Universal Orlando Resort

Use your Disney timeshare to visit Florida if not just to see only one other location in Florida, Universal Orlando Resort. Like Disney World, it has exciting rides, entertaining shows and assorted dining spots that have movie themes. There are assorted activities for all ages and walks of life. Its most popular attraction to date is The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

SeaWorld Orlando

One of the better known Orlando attractions near Disney World, SeaWorld Orlando is a great place for lovers of marine life. There are exhibits, up-close encounters, musicals, roller coasters, kiddy rides and other marine life-themed activities. It also has Sesame Street characters with special performances on special occasions and the holiday seasons. Buy a Disney timeshare and see this site for a chance to meet the world famous orca Shamu and his friends.

Orlando Science Center

For an educational experience, visit the Orlando Science Center. A self-proclaimed perfect trip for bad weather, its displays are interactive and instructive. Check out its current featured movies or opt for the planetarium show and watch it on the gigantic screen. Its latest addition is a section dedicated to interpreting the weather on the fourth floor.

Ripley’s Believe It or Not!

While you’re at the tourist strip known as International Drive, visit the sinking boat housing Ripley’s Believe It or Not. Home to the weirdest and most fascinating objects known to man, this Odditorium will bring out all sorts of emotions from amazement to disgust. Large groups can even ask for a scavenger hunt activity if they call in advance. Try out its shooting gallery and see how many oddities you can hit.

WonderWorks Orlando

If you’ve never been a big fan of science, WonderWorks Orlando could make you a believer. Taking a scientific approach on fun things, it has areas dedicated to exposing and explaining space exploration, beds of nails, sports, vision and more. Learn first hand by interacting with these mind-blowing exhibits. Other attractions include a 4D theater, a rope course and a Lazer-Tag area.

Fun Spot USA

If you’re all about rides, rides and more rides, Fun Spot USA is definitely one of the Orlando attractions near Disney that you have to see. It has the tallest sky coaster and the “extreme-est multi-level tracks” in the world. Extreme rides aren’t all that the site has to offer. It also has several rides for kids, a refreshment stand and a diverse arcade.

Gatorland

This attraction is not for the herpetophobic. Gatorland houses alligators and crocodiles that you can ride (not real ones, of course) and be in awe of (real ones). Go during show times and see its scaly actors scarily interact with human ones. There is also a petting zoo, pool and aviary among its highlighted spots. Make sure to visit the rare white alligators with blue eyes at White Gator Swamp.

The first two Orlando attractions near Disney World are definitely popular and, most likely, crowded places to visit. Make sure to get reservations with them when you book your Disney timeshare. If you still have time, explore Florida on your own. You never know what treasures you could find when you’re not really looking.

A Bug’s Land

Head north afterwards and enter A Bug’s Land, a section of Disneyland entirely dedicated to the movie A Bug’s Life. With 6 attractions to try out, you’d need to book at least a weekend with your Disney timeshare to enjoy all of them. Ride that inventive ant’s latest contraption on Flik’s Flyers. Spin around while that manly ladybug dances in Francis’ Ladybug Boogie. Bump your acrobatic pill bug around in Tuck and Roll’s Drive ‘Em Buggies. Get wet and cool off at the Princess Dot Puddle Park afterwards. If you’re not hungry, you will surely gain an appetite after the savory scents from Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train.

Magic Kingdom Theme Park

In the Magic Kingdom, have a few chuckles with Mike Wazowski at the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor located at the entrance of Tomorrowland. If you prepare a joke and text it in at the start of the show, you might get it included in Mike’s skit. Then go into the hub of Tomorrowland and shoot at Evil Emperor Zorg’s minions with lasers on Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin. Afterwards, see if you’ll be deemed Galactic Hero, the highest Star Command rank. Then, take pictures with your favorite Toy Story characters and get their autographs by looking for Buzz in Tomorrowland and Woody and Jessy in Frontierland.

