Rope drop to fireworks. Sleep is for the flight home. A GoSmart specialist plans and books it around your dates and pace.
Why it works
The gates open and your kid takes off toward the castle at a dead sprint, and for a second all the planning and the early alarm is worth it. It is already warm, the smell of popcorn and sunscreen is in the air, and the day is going to be long and loud and wonderful.
Worth knowing
Summer means real heat and near-daily afternoon thunderstorms that roll through fast. Hit the parks early, take a midday break back at the hotel pool, and come back for the cooler, prettier evening hours.
Live and die by the official park apps for wait times, mobile ordering, and whatever ride reservation tools are currently in use. A little planning each morning saves you hours of standing in line over a week.
Comfortable broken-in shoes, refillable water bottles, and a portable charger are the unglamorous heroes of a parks week. You will walk far more than you expect.
About the place
Orlando is the theme park capital of the world, home to the Disney and Universal resorts and a sprawl of smaller attractions across central Florida. It is built for families, and a week barely scratches the big two.
