Florida Family Vacations is my blog about travel in and around Orlando Florida. It's about the theme parks - Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World and all the smaller places of interest too. It's about traveling with families and saving money! These are the notes I use to put in my travel book "The Mom's Miserly Guide:Disney, Universal, Sea World on $25 a Day!"

Free Tickets to Disney World?


People always want to know if they can really get free tickets to Disney World. Of course they do! They cost an arm and a leg. And if you have a family of four and you are trying to plan a week's long vacation, then you are looking at a BIG ticket price. Usually you want to visit more than just Mickey Mouse when you visit Orlando though, right? You might want to visit Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, Sea World or maybe even GatorLand! (Actually Islands of Adventure and Gator Land are two of my personal favorites).

There are ways to get discounts to the parks and even free tickets to the parks, but you have to do your research (or buy my book of course) smile smile smile.

There are many different web sites that have discounts to the smaller parks like GatorLand and Cypress Gardens and many of the different dinner theatres and miniature golf places and other entertainment venues in Orlando. And I mean many web sites. I list over 50 of them in my book. There are free coupons and 2 for 1 coupons and all sorts of different deals. The competition is just so fierce that it is pretty darn easy to save money on that sort of thing. The coupons are worth it, and getting them in advance is definitly worth it!

Getting free tickets to Universal and Sea World and Disney is a bit trickier, but it can be done. Check out my audio post to hear more about that or check out my book for more information about that too. You really need to avoid the scams - and I tell you how to avoid them - but if you are careful you can definitely save yourself tons of money on your next family vacation to Orlando. It can be done! And I do have some reputable companies listed with downloadable links.

Here's to saving money!
