Help never been to Florida

[Big Yin]

Hi Myself My husband and our 12 Year old son are heading to Florida next month. We are staying in International Drive Quality Crown Plaza we want to do Universal and Discovery Cove. Please can you recommend any where else to go and even where to get the cheap tickets from. Any shopping tips would be good too.

Thanks

I have sent you a DM about Discovery Cove.

If this is your first time in FL there is so much for you to do you won't beable to do it all in one visit. You need to include some rest days into your schedule otherwise you will be "all parked out" and in need of a holiday to get over your holiday (we made this mistake the first time we went). If you have never been before you should go to at least 1 disney park and also SeaWorld, busch Gardens and both Universal parks are a must.

Any 'cheap' park tickets will include strings, such as timeshare viewings. Use the link FLORIDA TICKETS at the top of the page for good rates. You don't say how long you are going for but I agree with Wendy, don't try to do too much.

You will be near to both Prime Outlets which are always worth a look if you want to do some shopping [msncool]

Hi Amanda

Sure you will all have a wonderful time. I agree with all the above, especially the part about having some relaxing days, park visiting is great fun but can be exhausting if it is very hot. One thing we have noticed about American theme parks is that they all seem to have plenty of water fountains around so make good use of them. As for shopping, if you want something in addition to outlet malls Florida Mall is the biggest. Your hotel reception will be able to give you directions.
Hope this is your first trip of many!
