She named Universal Orlando Resort as her favourite of all the Florida theme parks, with the newly opened Jurassic World VelociCoaster among her top rides.
Alexandria suggests downloading the theme park apps to your phone, as this could help save valuable time waiting in line for rides or attractions.
She said: “Before you head to a park, check what apps you may need. Most of the parks have their own apps to help you navigate during your time there and make the most of it!
“You can find useful information like wait times and maps, as well as the entertainment and food on offer.”

Her other top tips included pre-booking dinner reservations to avoid disappointment, and to explore the dining options in some of the hotels outside of the theme parks.
She added: “Although I love an adrenaline rush, there is so much more to the parks than just the rides!
“I would recommend taking the time to explore the parks and especially make time to try the food and drink, this will also help you to break up the day so you’re not just spending time queuing for rides.
“Just because one ride has the longest line doesn’t mean it’s the best attraction in the park either!”
