We added a couple of optional activities beyond CityWalk Universal Orlando and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Orlando is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Disney's Animal Kingdom. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.

Everything was handled for us — flights, hotel, transfers, and tours to Celebration Main Street and Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom. Great communication from the consultant before departure too.

Our trip to Orlando was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Gatorland was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.

Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex alone was worth the trip, but combined with Universal Studios Florida this itinerary really delivered. Breakfast at the hotel was good every day and the local guide was knowledgeable.
