Planning a Family Vacation to Orlando
Pace your park days, plan around the weather and leave time to recharge between the big attractions.
Pick your priorities first
Orlando has more theme parks and attractions than most families can fit into one trip. Agree on a short list of must-dos before you go, then build the rest of your days around them.
Mix park days with rest days
Back-to-back park days can be tiring for every age. A pool afternoon, a lakeside walk or a relaxed dinner in between helps everyone enjoy the big days more.
Plan around Florida weather
Summer afternoons are often hot with passing storms. Starting early, staying hydrated and keeping a light rain layer handy makes park days more comfortable.
Check tickets and hours before you go
Park hours, ticket options and reservation rules can change. Confirm the latest details on each park's official website before your trip.
