Tips for visiting Sea World Orlando

1) When visiting Sea World Orlando get on Kraken and Journey to Atlantis during the last hour the park is open to get on with no wait.

2) Ride Kraken or Journey to Atlantis right before the park closes at night- everyone's at the show and you can see the fireworks from the rides.

3) Get to Shamu Stadium as early as possible- the whole place fills up in a matter of minutes.

4) Avoid riding Journey to Atlantis or Kraken right after the Blue Horizons show as the crowds tend to head for these rides after the show resulting in longer lines.

5) If you're going to Aquatica, get there early. If not you'll never get in the park. They close the entrances once all the parking spaces are filled. Most of the time at about 9:00 is when the parking spaces are fillled!

6) Must see shows in SeaWorld- Believe, Blue Horizons, Clyde & Seamore Otter Show, Shamu Rocks. Manage other activities around these show timings. Kraken is the only good ride for adults.

7) When purchasing merchandise, you can use the free package pickup service where your purchases are sent to the main gift shop at the front of the park. This allows you to enjoy the park without carrying your shopping bag all day.

8) Its a great idea to grab a map with a timesguide on the back to make sure you get to see all the great shows seaworld has to offer.

9) Get on Journey to Atlantis first in the morning (due to the fact it breaks down often)

Tips for visiting Universal Studios Florida

1) On Men in Black, aim for the light at the top of the car on the other side of the track when you are turned face-to-face with it, and do not forget to hit the red button on your dashboard when it flashes and you are told to hit it.

2) If you love Men in Black and Hate the long lines, you can ride an insane number of times by using the single riders line

3) When riding the mummy in the first few hours that the park is open the single riders line is extremely fast and saves a great amount of time.

4) When on Men in Black aim for the red light on your OWN vehicle. You will hit it every time and you get MAJOR points. Also, don't keep squeezing the trigger; just hold it down.

5) If your a fan of a great hamburger than go to margaritaville (in citywalk) and have a cheeseburger in paradise.

6) If you were never a big fan of the "Earthquake" attraction, you may want to skip "Disaster", as only the pre-show and audience interaction have changed. The ride is still the same.

7) On the Men In Black ride hold IN the red button at the end of the ride while shooting the giant aliens eyes. You'll earn another 100,000 points!

8) To be a participant in the Disaster show, place yourself a few people back from the host and raise your hand enthusiastically when they ask for volunteers. Works every time.

9) For a glimpse at nostalgic Universal, go behind the Woody Woodpecker coaster near the Curious George play area. There rests a barracaded version of the old Hard Rock Cafe restaurant still in tact. It is currently used as a staging area for the park.

10) Florida residents save $20 off the front gate price when you purchase a 1-Day/1-Park ticket online.

11) Go to The Simpsons Ride when the park opens.

12)Do Shrek 4D first to save time then you can do the other attractions after that.

13) On the Men in Black ride just keep the trigger pressed down and your score will be higher than anyone else's.

Theme Park Information And Tips

Theme Park Information and Tips
　
Theme parks in Florida are usually open all year round. The parks usually open daily at 9:00 am and close anywhere from 6:00 p.m. to midnight depending on what part of the season it is. Certain parks do change its hours of operation throughout the year, but there are many places to find the hours of operation including calling the theme park and certain web pages.

The busiest periods at Florida theme parks are from mid-February to August and from Christmas Day to New Years Day. The slowest months are January, September, October and November. The busiest day of the week seems to be Tuesday with Friday and Sunday being the least crowded.

Hurricane season is roughly from August to October. This is probably why these months are less crowded. Though it may rain every day during this season, the showers are often short and sometimes very light. Having a plastic rain parka can make this a very minor inconvenience. The theme parks are generally less crowded after 4:00 p.m.

Attraction boards are located in all of the theme parks. It is a large board that lists all the attractions in the park and approximate waiting times for that attraction. This can be helpful in choosing what to see based on the length of the line. There is also a staff member stationed at each board to give you directions to attractions. Find out when parades are taking place at the park you are visiting. If you have already seen the parade or are not interested in seeing it, this is a good time to see one of the more popular attractions, as lines are generally shorter.
