FLIGHTS, CAR HIRE & ADVICE

 

Many guests will doubtless be perfectly happy to sort out all aspects of their holiday on their own. Equally however, some may be less experienced in travel generally, or perhaps specifically in the US and Florida, and be looking for further assistance.

As we ourselves learned many years ago, when it comes to travel there really is no substitute for knowledge and first-hand experience. As a consequence of this, we would like to extend a free service to all those interested in booking our villa, by advising and assisting with flights, car hire and any other issues that are part of your great Orlando holiday.


Flights We can advise you on the various flight options (carriers, Florida airports, fares, arrival times etc) that are available to you and guide you towards the best ticket sources. We would even be delighted, at no charge, to search flight options, availability, costs etc for you.

Car rental A rental car is an essential part of an Orlando holiday. There are a myriad car rental companies and different vehicles available, to say nothing of a bewildering and widely varied range of rates.  

We can advise you on the best vehicle for your party and also on which rental companies are the best for service, quickest to get through when you arrive at the airport and also which have the best prices.

Driving If you have never driven in the US, do not worry. Driving in Florida is pretty easy with traffic densities generally much lower than in the UK and of course roads which are considerably wider. Signage is excellent and American drivers are generally much more patient than British ones.

Do not hesitate to ask if there is anything about driving in and around Orlando that concerns you or about which you would like to know more. We will clear directions from your arrival airport to Citrus Grove Villa, in the villa itself, there are maps and clearly written directions to all of the attractions.

Attractions There is so much to see and do in Orlando and Florida generally that you will not be able to fit everything in on one holiday. Planning is the key to a really successful holiday and, if you have not before experienced what is on offer, it can be bewildering and quite difficult to know what to do and what not to do.

All of the various theme parks and attractions portray themselves as ‘must visit’ places. However, as with a lot of advertising, some reading between the lines may be necessary and not all may be to your taste or requirements. If you would like guidance on the attractions and which are perhaps best suited to you and your family/group and which are perhaps not, please ask us and we will seek to assist you.

Tickets Many of the theme parks and attractions offer a number of different ticket options. Some may be better purchased before you depart the UK, others can be better purchased once you have arrived in Orlando.

We can advise you on all the various ticket options for the various attractions, the options that best suit your needs or expectations, as well as the best places to purchase them.

Climate Whilst Florida generally has a wonderfully warm and sunny climate, it does have seasons and, depending on what time of the year you are visiting, there are slight variances that may need to be taken account of when considering your packing and what you take.

We cannot control the weather or predict what it will do on any given week in any given year, but we would be more than happy to help you with general climate information and questions that you may have.

General Quite simply, if there is anything else that you want to ask or anything else that you would like to know more about, please do let us know. We will do everything we can to assist you and provide you with the real facts and honest feedback based on everything that we ourselves have learned over the years.
