When you come down to the sunshine state, we would like you to take advantage of all the great attractions Disney and the other theme parks have to offer.
One Park that is not as known is Disney Hollywood Studios.
Don't missed out on the great attractions that this park has to offer.
Hollywood Studios has something great for all the members of the family. They have the Tower of Terror and the Aero Smith Roller Coaster:
Disney, Orlando, Florida, Florida Vacations, Vacations to Disney!
Hollywood Tower of Terror
Also, it has all the mayor hits for Disney Junior, Carts and so much more. There are a lot of attractions you might have never heard from.
Not just think of Disney as Magic Kingdom, even though they are opening all the new attractions which are doubling the size of the theme park; but Hollywood Studios is one of the important ones to be at.
Remember to visit the theme park websites and print out maps, also check out the height requirement and other different in things for the attractions. The last thing you want is to spoil your family vacation because you forgot to check if your child is allowed in it!
There are many tourist information booths through the city, so make the most our of them! Don't pay for information though, at the end of the day try to save your cash for the memories that you will create and the places your family and yourself would want to visit!

5 Steps to Save Big on Your Next Disney Vacation to Orlando.!

5 Steps on How to Save a Bunch of Money on Your Next Florida Vacation!!!

Hello,

The other day I was talking about how to save over $1500 in your next vacation to Orlando, Florida.

Today, I will talk about how to save when you travel to Orlando, Florida. When people travel and stay within a resort, many of them forget to ask the locals for ideas on where to shop, or how to get to places, so they don't get lost. The point is, many tourist don't realize tourist areas are usually more expensive than regular local areas.

Examples on how to save:

1. First of all, don't shop where tourist shop. If you plan on buying some groceries to keep in your suite for breakfast or snacks... you need to ask for local supermarkets. Don't buy at the resort convenience store, or wait for someone to take you to the closest tourist supermarket, where regular items are marked up. Do some research, find the closest local supermarket (e.g. Walmart, Super Target, Publix, Winn Dixie, etc...) Try not to shop at gas stations or small stores. You can end up saving big bucks on regular items such as Milk, Soda, Bottle Water, bread, etc...

2. In order to accomplish step one, make sure you look up local zip codes, and search the closest stores based on the zip code you are near at.

3. For step number one, also,  I want you to make sure you get to know the area, at least by having a map or acquiring some knowledge prior to your trip. You don't want cab drivers to take you to the closest tourist meeting (assuming you don't rent a car). I would advice you not to rent a car, if you are planning on saving money.  If you need the freedom to move around, and want to be able to decide where to go and when, go ahead and rent a car, but remember that this choice not only entitles you to pay a fee per day, but also, taxes, gas, tourists fees, gas, gas, gas, and then tolls. YES, tolls! and lots of them. You can be prepare to pay up to $5.00 or more per trip only in tolls. Also, you should be prepare to pay for parking at the attractions. This will not be less than $14.00 per day. While, on the other hand, when you contract the services of a car driver, you only pay for the trip. Many small companies will provide you with discounts when you book ahead, and with an itinerary prior of arriving to your vacation. The cool thing about this service is that you have the service of a cab, for less money, and the freedom to go whenever and wherever you please! If you are traveling to Orlando, Florida let me know and I can hook you up with one of this companies. Email me.

4. Another piece of advice; I will let you know something that most people don't know about shopping at a Mall, or at an outlet. Go to the information center, and ask for a coupon book. It might cost you $5.00 but the amount of money you can save is unrealistic. Most retailers will include offers for up to 15-20% of your entire purchase. Also, you can get free merchandise and Bogo's offers and sales. If you are planning on hitting the shopping venues, try to go to the outlets. They offer discounted prices on most of the same merchandise you could find on the Malls. If you must go to the Mall, sign up for a shopping app if you own a smart phone, so you can get special offers and coupons to save even more.

5. Utilize the shuttles to and from the Resorts. Most attractions offer transportation to the parks, and or they make sure you can have transportation to the airport too. Like I mentioned before... Arrange for the resort to pay for your transportation. That is one of the perks of being a VIP. Resorts will do and be as generous with you if they think you will buy a vacation property with them. When you book your trip make sure you get a straight answer on whether or not they are offering you transportation to and from the airport. Most sales people will mention this, but will omit that some Resorts will only offer pick up, and therefore leaving you stranded after you have been at the sales presentation. Finally don't forget that Bus transportation is also and option, and its cheap! Leaving you with more dollars in your wallet to take advantage of the many attractions, restaurants, and shopping venues you and your family will enjoy.

OK, Folks there it is...You now have 5 steps or pieces of advice, on how to save some money when you travel to Orlando, Florida.
Let me know if you want more advice or if you need information on how to contact any of the aforementioned companies.  Email Me

Can vacations be cheap?

How many people fall for the one time deal on the phone telemarketing call trying to sell you a vacation package at an incredible price?
My answered is too many.

Think about it, a person you don't know calls you, and within 15 minutes they have asked you, your personal information, and everything from whether you are married, where you lived and where you went for your last vacation.

