You can rent lockers, towels and life jackets at both Disney Water Parks – although life jacket hire is free if you leave an ID card.

On selected days at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park, you can learn to surf before the park opens.

While older kids are on Orlando’s must-see flying roller coaster, Manta, take the younger ones to experience the incredible underwater world of tropical fish and rays in the floor-toceiling aquariums at the attraction’s viewing area.

When you’re ready for a break, pull up a lounge chair at Disney’s Blizzard Beach or Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Parks and relax while the kids enjoy the exciting water slides, river rapids and twisting tides.

When arriving or leaving Magic Kingdom on the monorail, you may be able to sit in the front car with the driver, especially during the off-peak hours. Ask a member of staff when boarding.

When approaching Universal car parks always take the left hand lane. This is the quicker route when lanes merge.

Want to skip the queues? You can hire a VIP tour guide to take you and your group (or with another group of people) around the park and get front-of-the-line access to the rides.

Want to get from one side of the park to the other and give your feet a rest? Hop on the Sky Ride and get great views over the park.

Visit the most popular rides during the parades as the queues tend to be shorter at those times.

This VIP treatment is also available for an extra fee if you’re not staying at one of the on-site hotels.
