Travel Tips
skip MGM--it is rather boring for most ages. Also, unless you are really interested in the boring details of making a movie (most of these people already know from the "trailers" on most DVDs these days), then skip Universal Studios.

Also, since you only have 6 days and seem to be interested in a lot of Orlando attractions, then skip Busch Gardens (even though it is truly my all-time favorite for all ages) because it is a good hour to hour and a half drive from Orlando, and there is not much else to do there. It is actually in a VERY bad part of Tampa and the only other park there is it's very own water park-Adventure Island.

If you are most interested in the rides, then you could also skip Epcot or Sea World (which only has 1 real roller coaster), but if you have to decide between the two, Sea World is nice, but tiny and you may get a deal on Epcot since you will be visiting other Disney parks (like the park-hopper passes).

Well, I hope I helped you. I am sure that whatever you decide, you will have a BLAST! So bring your camera and lots of film because you will want to capture these memories to cherish for years to come! Source(s): Native Floridian--I live in Central Florida

Busch Gardens and Animal Kingdom are similar, and also Island of Adventure is probably the worst on that list.
If I were you I'd do 5 days at Disney World, hitting all the major theme parks (one theme park per day and spending Day 5 to go back and see what I missed) and doing one day at Universal.
Skip Busch Gardens and Island of Adventure.
well it really matter's on your age group. Now i would go to Epcot, but when i was 6 and there it was boring! Would you rather see a lot of Animals or just sea animals. I did go to busch gardens.......which i would choose between it and Disney's nimal kingdom. Honestly I would try to do something non-disney as well and go to busch gardens. It has a few more thrill rides for the older audience.

Also MGM and universal Studios might overlap in entertainment in a few ways.

with all that said you ultimately need to narrow it down as it is your vacation and I can not tell you what would be better for you to do, but can only give you this imput and advice!
This is very dependent on your interests and ages of people in the travel party. Everyone has said to skip Islands, when that is one of my favorites. I would skip Busch Gardens, Disney's MGM Studios, Sea World, and Universal Studios before I would skip Islands of Adventure, but that's my taste. I know others that would say Sea World is a must see. That being said........

You definitely cannot go wrong going to the four Disney theme parks -- although, unless there are specific things you want to see at Disney's MGM Studios, you could skip that one. Universal and Islands could easily be done in one day, especially if you pay for the Universal Express upgrade to your tickets (you must be sure to buy the Express pass for both parks, if you want to use them in both parks). -- That's 6 parks in 5 days. With the last day, you could do Sea World. Busch Gardens would be an absolute skip, as it is over an hour away from Orlando and it's basically Animal Kingdom and Islands combined. Your visits to the Disney parks would have to be quick ones -- you absolutely will not see everything -- you could spend all 6 days in Magic Kingdom and still not see it all, there.
