Arabian Nights

  • February 12, 2006

Very convenient to Vacation Village at Parkway. Great show. Good food. The upgrade to VIP for $15 per person gives you early access to mingle with the horses and some performers, early seating (we were front row, center), and very personal service. Beer or wine or soft drinks are complimentary the entire evening. I recommend the upgrade.

Arabian Nights – Dinner Show

It is fun if you like theatre and horses. There is good dining for this type of show and lots of parking available and free wine before dinner. We also met many people there, having gone to same RCI meetings.

Arabian Nights – Dinner Show

  • May 15, 2005
  • Rated 4 of 5 by MilwVon from Milwaukee, Wisconsin
You arrive approximately an hour in advance of the show. (Doors open 90 minutes before show time, so you can get there even earlier if you'd like.) You will first enter through a somewhat small gift shop that has all sorts of souveniors from the Arabian time period.

The next "room" where you will await show time is a large open area with a bar. Here we were treated to some very fun acrobatics and belly dancing. Bar drinks were very expensive, served in a "take home" plastic glass. HINT: If you buy one (nearly $10 each), take your souvenir glass back for any subsequent drinks that you buy, and they'll discount the price $3.50!

Once inside the show arena, you will have your choice of four dinner entrees (prime rib, chicken, chopped beef steak, or veggie lasagna). Dinner comes with salad, vegetables, and cake, plus free soft drinks, beer, and wine.

The show was very good, with lots of stunts and stories. The Arabian Nights theme is primarily focused on horses, some of the most beautiful animals I've ever seen. The actors were good and were very athletic. All in all, the show was outstanding!

Arabian Nights – Dinner Show

  • March 16, 2005
  • Rated 1 of 5 by Sae Schatz from Orlando, Florida

Last year, Arabian Nights gave all the employees at my company two free tickets, and I work at a large company. Not a good sign, I think, but the tickets ARE free. So, we drive down to International Drive and found the place. Surprisingly, there were a lot of people. Everyone was being crowded into a line outside the building (to pick-up or buy tickets). Then we were crowded into the waiting area inside the building - but not before being forced to pose for a group picture.

When we finally reach our bleachers (yes, not real seats, hardwood bleachers), we were seated and given menus. There were three dishes to choose from: meat and potatoes, some other meat and potatoes, and a vegetarian option. They also serve free beer and wine (aaahh, the highlight of the event – free wine). The food was acceptable, somewhere between yummy and poisoned.

The dinner show -- a horse-riding show with a loose Aladdin-style story thrown in -- was well-done but boring. Plus, I found the shoddy dialogue and acting tacky; I would have rather the actors just rode the horses and did not talk.

Typically, the tickets for Arabian Nights are $40 to $50 per adult and $20 to $30 per child. There are discount coupons (for $10 to $15 per person) on their website.

Overall, I think I paid the right price for my tickets. I think I would have felt cheated if I had spent any more. It was not a bad experience, but I can find better things to do with my time and money. I bet you can too.

What an enjoyable experience! Everything was great. The food and the drinks were good, but what truly impressed all of us was how well trained the horses were. Hats off to a hard working team!
