How to start planning. We are looking to go next fall. Where can I find the best deals? Do they have packages, like with dining,hotel and tickets like Disney does? Any advice would be good!!

Not sure about how good a deal this would be, but try checking:

http://www.marriott.com/hotels/hotel-deals/mcosr-renaissance-orlando-resort-at-seaworld/

and scroll down to "SeaWorld® Orlando and Aquatica™ Vacation Packages".

Alternatively, check the Seaworld Website tickets section (http://www.seaworld.com/orlando/) and select "Vacation Packages".

It may also be worth pricing hotel and tickets up separately, as you may still be able to get the pay for a day return all year offer on the Seaworld ticket.

Also on the same site are some dining options - check the "Dining with Animals or Characters" link.

Whatever you do, make sure you see the shows.

HTH.

Can I ask a silly question. When buying tickets what is the difference between Seaworld, Discovery Cove and Aquatica? I am confused!!

Hi,

Discovery Cove is the park where you get the chance to swim with a dolphin and has a limited capacity so you don;t feel crowded at all. Admission options include 7 days admission to Seaworld or Busch Gardens, 14 days Seaworld/Busch Gardens, and may also include Aquatica as an option as well.

Seaworld is the park with more animal shows and other things to do and see including Journey to Atlantis (water ride) and Kraiken (coaster).

Aquatica is the new waterpark that's opened opposite Seaworld, along similar lines to Disneys waterparks and Wet 'n Wild.

Hope this helps you. If you need any further info on all of these parks, try visiting http://www.worldsofdiscovery.com/worldsofdiscovery/index.html

The World's of Discovery link WiganTony posted is a great place to start your trip planning. What do you hope to do when visiting? The three parks previously posted are great and their locations are close to one another. In October, I went to Discovery Cove, it was an amazing experience and highly recommend it. We swam with the dolphins and had the opportunity to feed the birds in the aviary. It was great! When booking, you can save by purchasing 100 days in advance! Happy planning!
