The Unofficial Guide To Walt Disney World
Price: £12.99
While Walt Disney World stands for fun, fun, fun, it comes at a hefty cost--long waits, huge crowds and high prices. As Bob Sehlinger writes in his Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World "when it comes to Walt Disney World you either need a plan or a frontal lobotomy". As the huge complex of theme parks has grown to roughly the size of Boston, so has Sehlinger's guide, from less than 200 pages to over 800. While that may seem formidable, every one is chock full of invaluable information for making the most of your time and money, with the least amount of hassle.

Okay, so you’ve seen dolphins and maybe even killer whales jump out of the water to be hand fed fish. Well at Gatorland you’ll see some of the largest alligators in the world jump four to five feet out of the water to snatch food from the trainer’s hand.

And then there’s Alligator Wrestling! You heard the man. In a shaded 800 seater stadium witness man against beast as a lucky member of the audience is selected to wrestle an eight foot crocodile! Only joking! But Gatorland do have wranglers who are brave enough to do just that for your viewing pleasure. And we’re not joking when we tell you that the more adventurous among you can join the wrestlers in the ring for the all new Rookie Wrestlin’ Experience!

There’s also a breeding marsh with boardwalk and observation tower, one-of-a-kind reptilian shows, a miniature water park (kids - you’re gonna get soaked!), a flamingo lagoon, an aviary, snakes of Florida, a train ride and a petting zoo where you can touch and feed deer, tortoises, emus, llama, and goats.

Gatorland is just 15 minutes from Disneyland and Seaworld and is an excellent place to spend half a day if you are visiting Florida. It’s open 9.00am to 6.00pm every day, come rain or shine, and you’ll appreciate the fre parking and lack of queues.

What’s more it is superb value at US$19.95 plus tax for adults and kids aged 13 and over and just US$9.95 for three to 12 year olds. You can save even more money by using this discount coupon (good for up to six adults).

And don’t forget to say hello to Cobalt, the only known blue alligator in the world, when you drop by.
