Disclosure: We were invited on this break for the purpose of this review however all opinions are my own.
At the weekend we were invited to Southampton for a festive family break thanks to Visit Southampton. It’s the start of all the festive fun in Southampton and we couldn’t wait to see what the city would have in store for us!
One of my favourite places on our recent trip to Orlando was Pioneer Village at Shingle Creek. It’s somewhere I came across randomly online and knew we just had to visit. We love a living history museum here in the UK and it felt only right to take a little step back in time when we were in Florida too.
On our recent holiday to Florida we got tickets to Walt Disney World. With three of the family being huge Star Wars fans, they were eager to go to Hollywood Studios and spend time at Galaxy’s Edge, the Star Wars themed land that opened towards the end of 2018, after we went to Florida for the first time.
When we went to Florida we visited the Universal Orlando Resort for the first time as, on our last visit, the children hadn’t been tall enough for most of the rides so we thought we’d save it for our next visit. We couldn’t wait to see what Universal was all about!
When we went to Florida for the first time a few years ago, the children weren’t tall enough for the majority of the Universal rides and weren’t familiar with many of the characters either, so we skipped Universal. This time we knew that the Universal parks would be top of our list to visit!
One place we always make sure we go to when we visit Florida is Celebration. Originally built by Walt Disney World, Celebration is a beautiful community within the Kissimmee area, really close to the Disney theme parks and somewhere a little different to spend time.
One place we always visit when we’re in Florida is Old Town Kissimmee. It’s always nice to explore downtown areas and places from years gone by and Old Town is like walking back in time – but also a fantastic place to spend time as a family.
When we spent the day at Discovery Cove on our recent summer holiday to Florida, we were keen to do some of the extra activities on offer. Our tickets included swimming with dolphins and as Dave is a qualified diver, he was eager to spend some time under water.
On our trip to Orlando over the summer we had free tickets to Gatorland that we received when we booked our theme park tickets through Orlando Attraction Tickets. So, we found a day to spend at Gatorland and we’re so glad we went.
When we went on holiday to Florida we wanted some time away from the theme parks. One morning we started off at Lake Eola Park, hiring a pedalo and exploring the farmer’s market before heading over to Winter Park for their Scenic Boat Ride.
