Loved loved loved it, we'd been to florida 7 times before but never done DC before, it was the best day ever so kicking myself that we'd waited so long. Our youngest at the time was 6 and he loved it. He slipped of the dolphin during his swim with one🤣 but they let him have a second go lol.

Aquatica and seaworld for us are places we go to everytime, the whole family loves both of them to so we get the DC combo which includes seaworld and aquatica and we get our tickets from Orlando attractions x

We did Disney the trip before and then a cruise and the DC with add on pack the next holiday. We both agreed we enjoyed it just as much as Disney as it was more relaxed and spontaneous without need to plan meals and fast passes.We didn’t have the dolphin swim as I’d rather see dolphins in the wild and there was still plenty to do at DC for a whole day. We like Aquatica and Seaworld anyway and BG is always worth the journey . I think the DC deal is a real bargain for those who don’t feel the need to Disney on every Orlando trip.

We buy a Discovery Cove ultimate in preference to Disney as we simply prefer the parks and the package.
We no longer do the Dolphin Swim, but that day remains generally our best day in Orlando. We have now been there on our last 8 visits since first finding out about it.

Clearly we highly recommend it!

We booked for next year through Floridatix on Black Friday. We first did it when our youngest was 8, and we did the dolphin swim. We enjoyed it but it’s a one and done for us as it’s a lot of money for 20 mins with a dolphin especially when you share your time with another family!

But the day as a whole, is amazing. Food and drink on tap, the wildlife, we met Lucy the sloth, snorkelling, birds & otters. I spent most of the day on a lounger chilling with a bud light lime watching the kids, brother and Dh have amazing time in the grand reef. Plus, sea world and aquatica. Your kids would love the sesame st stuff at SW!

Fantastic day. Really good value with Seaworld, Aquatica and Busch Gardens Ultimate package. We’ve done it twice. Last time in 2019 we splashed out on a cabana. I did it as a surprise. When checking in I did my reveal to the family. It was over looking the dolphin swim area. One of the best days of our last trip. Pics in my 2019 trip report in my signature below.

I was just going to ask the same 😂

Anyone know if they kids need to know how to swim? They were going to lessons before covid but I cancelled it when everything happened and I haven’t even thought about them going back.