Epcot

Epcot is another theme park to visit especially for Finding Nemo and Ratatouille lovers. See all the undersea wonders at The Seas with Nemo & Friends Pavilion. Ride aboard a clam and help Marlin and Dory find Nemo. Sit down and listen to a 100-year-old reptile with Turtle Talk with Crush. If you get hungry, go deep into the World Showcase and request for a table at Chefs de France at the France Pavilion. Make sure to get a reservation ahead of time and ask for it to be during Remy’s shift to see the little animatronic chef in action.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Check out the parade schedule at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to see show time schedules for the floats featuring characters from The Incredibles, A Bug’s Life, Ratatouille, Monsters, Inc., Up and Toy Story.  Turn right at Mickey’s giant wizard hat and be inspired by The Magic of Disney Animation.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

On Discovery Island, at the heart of Disney’s Animal Kingdom is the Tree of Life, a giant tree sculpted with 325 animals. After finding the hidden Mickey, go down into the roots and behold the 3D marvels in It’s Tough to be a Bug. Head for the eastern edge soon after to enjoy a song-filled adventure with Finding Nemo – The Musical. You’ll find yourself enjoying the musical compositions made for classic lines like “Just Keep Swimming” and “Fish are Friends, Not Food”.

If you’re just out to see Pixar stuff, a weekend is probably enough. To get the full Disney World experience though, you’d probably need a week. Stay at a Disney hotel for less with a Disney timeshare to have a vacation you won’t forget.

Hong Kong Disneyland Resort has three attractions: a Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters in Tomorrowland, a Toy Story Zoetrope in the Art of Animation exhibit on Main Street, U.S.A. and Turtle Talk with Crush.

When the word Disney World comes to mind, most would think of a child’s playground and imagination gone wild. These people haven’t been to Epcot or they would find themselves in an adult’s playground full of wonders that could make a grown up’s imagination go wild. Book a hotel with a Disney timeshare and you’re sure to enjoy a few days of culture, great cuisine and good clean adult fun.

Conception

Epcot stands for Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, a city that would be ecologically-friendly and technologically-advanced. It was originally conceptualized by Walt E. Disney himself and his thoughts on his proposed society were put on film 2 months before he died in 1966. The city would be placed on the northernmost tip of Disney World and would house its employees. A monorail would take people in and out of the city and an underground rail system would deliver goods in and wastes out. No one would own any of the property but only so that he could advance the technologies used as they came to be. This meant all houses would have the latest appliances.

Construction

His utopia was not welcomed with open arms by his board but his son incorporated some of his beliefs into what came to be called as the Epcot center, which became simply Epcot as it grew. They took his futuristic plans without the ideals behind it. They adapted the use of the monorail and the underground transportation, two things still in use at all Disney resorts. Instead of looking like a community, however, a section of the Disney World addition was made to look like a world exposition with its modern architecture and innovative design. Named Future World, it contains an iconic geodesic dome, pavilions on the future, science, land and energy and rides on space, motor vehicles and the sea.

The flower garden is one of Epcot's spectacular views.

Countries

Walt Disney’s plans for an International Street also took fruition with the World Showcase. With a Disney timeshare, you can afford to visit all 11 countries from start to finish, namely Mexico, Norway, China, Germany, Italy, USA, Japan, Morocco, France, UK and Canada. One of the few theme parks to serve alcoholic beverages in the entire resort, it is a favorite place for adults to visit for the cultural and culinary experiences gained from visiting each country.

Celebrations

The best times to visit and use your Disney timeshare would be during the three major annual events. The Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival held in spring is a great occasion for garden lovers. A parade of plants in the shape of Disney characters are on display and enthusiasts can get advice from the experts on how to grow their own flora. The Epcot International Food and Wine Festival is a more popular event for obvious reasons. It features celebrity chefs, additional countries and gourmet delicacies and beverages. The third event is the Holidays Around the World where each country shows how they celebrate the season. It is the only time you’ll see a special version of Illuminations: Reflections of Earth, the theme park’s famous fireworks and waterworks display.

If you’re planning on some time off with friends, your Disney timeshare is best used in Epcot. This theme park brings out your inner child while keeping the adult in you entertained. And did I mention it is one of the few places where you can get alcohol in Disney World?

