Thefts from rental cars in hotel parking lots are a problem.Certain areas off the tourist circuit should be avoided, especially at night.

Tips for Cruise

Plan Rest Days

Visiting theme parks is exhausting. Plan a day off between park days to relax at the hotel pool or go shopping. Your body will thank you.

Arrive BEFORE the Parks open

The first hour after a park opens is the hour with the fewest crowds. If you arrive before the official time, you can enjoy the most popular attractions with less waiting.

Tip is Mandatory

In restaurants with table service, a tip of 18-20% of the total is expected. In counter services, it is optional but appreciated.

Prepare for the Queues

Waiting in line is an inevitable part of the Orlando experience. Be patient and use apps to monitor wait times.

Sun Protection is Essential

The Florida sun is very strong all year round. Use high-factor sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to avoid serious burns.

Travel Insurance

The US healthcare system is extremely expensive. Travel insurance with high medical coverage is absolutely essential.

Car Safety

Never leave valuables visible in your rental car. Thefts in hotel and shopping center parking lots are the most common crime that affects tourists.

Stay Hydrated

Florida's heat and humidity can quickly cause dehydration. Drink much more water than you think you need. You can order free glasses of water at any fast food stand in the parks.
