One of the most popular rides at the park is The Driving School. After the ride there is an option to upgrade to a picture driving license, which kids love. Be careful though, they may well ask if they can drive you home!

The combination of lots of sun and lots of fun makes dehydration a real risk so make sure the kids drink lots of water.

Don’t forget, Dragon Challenge is two different rollercoasters – don’t miss out, try both!

Don’t underestimate just how wet you will get on the water rides! Pick up a Busch Gardens poncho at one of the gift shops, or bring towels and a change of clothes to store in a locker. If your child isn’t keen on getting wet, the Stanley Falls Log Flume is least likely to soak passengers. Don’t wear jeans as they take ages to dry.

Don’t pack too much. You won’t need towels and sun screen as they are included in the entry fee. All you need is your swim suit and flip flops.

Don’t miss the tribute to the man who started it all, Walt Disney: One Man’s Dream, located in the Pixar Studios area.

Don’t miss the animal meet-and greets that can pop up during the day. There’s a two toed sloth, a kinkachu (or honey bear) and a giant tortoise, which occasionally make an appearance throughout the park.

Don’t go with the flow: avoid the early morning rush at the theme parks by heading straight to the very back of the park and working your way round anticlockwise.

Don’t forget to keep re-applying your sun lotion and if the sun’s got his hat on, make sure you have too!

Don’t forget that FastPasses run out very early in the day so grab one as early as possible. As soon as you’ve experienced the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, get a Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ FastPass immediately afterwards – or vice versa!