The best way to celebrate a fairytale wedding is to do it with Disney. We’re not talking about it as a theme, but actually having the wedding destination at a Disney World Resort. Add a Disney timeshare in the mix, and you have yourself a Disneyland honeymoon to boot. Here are a few reasons to go for a Disney wedding.

1. A Disney wedding is all-inclusive. Even their most basic collection includes the food, wine and cake. They’ll even handle the music, although you have an option to bring in your own entertainment.
2. They also offer a free customized save-the-date website for all your invited guests. It comes with a registry, customized polls, photo albums and a guestbook for friends. The Couture Collection even has wedding invitations to match the selected theme.
3. Flowers and other decorations are also given as they will take care of the motif and theme. What better fantasy backdrop could you ask for than Cinderella’s own castle? You can even hold the wedding and the reception at choice spots, even the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.
4. No other wedding destination could give you such unique transportation as Disney could. You are given the option to ride in Cinderella’s crystal coach and not worry about it turning into a pumpkin. You can also go classic and ride a handsome carriage, complete with white horse.
5. You are provided with a Disney wedding planner. Someone will help you program all that is needed to be done for a successful big day up to a year before the actual nuptials. If you are up for a more extravagant affair, an entire team will be there to assist you with all the hullaballoo.
6. As a wedding destination, it won’t burn a hole in your pocket since a Disney timeshare can lower your costs significantly. Going to the Caribbean with your loved ones, entourage and guests would be more expensive.
7. By going to a Disney World Resort, the party never has to end. All reception venues are charged by the hour and Disneyland is not an exception. But after your three to five hour dinner, you and your guests can roam around and enjoy the rest of the facilities the place has to offer.
8. Your Disney wedding can really go straight to the honeymoon. When you wake up from a night of celebrating, you have a whole plethora of things to do within Disney World Resort. Even if you don’t own a Disney timeshare, you can rent them out and enjoy a Disneyland vacation.
9. Disney isn’t just for the kids but also for the kids at heart. The destination also has many luxurious and relaxing spots to hang out in. The Disney Cruise Line has spas, salons and pools that are for adults only. You can also enjoy a fine dining experience at Epcot’s World Showcase.

A Disney wedding isn’t the cheapest option for a wedding destination but if you’re going for a memorable wedding, have it at the Disney World Resort. Plus, you always have the option of a Disney timeshare to make the most of a stay at Disneyland.

The Top 5 Disney Theme Parks in the World and their Highlights

One of Disney's beautiful parks

What is now probably the largest company of resorts, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, started out as a simple park constructed under the supervision of Walt Disney himself called Disneyland. This theme park, in Anaheim, California, was built with the purpose of letting kids and their parents have fun. Over time, the company has built elsewhere in the US and now even has enterprises that are family-oriented elsewhere in the world. Aside from these, they have also come up with Disney timeshare where you and your family can take part in so that you can come back and visit anytime you want, without having to worry about the season because you will have your own place to stay. The following are the top 5 Disney theme parks in the world and their highlights.

1. Disneyland Resort (Anaheim, California)

This is the original Walt Disney Resort which is the only resort created under the supervision of Walt Disney. It has opened since 1955 and still around for people to enjoy. This is the model that other later projects elsewhere based their parks on.

This has two parks and because it is so small, it has no room left for expansion. This park consists of eight themed areas that hold a variety of restaurants, attractions, shops, and live entertainment. The areas or “lands” are:

• Main Street, U.S.A.
• Adventureland
• Critter Country
• New Orleans Square
• Fantasyland
• Frontierland
• Mickey’s Toontown
• Tomorrowland

The other one in California is Disney’s California Adventure which opened back in 2001. This was built on the original parking lot of Disneyland Park. The theme of this park is the history of California. However, this park had to exert effort just to look for its audience. As of September 2009, it has been going through a remarkable renovation.

1. Walt Disney World Resort (Lake Buena Vista, Florida)

This resort saw to it that it will be big enough to allow for expansions and other changes that might be needed in the future. Walt Disney World Resort, more popularly known as Disney World, has four theme parks.

