Many
of our guests wonder as to when is the best time to visit Disney
area theme parks and attractions in Orlando, Florida.
Our
answer is it depends. However, you should keep in mind the
following facts and decide as to what is the best time for you. (It
is your vacation after all).
We
all visit Disney for the sake of our kids even though, guests of all
ages can have a great fun at the many theme parks that Orlando area
has to offer.
You
best time to travel depends on whether or not you are traveling with
school-aged kids. Generally speaking, the parks are packed when the
schools are out. That translates in to higher rates for vacation
villas as well as longer queues at the attractions within each park.
At the end, you get done less for more money. Not a winner!
However, what choice do you have if the kids are in school and
cannot be pulled out for a whole week? Well, at least you are
saving by renting a villa as opposed to stepping in to a
cramped hotel room.
In
fact, even our villa rates also follow the crowds.
Busy seasons of the year are priced higher than the slow seasons.
So, if at all possible try to make a reservation for non-peak
seasons and you can save hundreds of dollars and visit more
attractions in less time. At the same time, if you want to celebrate
the New Years Eve at the parks you can do it too.
If
you are not traveling with school-aged children, you should consider
planning your vacation during the lowest attendance
periods, which are:
-
January second week to
the week prior to Presidents' Week in February.
-
Between week after
Labor Day and the week before Thanksgiving.
-
The week following
Thanksgiving until mid-December.
Peak Attendance periods are:
-
Presidents' Day week in
February (3rd Monday in February)
-
Mid March through Late
April ("School is out - Spring Break")
-
Memorial Day weekend
(Last Monday in May)
-
Mid June through Labor
Day (First Monday in September)
-
Thanksgiving Day and
the following weekend (Fourth Thursday in November)
-
Christmas week
(December 25th) through New Year's Day.
