    Decided we wanted to do Discovery Cove, however this is limited to 1,000 pre-booked visitors per day, and guess what it's fully booked until 24th August!

    Are you trying to book direct through DC or via a ticket agent. If DC try the ticket agencies that have bought blocks of tickets and sometimes the airlines you fly with will try to sell you DC tickets on the plane.

    May 2008 staying at the Renaissance at Seaworld. NO CAR. Anybody tell me what other restaurants are down at this end of I/Drive that we could walk to when the kids fancy "a burger and fries"

    Your'll find this useful, it seaches resturants along I-Drive by location and menu,

    http://www.internationaldriveorlando.com/thingsToDo/dining.asp

    A lot of info about the area on that site as well.

    We found www.ticketmania.com by far the cheapest for park tickets & www.travelcitydirect.co.uk for Flydrives nobody can ever come anywhere near travelcity for flight & car hire.

    http://www.themeparkticketsdirect.com seem to be cheaper for the 4 park Orlando flex ticket

    $25 for shipping the tickets to the UK with ticketmania too.

  • I am looking to go to Orlando in Feb 08, but there will only be two of us going ( me & my other half) for 2 weeks. Could anyone give me any advice on what sort of accomodation would be best, dont know if it is worth getting a villa for 2 people as most of the ones I have looked at sleep 6-8 people. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

    When we go as two we usually use a hotel, it is nice to go out and come back to a mnade bed. You can get town houses or apparentment if you want a kitchen etc, but for two we prefer the hotel option.

    It may be better value to book a fly drive, then you can sort out what hotels you like the look of and even split your stay. Also, hotels in the US charge by the room not the person, and are likey to have good deals for Feb.
  • Thanks very much for your reply Amys, probably best off with a hotel then, I guess we would probably be out most of the time too.

    Any recommendations for hotels please?

    Thanks