• Magic Kingdom (1971)
• This is the first Walt Disney World park. To this day, it is the most visited theme park elsewhere in the world and has even reached total number of visitors of over 17 million in 2008.
• Epcot (1994)
• Originally, this was called the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow Center which opened back in 1982. This theme park combines world cultures (World Showcase) and scientific achievements (Future World) and have attractions that take us to the future.
• Disney’s Hollywood Studios (2008)
• This theme park has opened since 1989 and was originally called Disney-MGM Studios as a movie production facility with an attached theme park. However, film production has stopped in the 1990’s and so it became what it is today.
• Disney’s Animal Kingdom (1998)
• Just after its opening, Disney promoted the park using “nahtazu”, a fictional Swahili word and read as ‘not a zoo’ to imply that it is not just a regular zoo, but an animal conservation center. This phrase hasn’t been used since January 2006.

1. Tokyo Disney Resort (Tokyo, Japan)

This theme park is owned as well as operated by the Oriental Land Company, not by the Walt Disney Company. It opened back in 1983 and to this day, holds the third spot of the most attended among the theme parks in the world.

• Tokyo DisneySea (2001)

Costing over US$4B, this is the most expensive theme park to have ever been created. It features dramatic futuristic rides and a nautical theme.

1. Disneyland Resort Paris (Paris, France)

Parc Disneyland was originally known as Euro Disney and it had to take efforts to acclimatize to the local culture. This is the largest park constructed that was based on the original Disneyland with 140 acres of land area.

• Walt Disney Studios Park (2002)

It is a replica of Florida’s Disney’s Hollywood Studios though it never became a working film production studio. Its theme is show business.

1. Hong Kong Disneyland Resort (HongKong)

This theme, consisting of only one theme park (in 2009), opened back in 2005 and is a joint business enterprise between the Hong Kong government and The Walt Disney Company. In contrast with the other parks, this is the smallest edition of the original Disneyland. It is created bearing in mind the local culture and it is continually being developed.

The Walt Disney Company has definitely given ‘theme park’ a new definition and has taken fun at a whole new level. Not only do they bear children in mind but adults too, bringing out the child in them and taking them to memories of happier old days. Disney timeshare is also another happy offer for adults and their families to enjoy.

Anyone who hears about ‘Magic Kingdom’ will have the feeling that they are going someplace where they will witness firsthand magic in real life. That’s one of the factors that get us excited over the place. And we hear a lot of people who have been there to share their own stories of fun and adventure that we can’t help but wonder what it feels like to actually visit the place. If you are one of those people who just need to go back to Disney World over and over again, you can always take part in Disney timeshare. This means you will be able to buy real estate interest in any Disney resort. Whether you’re going to stay for a day or a week, you don’t have to worry because you’ll have your own place to land. This is especially beneficial when you go during peak season.

There are so many things you can do in Disney World. Being the world’s biggest recreational resort, you’ll need more than 3 days at most to finish exploring the entire area. And probably a week or so to finish trying out every ride there is and meeting every Disney character there. Disney world offers a lot of fun things to do that it is virtually impossible for anyone to get bored.

Excitement over a Disney vacation might be an understatement. Lots of families go there all the time. Each of them who have planned to go for a visit definitely did some organizing. From the things they’re going to do to the food they’re going to eat and the place they’re going to stay. Each detail is important because Disney World is certainly worth the effort. Let me share my Disney vacation experience with you.

My 6-day Trip to Disney World

My first and only trip to Disney World is one of the most memorable vacations I’ve had. It was so much fun and it was so worth the time and the money to get there. The trip would not have been possible if it weren’t for my friend who is from Orlando. He took me to the place so I could experience the fun-filled, magical place of Disney World. He also told me about the benefits of having a Disney timeshare. It’s a great way to spend your money on. There were a lot of things that we did there and the 6 days were almost enough to get me satisfied.

• Day 1

We went to Disney Quest. We spent the entire afternoon playing the different fun games they had.  We rode the Pirates of the Caribbean Ship. It was the Battle for Buccaneer Gold and we had to fire our cannons at other buccaneers so that we could reach the gold first. The boat would turn along with the waters and we also got splashed as cannonballs were shot at us. We also plunged down this primitive rifer on a river raft and we were taken back to the Dinosaur Age in the Virtual Jungle Cruise. It was a lot of splashing in this 4D ride. Aside from that, we also tried all the other fun stuff there and the more memorable one was the ride we took in CyberSpace Mountain. It was definitely an afternoon of activities for us.

