Is Legoland Florida Worth the Cost? With new theme park Legoland Florida charging admission rates of $75 plus tax for adults and $65 plus tax for children, is the new theme park really worth the money? Opened on Oct. 15, Legoland Florida appeared on the site of the old Cypress Gardens park in Winter Haven. It's a nearly hour-long drive from the Orlando theme parks, but Legoland's strong line-up of kid-friendly attractions ought to encourage many families to make the trip to check it out. But add in parking ($15 a day) and lunch, and a family of four could easily spend $350 in a single day—plus lodging (starting at about $60 locally) and airfare. Some parents may want to paraphrase Johnny Paycheck and say, you can take all that and shove it. Is Legoland Florida worth the cost? It depends on whether you've ever been to a Legoland before. Fans have consistently rated Legoland's California park as the best in the nation for children, even ahead of the Disney parks, according to Robert Niles, editor of ThemeParkInsider.
Says Niles: "I know many East Coast and Midwestern families who've been waiting for a Legoland on their side of the country."

Disney's larger complex with greater hours of operation (in other words, Legoland closes at 5 p.m.) offers better value for the money, according to the math done by The Ledger. The newspaper found that, on a per hour basis of daily operations, Legoland costs twice as much as Disneyland's Magic Kingdom. Are there any tricks to saving on Legoland Florida? You should avoid paying the up-front admission fee. Plenty of discounts can be found online at "promo code sites," such as the always reliable Mouse Savers.
If you don't have time for online research, know that Legoland sells a two-day upgrade ticket, which gives visitors a second day in the park for an additional $15. Any other money-saving advice? Resist cries from your kids to buy souvenirs. The Lego sets sold at the park can be bought elsewhere at cheaper prices. Bottom line Vacations are about their value, not just the dollar amount—that's the Budget Travel philosophy. Families will happily splurge if they know they're going to get memories of a lifetime and that they're not going to overpay—relative to what they could find elsewhere. Legoland Florida can be a good value if you've never been to it before and if you approach it as a savvy consumer looking for discount offers.BUY ANY 4 DAY DISNEY BASE, HOPPER OR WATER PARK FUN & MORE TICKET RECEIVE A 5TH DAY FREE!

Ordered the tickets in the UK a few days before we travelled and collected the tickets which was a short drive from where we were staying, with no problems. Their staff was the best! I have bought several tickets for myself, friends, and family. Always the best prices!!! The customer service was excellent! Everyone I talked to was very helpful. We recently purchased tickets from The Official Ticket Center. We will definitely use them again! Haven't used our tickets yet, but had fast shipping, nice packaging, and saved us a ton of money! Wonderful service and spectacular ticket prices.
Bought my tickets in person vs. having them shipped and the employees were super friendly. I will recommend them to all my friends and family. Everyone should buy their tickets here! Great prices and A+++++ service! Top service, will be visiting them again when in Florida.I can't say enough about the customer service that I received from The Official Ticket Center. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about all of the different Orlando shows and attractions. I have been recommending this company to all of the visitors that come to see us in Orlando. I have never heard s bad thing about their experiences. We bought two day park hopper tickets and went to pick them up, they were waiting for us when we got there. The price was the best I found and I did a lot of looking. Also went on the website and bought tickets to Medieval Times, picked them up, the guy at the front desk called and made our reservation for us. Went to the show that night. If we come to Orlando again I'll definitely use this place.
Awesome deals, is worthy waiting for because these guys work hard getting good deals, I understand not always things come as plan but 8 out 10 things run smoothly, thank you for your patience guys!!! Bought WDW 5 day passes for the best deal we could find. Also went back and bought Boggy Creek airboat tickets. These guys were great - we booked online to pick up our three day Disney tickets at their centre, but we arrived late so wanted to go down to two days. Not only did they happily refund us, but they also said it'd be cheaper to buy from the gate as they can only discount three days or more.Very honest fare and decent prices, I would recommend them to anybody coming to this area. Quiero felicitar a todo el personal de esta compañia por su buen servicio y explicacion de cada uno de los parques que ofrecen los tickets, si uno solo compra los tickets para Disney realemnte es simbolico el descuento, para el resto de los parque si es muy bueno. el Servicio y la confianza que dan!!