Please make sure you don't fall for these type of advertisers. So many of them are honest, but some many more are not. What they will do is take your information and try to get some money for it.
If you have giving them your Credit Card you should be afraid, because many of these marketers don't even have a license to operate much less a merchant account.

Therefore, when you receive one of these calls please make sure you are taking into consideration the following:
  • You are not being pressured into making a split second decision.
  • You are able to check their credentials including their license number with their state they claim to operate at.
  • Make sure they can give you a working customer service toll free number, and you are able to contact someone within hours or minutes of being contacted.  Sometimes is better just to gather the information and just make a random call to see if they do have people working at that 1800 number.
  • Check and see with the Better Business Bureau if they have any outstanding complaints and also check with the department of agriculture and consumer affairs for that state to make sure they are actually registered with any of those entities and if their complaints mean they might be doing something illegal. 
  • Save giving your credit card information. Try to ask for alternative forms of payment. Also, ask what name is going to appeared in the credit card statement. If they are calling from your holiday getaway them make sure that is the name it will appeared in the statement otherwise you are setting yourself for trouble.
  • Remember to ask for a receipt of the transaction, but before you even pay for anything make sure you have a clear understanding of the return and refund policy. These people try to get you all emotive and then claim you only had 7 days to return the package which did not even arrive at your residence for 15 days. 
  • Finally remember you are protected, if you feel you were scammed or robbed; please contact your banking or financial institution and ask to do a charge back on the transaction on the basis of not getting the promised product.
  • The law is that anything sold which is non-tangible is 100% refundable no matter what, and these people will try to convince you otherwise. Don't believe them, it is simple mentioned the word charge back to them, and they will return your money faster than fast.
Please remember there are some bad people out there harming others. Legit companies are giving consumers options to make sure they can keep content and safe. If a telemarketer is telling you, you have to do it now, then don't do it. It doesn't matter how much you seem to be saving, it is not worth it.
Now don't think that you can not be part of a great offer, and a good discounted vacation package. Those are for real! Resorts are always looking for qualified participants to promote their Time Shares... But please be safe, and try to work with someone honest. Do your homework and don't buy anything that a telemarketer tells you over the phone. Email Me if you need more information, or if you feel you have been scammed. Thanks!

Afforable Disney World Vacations to Orlando, Florida!!

Disney World Made Affordable

It is not a secret! Orlando, is a vacation destination for millions of tourist around the world.
Visitors come to Orlando, looking to have a special time with their love ones. After all Orlando, holds so many attractions and places to seek entertainment that the usual visitor would have to spend almost a whole month to see it all.

However, what happens after the vacation is over and that visitor goes back home? They go back to their towns and homes and they start looking for ways to pay off the credit cards, and also finding new income to re-gain the money they did not plan to spend when they were there. Thus defeating the purpose of having taken a vacation at all!!!

Its always the same story! But, what about utilizing the hospitality industry for your own benefit????

This is something not too many people are aware of!!!!
Resorts, which you can find abundantly in Orlando; are usually looking for individuals to come and visit them just to tour their properties and hopefully buy with them (which no one is required to do). You only have to purchase a vacation package (sold only by specific seller of travel companies in Florida) where you only pay 10% or 20% of the original cost for your accommodations, and save a bundle. To make it even a better bargain, they will compensate you for the time you spend on the "VIP Tour". Different Resorts in Orlando will offer different things, but most of them will certainly give you passes for some of the attractions, and they will pay for either your breakfast, lunch or dinner for that day.
It does not get any better than that!!!
Now, there are certain things one has to watch before purchasing from any of these so called "sellers of travel"!!!
  • First, make sure they disclosed everything in their pitch or sales presentation!
Basically don't ever buy from a telemarketer who does not proves its identity. Ask for phone number, website, email address, address, if you can buy in person, state license, affiliations, names of the resorts, find out if they are really selling for that resort, and finally do not give your credit card unless you know they are going to do a verification at the end of the sale. A verification is not only for their protection. Pay attention to what they are saying on that verification; many companies try to confuse you by a game of words; so make sure you don't agree with anything you have not agree with before.

  • Second, make sure they are not just going after your credit card, and they are willing to work with you and your needs. 

So many times we receive calls from people trying to attempt access to our credit cards, and they just expect us to be there just ready to open our wallets and handle cc numbers for them to use at their will. Make sure whoever calls you has an extension number where you can call them back, and they are OK with that.

  • Third, remember to ask for more!!!
 These companies have access to unlimited amount of resources! Don't be afraid to bargain. However, also make sure you don't miss out on the opportunity at the best vacation package deal of your life, just because you feel greedy.

  • Fourth, and final suggestion is to make sure you follow these things, and you prepare yourself to have the time of your life!!!
If you take care of everything you need to, you will be sure to not have any problems at all. Go on your vacation to Orlando, pay less than half for accommodations (and save on attraction tickets and much more), and go back home happy and wealthy by having saved a ton!!!
