Things to do at Orlando, Florida
If you are planning to visit Disney World on vacation, one of the first
decisions you need to make is when to go. While special events and
promotions might have some influence on theme park attendance, you
might want to consider when Disney World's highest theme park
attendance is. Weekends in May, and June, July, and the first half of
August are extremely crowded, as is Thanksgiving week, Christmas week,
and New Year's week. If you don't like crowds and have a choice, you
might want to avoid these times.
WEATHER CHECK
The coolest month is January, which is pleasantly mild in the afternoon with
a high around 70 degrees.
The Atlantic hurricane season begins June 1 and runs through Nov. 30,
with the highest storm probability from August through October. If you are
concerned about your trip being interrupted by a hurricane, check into
buying travel insurance. Or avoid the issue completely by not going to
Orlando at that time of year.
