In addition, there are the water Parks: Wet"n"Wild Water Park, Cypress Gardens Adventure Park, Fantasy of Flight and Discovery Cove. It will take you many holidays to cover them all!Magic Kingdom should be the starting point especially for younger kids. It has lots for the little ones. It is home to Pirates of the Caribbean, Buzz Lightyear, Cinderella and Space Mountain.
Disney has a new great ride at Animal Kingdom which is called Expedition Everest. It takes you through the treacherous Himalayas.

The best Place to stay for value for money is a privately owned rental Orlando Villa near Disney. You will have lots of space and privacy. Most of these houses are equipped with private pools. Some even have lots to do indoors if it rains, such as games rooms, books and board games. The condos near Disney have shared pools and are often based in resorts with everything you could wish for.
Rent a car (or bring your own) at low prices and tour the area whilst you are there - if you can tear yourself away from the Theme Parks!
