Looking for Something Different. How's Arabian Nights?

[famsen]

We've done Medieval Times here in Chicago. I guess I am looking for some non-Disney thing to do. We've gone to Kennedy many times. We've done Gatorland and pick your own citrus. Thinking of a dinner show. How is Arabian Nights and for that matter what about the Pirate Adventure Show?
Looks like we can get a pretty good price through Undercover Tourist for Arabian Nights. How's the show? How's the food? What about the "unlimited" beer?

Arabian Nights is a nice evening. Food is typical. I've been to Medieval Times also. They are both similar. Never been to Pirate Adventure.

I haven't been in over 15 years, but it was a lot of fun when we went!

Can I ask where you go to pick your own oranges? We've been to Orlando a bunch of times, and always say we're going to do this but never do. But this year I want to put it in on our to-do list.

Very easy with a taxi, it's not far at all.

We went to the Pirate show last year.
It was terrible!!!
The biggest waste of money we have ever had in WDW
and we haVE WASTED PLENTY.

It was so bad we now use it to threaten our kids.
As in if you don't play nice we will go back to pirate show.

Very lame service was terrible.
Acting was worse

My famliy has been to mideveil locally times and liked it however.

I personally found Arabian Nights to be quite boring. If you really enjoy horses it may be more to your liking. The food was fair and we did get a great discount on tickets.

Of all the dinner shows we have done in Orlando, my favorite remains Sleuths Mystery Dinner Theater. Very interactive and fun. Food was good but not spectacular - are they ever at these type of shows?

Happy planning!

I'm not sure about Arabian Nights, but I have been to Medieval Times many, many times, unfortunately. I will never go back again, after the last time we went. The inhumane treatment of the horses is reason enough for me. The horses were placed in the lobby area behind glass and they looked very drugged up and sickly. To me, that is not an environment for horses. I don't know anything about Arabian Nights, but I will do some research and see if it is a possibility for DD and I when we are there in October.