• Day 2

This day was spent inside Disney Hollywood Studios.

• Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage – This was one wonderful show. The performers danced and sang songs of this lovely classic and it really reminded me of my younger years.
• Disney Channel Rocks – There’s a stage in the middle where performers sing songs from popular shows on Disney channel like Hannah Montana, Sonny with a Chance, Shake It Up!, and so much more.
• Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular – Actors played out some scenes from the movie and ended with some fun activities that included participation from the audience.
• “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids!” Movie Set Adventure – This is where you get to experience being shrunk. Everything inside here is made big and you can climb, crawl and everything else as a shrunken adult.
• Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show! – This is the most memorable show for me during this day. It was full of car chases and amazing stunts and blasts. They showed us what really happens in most movie car chases.

Unfortunately the lines were long because it was summer and it took us some time to get to the rides so we decided to come back the following day to try out the things we weren’t able to enjoy. A Disney timeshare would have been a great way to spend the rest of the day.

• Day 3

Again, we came to visit Disney Hollywood Studios to try out the things we weren’t able to do the day before.

• Fantasmic! – This 25-minute of nighttime fireworks and water show headed by no other than Mickey Mouse himself was one amazing show. It was filled with different effects that got every audience awed.
• The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror – This is one terrifying yet fun and breath stopping experience. The mystery that was around the place and the sudden plunge 13 stories down was just amazing.
• Voyage of The Little Mermaid – This dive under the sea had me witness one of my favorite Disney movies of all time. Puppets and sweeping sets had me feel like I was really with Ariel the whole time.
• Studio Backlot Tour – We went on a tour around the area, walking around and aboard a tram ride and we were shown the special effects in the movies that were made there. It was fun and thrilling for a half-hour tour.

• Day 4

This day was spent in Epcot. We enjoyed the following attractions:

• Mission: SPACE
• The Seas with Nemo and Friends Ride
• Honey, I Shrunk the Audience
• Soarin’ – A motion simulation that makes you feel like there’s no gravity.

• Day 5

This day was spent in Magic Kingdom and the following day as well. We enjoyed the following attractions:

• Pirates of the Caribbean
• Splash Mountain – This one had a line that was so long it took us almost an hour just to get in.
• It’s a Small World – A very happy ride and filled with kids and their parents.
• ‘Wishes’ Fireworks show – This is a must watch.

Unfortunately, it was a busy day and we weren’t able to do as much as we could so we had to come back.

• Day 6

This is the last day of our short trip and we enjoyed the following:

• The Haunted Mansion
• Space Mountain
• Peter Pan’s Flight

Interested in a Disney Vacation?

Now that I’ve told you about my experience, you may have been convinced

to take a trip to Disney too. Disney World is so much fun that it would really be great to go back over and over even if you have tried everything there is to try. Being a Disney timeshare owner would definitely be a worthy investment. Not only will you have someplace to live during your trip but you can also have it rented out so that you get something in return too while it’s not in use.

Disney World vacation is one trip you and your family should take. It will be a very memorable vacation for the entire family and will leave your kids with happy thoughts when they look back on their childhood. It’s also one great way to bond with everyone in your family. The place is not only for kids, I can tell you that. It will bring out the child in you and will make you forget your worries if only for a while.

Spending more than a day in one theme park is a must, if you think that one day is not enough to explore one. In our case, it was during the summer and it was packed with lots of families that it took us almost hours in waiting in lines just to enjoy the rides and attractions. It was all worth it though. The throngs of people were also a good thing because it made the entire experience even more wonderful. It made us experience something fun and great with other people too.

A Disney timeshare is something really worthy of my money and could be yours too. Enjoying the entire Disney World really needs time and you can go back anytime and you don’t have to worry where you’ll stay. Although hotels are available everywhere, it’s still something nicer if you can consider someplace your own. Despite the short trip (I consider it short because I wanted to spend more time there), I had a fun time trying out the most popular attractions they have.
