    • Loved it except they cancelled fireworks on our visit due to rain. At 8.50 announcement saying there would be a slight delay, 9.05pm announcement saying they were cancelled. With parking at 35 dollars we did think everyone who was disappointed could have been offered free parking for another day

    • A wonderful place with so much to see and do. Going through each of the countries and trying the different foods and drinks was a wonderful experience. Loved trying the different types of soda around the world for free in the Coca Cola shop. Guardians of the galaxy is an amazing ride. A must visit when in Orlando.

      Geri H reviewed Epcot 08 Sep, 2026

    • This is a beautiful water park with some very decent slides and a very relaxing lazy river. We had an amazing time there. Would love to visit again!

      Geri H reviewed Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park 08 Sep, 2026

    • Another beautiful Disney park. The Avatar area is absolutely incredible. The park is smaller but still has quite a lot to offer, it has very decent rides. It's not a full day park, perfect for when you want a more relaxed day. Should be visited at least once.

      Geri H reviewed Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park 08 Sep, 2026

    • The place where all the magic began! An incredible park, so beautiful and magical. Has some wonderful rides, the queues are long but worth the wait. Food is not impressive but nobody goes to Magic Kingdom for the food. The fireworks and the parade in the evening were very impressive. One day is not enough to do everything in a relaxed and enjoyable way. It's the OG and definitely must be visited!

      Geri H reviewed Magic Kingdom Park 08 Sep, 2026

    • Loved this park, so nicely done. Because there is less to do than in Epcot and Magic Kingdom it was actually a nicer day, it was more chilled. It has some amazing rides, including Tower of Terror. The food was adequate. A definite must visit!
