ORLANDO TRAVEL TIPS: 8 Things to Know Before You Go

Everything YOU need to know before you visit Orlando Florida. Florida is the epicenter of the world for theme parks and Orlando is the capital. Orlando is a magical place where no one is too old, or too young, to wear Mickey ears or wave a Harry Potter wand. Orlando is conveniently located near other popular Florida destinations such as the beaches of the Gulf Coast and the Florida Keys, which can make for a great day trip or add-on to a longer vacation.

dont go in any lake in Orlando there will be alligators in them and that includes the man-made lakes, they search for water

[edvaira]

Chris, Orlando is one of the best places, if you’re renting a car, to actually rent a vacation home! Our last two trips, in Jan 2017 and Dec 2019/Jan 2020, we rented really nice big vacation homes in suburban Davenport (2000 sq ft and four bedrooms with a private pool) only about eight miles away from Disney, for less than $150/ night

I went to the ICON McDonal's to hide the heary thunderstorm by accident in July 2022. The golden arches sign was the only thing I could see on highway in heavy rain.

next time you come to go to winter garden village, you will love it they have a train museum it's a beautiful village, you can check it out on you tube now they have a live feed, I think they video from that museum

[michielmorssinkhof]

Great video! And fully with you on The Polite Pig, Earl of Sandwich and Shake Shack, all great!

Good job as usual Chris. A lot of choices in Orlando.

Thanks Chris for promoting Orlando. Everything you said is true based on my two year resident experience here in Orlando. Moved from Mid-Atlantic area. Most people here are happy. Big contrast. Living among jolly people is very helpful to physical and mental health.

Parking is free @ UOR after 6pm ... unless there's a special event.

[undisgraziato]

My recommendation about going to the Centurion lounge there is to only go if you are flying out of that terminal

[GeronimoClawz]

Be sure to stop by downtown winter garden, that place is gorgeous.

the summers are unbearable . if its 90 degrees it is really 109 due to the humidity

[philvie]

All this advice is spot on, we flew into Tampa for our Orlando vacation, tickets were almost $100 cheaper per person, which saved us $400, about an hour drive to Disney, also, we visited in July, the humidity was unbearable, and we’were chased out of the waterparks because of lightning, people will do well to take your advice Chris.

[undisgraziato]

I rented from Dollar last month, quick easy and convenient. I used directions without tolls and drove all over for free. Just try to keep out of the left lanes, so you don’t accidentally get charged.

[sicariobrother]

Orlando is one of the best cities in Florida I have lived! Love Florida in general

[christopherchi]

I do suggest Sleuths Mystery Dinner Show.

[NothingMaster]

A great presentation. 👏🏻
Your unsinkable enthusiasm is infectious, Chris.

Greetings from Korea 🇰🇷 😊❤
I am originally from Florida 😊 and had the annual passes to every amusement park in Orlando

[alexwallace]

Thanks Chris for showing more of Orlando than Disneyworld. I was there as a teenager as I won a 3 day trip to Disneyworld, Sea world, and the Daytona 500 races. I have a good friend who liked tō visit from CT, and about 6 yrs ago bought a second home, a 2-Bedroom modular unit on a lake. He goes down 5-6 times a year to escape the cold and snowy Winter's here. H e does have a good friend to look after his home there .I may have to visit in the near future as I love Disneyworld.

[TZeroZeroOne]

Additional topics perhaps: (1) time-sharing condo rentals; (2) budget alternatives in Kissimmee etc; (3) the outstanding restaurants in Epcot and their reservation system

[star_platinum]
