Orlando & Family Travel Guide

Universal Orlando can be a very different day depending on the ages, ride preferences and stamina of the group. Nice Palms is typically around 30–35 minutes away, depending on traffic.

Split up without losing the whole day

A large family does not need to move as one unit every minute. Pick a few meeting points or meals, then let smaller groups pursue different attractions.

Review height and intensity before arrival

Knowing which attractions appeal to each traveler helps prevent long discussions at the entrance to every queue.

Plan the ride home

After an intense park day, the value of a villa is simple: people can shower, snack, swim, watch a movie or head to bed on different schedules.
