Yes, Orlando is generally a safe destination with heavily monitored and secure tourist corridors, though standard precautions should be used in downtown areas at night.
- The major theme parks are actually located quite far from downtown Orlando (mostly in Lake Buena Vista and southwest Orlando), meaning commutes can take 30 to 45 minutes.
- Afternoon thunderstorms are almost guaranteed every single day during the summer months, making a cheap rain poncho an essential daily accessory.
- Renting a car is highly recommended as public transportation between tourist districts is sparse, and rideshare fees can accumulate rapidly.
- Dining reservations inside the popular theme parks and major entertainment districts must be made up to 60 days in advance.
- The summer heat and humidity are brutally intense, often requiring visitors to take a midday break back at their resort pool.
