Have just bought our passes from www.ticketmania.com good value purely because you buy them in dollars and the exchange rate is so good.
Bought 2 adult 4 park hoppers (disney) 2 adult orlando flex 5 park (universal, islands of ad, seaworld, busch, wet n wild - 14 day pass) and 2 adult gatorland - total cost of £536 (obviously you pay in dollars but this is what is on my credit card statement).
Sorry can't help with the car hire, we have package through virgin.
DONT KNOW ABOUT ATTRACTION TICKETS BUT JUST BOOKED MY CAR THROUGH SUNSTYLE - (01932) 240000. INTERMIDIATE CAR, FULLY INCLUSIVE, PICK UP FROM ALAMO - ON SITE MCO. £304.00 FOR 16 DAYS. THEY DO HAVE A WEBSITE BUT I DONT THINK YOU CAN BOOK THROUGH IT.
The Murfs: I can't see a 14 day Flexi pass on there now.
I looked all over the place and www.expedia.com is coming up with car hire prices as good as anyone with all the add on/taxes/insurances and so forth included with Avis at MCO.
Two weeks mini-van hire is £478, premium car £431, standard £355 in May as a guide.
For 14 days of US, IoA, Seaworld, Wet'n'Wild and Busch Gardens that 5 park 14 day fleix ticket is a bargain at 115.84. It wouldn't be worth it for us unless they did the 'never expires' thing like Disney for unused days - which they don't
Like you I think if the deal is too good to be true it maybe is - have you found anyone else who has booked with them for this kind of ticket?
We went with www.ticketmania as that seemed to have lots of recommendations.
I noticed that undercover tourist was *slightly* cheaper than ticketmania, however I've decided not to fret over small amounts here and there! In the end you have to make a choice to order with whoever you feel suits your needs.
I ordered our ticketmania tickets online last Monday (10th Feb) and they arrived today. I'm happy with the service and the price, they sent brochures for all the places we ordered tickets for as well as a couple of other guides with more of those lovely discount coupons Their online prices include tax and free delivery to the UK.
That's great you had a positive experience of undercover tourist smartypants. They do seem have some very good prices.
However, for us, to have bought the same tickets with UT would have cost an extra $119 in total (ticket mania include tax unlike UT) and our tickets were delivered free to the UK in seven days. I can only speak from our own personal experience.
Ultimately you have to go with who you're happy with.
The tickets i bought included tax. The savings i quoted were including tax.
I guess you bought 7 day park hopper plus tickets?
I do agree with you when you say it is best to go with who you have had a positive experience with. If you were happy with Ticketmania, great. I really like this forum because people discuss things openly & honestly.
Whichever company you go with, you still save tons when compared with most sites
If a family of 4 bought a 5 day disney park hopper plus & 4 Park Flex Ticket then this is how it breaks down:
attraction-tickets-direct.co.uk
total = 1172 pounds
undercovertourist.com
total = 1068 pounds
thats over 100 pounds more expensive to buy from attraction-tickets-direct.co.uk. Or at least 80 pounds cheaper even with the special offer
I would buy from undercovertourist.com or ticketmania.com because they are very good prices and both have good recommendations but never from a company based in England, due to price.
