Help Please

Me and my partner are in Orlando for 17 nights end of April, start of May. Trying to plan an itinerary before purchasing tickets, here’s what we have so far, on the days where we just have one park we plan to get there early and stay as late as possible to do the evening events.

Day 2: US/IOA
Day 3: US/IOA
Day 4: Volcano Bay
Day 5: MK
Day 6: HS
Day 7: Kennedy Space Centre then evening at Cocoa Beach
Day 8: Typhoon Lagoon then Disney Springs
Day 9: Epcot
Day 10: AK
Day 11: Blizzard Beach then HS
Day 12: Mall at Millenia, Celebration and Old Town
Day 13: Kissimmee am, possible air boat tour then US/IOA
Day 14: ? Perhaps re visit favourite water park and dinner in Ohana.
Day 15: Outlet shopping, Epcot then Boardwalk
Day 16: AK/HS
Day 17: MK
Day 18: check out and breakfast at Chef Mickeys.

I’m concerned we don’t have much down time although will use water parks as rest days. Partner wants to go to Busch Gardens too but not sure if we can fit it in. Days will be swapped around depending on opening hours and crowd calendars.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks

Hi, I'd leave out the water park days or just concentrate on one and go twice at most. Also the boat trip could be left out as Busch Gardens has so much more to recommend it.
Hope that helps :-)

Thank you :-) is one day at Busch Gardens worth $195 for two of us including parking? It feels a waste when for £234 we could get the 14 day pass including Sea World and Aquatica but don’t think we’d have chance to go there!

Personally I wouldn’t bother with Busch Gardens. It’s a tiring journey down and has a few good rides but nothing amazing. I think the first 7 days looks too hectic and tiring, personally I think doing more than 3 park days in a row is a tough ask. You need to do a couple of rest days. I’d suggest water park morning then resort pool rest of day then if you have energy do Disney springs but otherwise get an early night and do a rope drop the next day.

I wouldn't bother with Busch Gardens either, couldn't be bothered making the trip for one thing and also don't see the point in the extra expense, I don't think you need SeaWorld / Aquatica tickets either, your itinerary is already busy.

We travel as two adults and can easily do theme parks most days for two weeks, although at weekends we would probably only pop in for a couple of hours at most.

Couple of thoughts...
remember you could go early to the parks come away for a chill and a swim and go back early eve for fireworks etc. Don’t feel you have to do early till late. Parks also tend to get busier as day moves on.

Busch gardens I would tend to agree with others but what we have done a couple of times given the drive is go early and do BG then go onto Clearwater Beach and stay over for a night. Have a lovely meal on the beach watching the sunset then next day beach time and a boat trip to see dolphins before heading home.

Hope helpful. Enjoy !

Busch Gardens is a bit of a drive too! Sounds like a busy trip so you may want to avoid long days... Looks like a good plan though
