the links below to suit your requirements.
