Everything YOU need to know before you visit Orlando Florida. Florida is the epicenter of the world for theme parks and Orlando is the capital. Orlando is a magical place where no one is too old, or too young, to wear Mickey ears or wave a Harry Potter wand. Orlando is conveniently located near other popular Florida destinations such as the beaches of the Gulf Coast and the Florida Keys, which can make for a great day trip or add-on to a longer vacation.

    Thanks Chris for promoting Orlando. Everything you said is true based on my two year resident experience here in Orlando. Moved from Mid-Atlantic area. Most people here are happy. Big contrast. Living among jolly people is very helpful to physical and mental health.
  • @sicariobrother316
    Orlando is one of the best cities in Florida I have lived! Love Florida in general
  • @GeronimoClawz
    Be sure to stop by downtown winter garden, that place is gorgeous.
  • Thanks Chris for showing more of Orlando than Disneyworld. I was there as a teenager as I won a 3 day trip to Disneyworld, Sea world ,and the Daytona 500 races. I have a good friend who liked tō visit from CT ,and about 6 yrs ago bought a second home, a 2-Bedroom modular unit on a lake. He goes down 5-6 times a year to escape the cold and snowy Winter's here. H e does have a good friend to look after his home there .I may have to visit in the near future as I love Disneyworld.

    All this advice is spot on, we flew into Tampa for our Orlando vacation, tickets were almost $100 cheaper per person, which saved us $400, about an hour drive to Disney, also, we visited in July, the humidity was unbearable, and we’were chased out of the waterparks because of lightning, people will do well to take your advice Chris.
  • You are the Bomb, sir! I can't thank you enough for how much you made my trip! Thank you so much. FYI I have been watching your videos since way back and learned a lot about Las Vegas thanks to you. Keep being awesome, and I appreciate everything you do.
  • dont go in any lake in Orlando there will be alligators in them and that includes the man-made lakes, they search for water
  • @TZeroZeroOne
    Additional topics perhaps: (1) time-sharing condo rentals; (2) budget alternatives in Kissimmee etc; (3) the outstanding restaurants in Epcot and their reservation system
  • @NothingMaster
    A great presentation. 👏🏻 Your unsinkable enthusiasm is infectious, Chris.
  • @undisgraziato
    I rented from Dollar last month, quick easy and convenient. I used directions without tolls and drove all over for free. Just try to keep out of the left lanes, so you don’t accidentally get charged.

    I've only been to Orlando twice, and funny enough, both trips were business trips, so I only got to see downtown Orlando. It's quite a nice city overall. I would like to go back at some point to check out some of the attractions. I'm glad that there are other cool things to do there beside just the theme parks!
  • Greetings from Korea 🇰🇷 😊❤ I am originally from Florida 😊 and had the annual passes to every amusement park in Orlando
  • @jameshiga8077
    Hi Chris. Thanks for the great info. Nice to know that there are a lot more smaller attractions to check out than just the big ones. Take care.
  • @arthurhorne6491
    Thanks for all the info !!! Will see you in December/ January !! Regards from us in South Africa !!!!
  • @Jeannified
    Fantastic video, Chris! We are planning on going in the spring of 2024. This is great information to help us plan!
  • @edvaira6891
    Chris, Orlando is one of the best places, if you’re renting a car, to actually rent a vacation home! Our last two trips, in Jan 2017 and Dec 2019/Jan 2020, we rented really nice big vacation homes in suburban Davenport (2000 sq ft and four bedrooms with a private pool) only about eight miles away from Disney, for less than $150/ night
  • @garsu9017
    Good job as usual Chris. A lot of choices in Orlando.
