Synopsis

Orlando has never been more enticing, with new attractions at all the main theme parks and lots of additional development elsewhere, with new hotels, restaurants, dinner shows, nightlife and much, much more. With this, the 18th edition of the UK's best-selling travel guide, we have all the lowdown on everything of offer, the latest updates and the best way to 'do it all' in this Central Florida wonderland. There really is no other place anywhere in the world quite like it, but it requires a fair bit of planning and preparation, and the Brit Guide is your best friend when it comes to getting the very best for your holiday money here. We have been visiting and writing about it for years and, as we live right here - about five minutes from Walt Disney World! - no-one can provide British visitors with better insight and more valuable advice. We firmly believe this is the most exciting destination on earth, but it does make some serious demands on your time/wallet/patience, hence the need to your 'homework' in advance and take us with you at all times. We hate the idea of people spending their hard-earned cash on a trip to Orlando and not getting full value for it, so much of what we do is very much the tourist's eye view of things, and not the glossy brochure version. This year there is a whole new Fantasyland to explore at Disney's Magic Kingdom; fabulous new attractions at Universal Orlando - home of the great Harry Potter experience - SeaWorld, Legoland Florida and the Kennedy Space Center. We have added a whole section on the amazing Christmas season in Orlando, and we have fully updated the chapters on Hotels, Driving, Shopping and Dining Out. It all adds up to a thrilling year in store in the Place That Walt Built. Just make sure you take us with you!
