A magical holiday destination that will create memories which last a lifetime, there really is no place like Florida.

Get lost in the exhilaration of iconic theme parks before unwinding in the great outdoors as the city caters to adrenaline junkies and relaxation seekers alike. The diverse array of activities on offer makes this the ideal destination for anyone seeking a special, fun-filled getaway.

Any mention of Florida immediately conjures up images of Walt Disney World Resort and Universal Orlando Resort in Orlando and they are most definitely a treat for the young and young at heart. Be prepared for the ride of your life in the ‘Theme Park Capital of the World’. Race from ride to rollercoaster at some of the world’s most famous theme parks and water parks, and if the fun gets too much head to the shopping malls and dining districts for a slower way to spend your day.
