Tickets or Hoppers
 

Hello everyone: <BR> <BR>We are staying in Orlando for 10 days with 3 boys (16, 14 and 11) con you recommend any theme parks for teenagers I don't think they are interested in WD, but I heard that if you go to MGM is ok to skip Univ. Studios?? We need to buy tickets can you recommend where is the best place to buy??

With boys that age I think you would be best served getting the Universal Pass for their theme parks -- Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios. (Disney's combos are Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot and MGM.)They will definately enjoy the Universal pair. All the parks are $$$$ and I think prices are going up so you may want to order from the website ASAP. I took my son (19) and daughter (23) to Islands of Adventure and we absolutely had a fab time. Just that one day was worth the cost to us...we had that much fun! It was kind of rainy and the crowds were really down. We did every "big" ride at least twice. Spiderman is the best theme park ride we've ever been on. Ten days is a long time to be in Orlando. You may want to visit Kennedy Space Center. You may also want to check out some of the beaches.

Can you get tickets through your employer? Some companies offer discount tickets or try AAA.

Hopper passes w/out a doubt

Many many thanks Diane, Freddie, and David for your help. I will visit WD, Univ. Studios & other websites to buy Hopper passes.

If you plan on visiting WDW more than the number of days on the hopper pass you may want to consider buying an annual pass. We buy the annual pass every other year and visit WDW 2-4 times during the year for around 4 days each trip. It is worth it to us. However, we live only 8 hours away. <BR> <BR>Don't know if Universal has one. But I think they have coupons for buy one day get the next day free. <BR> <BR>I have always been told that Universal has faster more teenager oriented rides. WDW does have a good number of these rides though so your kids should enjoy WDW also.

Thanks Julie: <BR> <BR>Really appreciate the advise.
