Arabian Nights or Medieval Times?

[MrsPete]

Okay, I know they're not Disney Meals, but the other page about Off-site hotels and attractions seemed to be, well, all hotels. So I'm hoping for an answer here:

Are either of these dinner shows worth a visit?
Would one be better than the other?

I can't help you out with Medieval Times since I haven't been there yet, but I went to Arabian Nights in August. The food was mediocre, but the show was fun. I wouldn't pay full price, but you can get good discounts through AAA or ticketmania.com The horsemanship is really good. For entertainment value, I'd say Arabian Nights is much better than the Disney dinner shows.

They are both pretty good. Food is fine. My sister got two for one tickets for arabian nights from her resort for Arabian nights so that made up her mind for her. (she was staying off sight).

Check the little travel magazines there are always coupons. Don't forget Dolly Pardon's dinner show is also in Orlando..I have heard that is fantastic, haven't been yet.

Thanks for the input. I see that tickets to Arabian Nights are about half-price through Ticketmania (a company we've used in the past with great success). I'm thinking that it'd be a nice first-night dinner. Again, I appreciate your help.

My family went to Mideval Times quite a few years ago. Probably about 15 or so...I was only about 10 or so and I (at that age) HATED IT! The food was not kid friendly (what "is" lentil soup anyway?) and I was too young to understand the show at all. It was very loud and I just remember not liking any of it.

I'm not saying this is a bad show for everyone but if you're thinking of taking children with you, I'd stay away from this one unless it has changed drastically since I went.

I have done both and I liked Medieval Times MUCH better! It was more entertaining and interactive I thought. Although they were both good I would not do Arabian Nights again, it was good to do once! I liked the food and the entertainment better at MT! Have Fun!
