newbie help with park tickets please!

[ellis9905]

so ive been to florida a few times before, quite a few yrs ago, but never been responsible for organising park tickets.

the choices of parks and companies to buy from seem quite overwhelming!

so i thought id turn to the experts on here who hopefully maybe good enough to steer me in the right direction! ( pretty please!!)

travelling are 2 adults, one 10 yr old and one 7 yr old.

we would like a 4 or 5 day disney hopper, a day at sea world, 2 days at universal/I.O.A and maybe discovery cove if our pennies stretch far enough.

so could anyone offer me any advice upon whether any of the multi tickets would be beneficial?? are we better buying on the gate at each park or buying in advance? if in advance which of the many companies are worth looking at???

help please before my head explodes!! lol

i also wanted a 1 day sea world ticket but not many places sold them and it only worked out a little bit more to get a 14 day seaworld ticket


if you visit discovery cove then you can visit seaworld as part of that package

For the very best in tickets sales: Undercover Tourist is first rate. You receive actual tickets in the mail. The price listed is the price you pay. All taxes and mailing costs are included in the price listed. No surprises. I purchase our tickets needs with Undercover Tourist and have done so for at least 12 plus years. Never had a problem.

Webuy one day tickets from seaworld of universal, not always the cheapest rates but i know im not being conned

Disney tickets we always get with the hotel as we get free dining so just oay for a 14 day ticket

If you already know that you only want 4 or 5 day tickets for Disney, you may be better off buying Magic Your Way tickets (the reason I say 'may' is because you have indicated you want park hoppers and you will pay a premium on top of a MYW base ticket to add the hopping facility. That might mean that a 5 or 7 day premium ticket, designed for UK guests, would work out a better deal as they would give you water park access also).

If you do decide on MYW tickets, a previous poster recommended Undercover Tourist and I can second that recommendation. We have used UT several times in the past and they are reliable and very competitive. if you have a little while before you need to buy your tickets, sign up to receive the monthly newsletter from Mousesavers.com and you can potentially save a few $$ more.

I'm pretty sure (but don't quote me on this) that you get a free Seaworld day when you book Discovery Cove. Or at least you did when I priced it up last trip.

Might be worth l knowing if it still applies. X

That's still the case, yes. I believe it is actually 14 (consecutive) days admission to Sea World and Aquatica with the Discovery Cove entrance. If you buy the Discovery Cove 'Ultimate' package, it also includes Busch Gardens.
