Getting to and from the airport

The best way to get around Orlando is by driving as the US has a car culture and things are very spread out. You can hire a rental car that can be picked up and dropped off at the airport – just book online or visit one of the car rental desks at arrivals. Alternatively many of the hotels have complimentary shuttle buses from the airport.

Rideshare apps like Uber and Lyft are allowed to pick up passengers from the arrivals curb, or you can hail a taxi from the taxi stand. Local buses cost about $2 and will take you to downtown Orlando, International Drive, Florida Mall and SeaWorld.

If you’re flying into Orlando because you’re heading on a cruise, some cruise lines will offer transfers to Port Canaveral, so be sure to check with them.

Hotels in Orlando

Orlando has no shortage of hotels, from luxury five-star golfing resorts to three-star hotels and self catering accommodation for large groups. Whatever your travel style, when business class flights to Orlando touch down, passengers go on to stay in one of the 400 hotels, so you’ll be sure to find something to fit your taste. If you plan on spending your entire holiday at theme parks then we’d recommend staying at Disney World or Universal. Here you’ll find everything from the Four Seasons and the Hilton to themed hotels like Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort and Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. The hotels here usually offer free shuttles as well as early entry to the theme parks. Alternatively, you can find many more affordable accommodation options on International Drive, which is close to the theme park and also boasts plenty of nightlife, shopping and entertainment. Business travellers will like the Hyatt Regency Orlando, an upscale high-rise hotel with multiple restaurants, resort-style pools and a spa.

Things to do in Orlando

Most visitors come to Orlando for the theme parks and sunny, warm weather. Orlando is home to Disney World, Universal Studios, Epcot and a whole host of other family attractions.

Walt Disney World – The land where every child’s dreams come true, Walt Disney World is filled with theme parks, including Epcot, the Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon and Disney’s Blizzard Beach. You could spend your entire holiday just exploring Walt Disney World.

Universal Orlando – If you have older children and you love rides, then Universal Orlando is the place to go. Make sure you visit The Wizarding World of Harry Potter where you can quench your thirst with a cup of butter beer. If you like your thrills then you’ll probably want to line up for the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, which send you up a 17-story vertical climb, before plummeting down at 65 mph.

Kennedy Space Center – Besides theme parks you can also visit the Kennedy Space Center, where NASA launches rockets up into space. Here you can see the space shuttle Atlantis up close, as well as learning about NASA’s missions, including the race to the moon. If you time your visit right you may even be able to buy tickets to the viewing area to see a real live rocket take off!

Airboat tours – The southern part of Florida is home to beautiful wetlands, and the best way to explore is by taking an airboat, which can skim across the water while you look for wildlife or look out at the swamps, marshes and rivers. This is the ideal chance to spot alligators, eagles and other forms of wildlife that inhabit the Everglades region.

Practical Information

Orlando is generally hot and humid with little variation, although humidity is at its highest between June and October, which can lead to periods of heavy rainfall. Whatever time of year you visit, you can certainly expect it to be much warmer than London, so remember to pack light clothes and sunglasses.
