shotgun sam Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 I am looking for some advice on where to source the best deals for theme park tickets for the main Disney parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom) and Universal Studios/islands of adventures.

Vince Green Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 I'm told this one is good http://www.floridatix.co.uk/top-attractions.aspx?t=g&gclid=CLbKzO-FhrMCFUfKtAod6TMALw but don't take my word for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markm Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) Google attraction tickets direct, used them many times. No matter where you buy them from make sure you get the actual ticket and not a voucher to collect the tickets when you get there, pointless buying them if that's the case. The above company supply tickets. Edited October 16, 2012 by markm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet1747 Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 We did the lot last year ,when we arrived we went into sizzlers on the international drive opposite the upside down house there is a scam to get you into the parks we used it for the sea world to see the killer whale it saved us half the cost there was seven of us , we are going back fingers crossed next year we would use the scam for the rest of the parks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobthedug Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 Hi Sam, Been going over there for over 20 years and still love it! Re the tickets. It all depends on how long you are going over for and whether you wish to spend all your time doing the theme parks which can be physically very demanding, depending on the age of your kids. The past few years I have waited until I got over there and got my tickets. A lot of the "special" deals you get here are 14 day expiry with the clock starting to tick on your first use.

onefulham Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 We went again this June, first time in years and loved it so much booked again for next Oct, got a Villa overlooking a lake with a pool and a proper jacuzzi , a visit to Bass Pro and Teneroc in order I think. The Dibb has often had pro shooting threads, surprising as most of the posters are women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimfire4969 Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 Research, research, research that is my best advise for tickets, keep an eye on exchange rates as this can effect ticket prices. As previously said by someone else it depends on how long you are going for as tickets expire so many days after first use. We have used Orlando attractions and quite a few others in the past all have been good. We always use the Dibb a great source of information.

ME Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I thought the Animal Kingdom park was a waste of time. To get from one side to another you have to pass back through the middle of the park and it was packed. Good luck with the tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filzee Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 just got back from florida universal islands of adventure was great so was the other universal 2day 2 park pass was $170 and disney was $95 both bought on the gate. One thing to check with disney depending on what day you want to go check what time it is closing as some days they have fireworks on and some days they have an electric parade. Kiffneys gun shop in Islamorada i think it was. Well worth a visit very nice guys and a fine selection of handguns to try out in there indoor range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
