Orlando Holiday Tips
Advise your bank and credit card company that you are travelling abroad
Change some sterling into dollars before you go. It is wise to take dollar travellers cheques but there are plenty of ATMs where you can withdraw cash with a debit card
You and any additional drivers need both parts of your driving licence to hire a car
Carry a picture driving licence as you will need ID when using a credit card
You need to be over 21 to drink alcohol in a bar or restaurant – carry ID as you may be challenged
It is traditional to tip in Orlando – 15 - 20 per cent depending on the level of service
Turn your phone off roaming to make sure you’re not charged unnecessarily whilst you’re in the US. Check out with your mobile provider before you leave
Families often take walkie-talkies with them to keep in touch with one another in the Theme Parks
If any of your party has special needs, you couldn’t have chosen a better destination. Ask your tour operator to advise on the best hotels to meet your needs
All Theme Parks are equipped for visitors with special needs and wheelchairs can be rented
It is strongly recommended to buy travel insurance covering you and your family
