 As a travel agent, my clients LOVE this book August 3, 2008
I've been a travel agent for 20+ years, and always send this book to my clients who are visiting Walt Disney World as a little gift to help them plan their trip. I must admit that it can be a bit "daunting" because it's a thick book, and there are really no pictures to speak of. . . but it's FILLED with GREAT information! All of my clients have just raved about the book. If I had any "complaint", it would be that it will sometimes give specific room numbers that are the best, so sometimes clients don't understand that the hotels do not actually assign your room number until you arrive at the hotel. Anything can be made as a "special request" before you arrive, but in reality, you'll receive whatever is available at the time you check-in. The earlier you check-in, the better your chances of getting the room you want, if it's available.
Also, I used to work at Walt Disney World. . . and honestly. . .I like the fact that this is the "unofficial" guide, meaning that Disney has no control over it. I also really like the fact that there's information about other things to do in Orlando as well. It's a very good overall guide to the area.
best bet for your planning August 1, 2008
This book was fantastic in guiding my planning. Very comprehensive and detailed; touring plans are great and they work. I tagged so many pages in my planning process...my husband laughed at how much time I was spending on this trip planning but midway through our first day at Disney, he couldn't thank me enough! Good insight on fear factor for young children, fast pass info accurate plus plenty of tips for things you wouldn't normally think of doing/having on hand for a 'regular' vacation. Highly recommended!
Disney Maagic July 29, 2008
This is a must have book to enjoy the Parks at DW. We smilled all the time at the parks following the one day tours. Wait times were very reasonalble and we felt that we saw the best parts of each and rode the best rides. Most importantly we arrived each day prepared for a day of adventure. The entire family, two parents and two teenage girls had a pleasant experience.

Very informative. Love the itineraries. This is the second time I have purchased this book. The only bad thing is that the book can get real negative on vacationing at Disney and sometimes you'll be second guessing yourself on why you are going there in the first place. But generally a good book to have before going to Disney.
Survived Disney with the help of this book July 22, 2008
I would highly recommend this book to anyone visiting Disney for the first time. It can be an extremely overwhelming vacation especially if you go wothout any plan of attack. My husband, children (ages 5 & 7) and I just returned from Disney and found this book to be of great value, especially the reviews of the attractions. We didn't stay at a WDW resort so I cannot comment on that section. The many suggestions offered, like getting to the parks before they open, were invaluable. We did not follow the tour plans offered at the back of the book, but instead, catered our plan based on our childrens' interests. We utilized the book to make advance reservations for a character dinner, which was enjoyable since many characters in the park have such long lines to have a picture with them. I would definitely bring this book along to your hotel (not in the park, it's too heavy) to make your daily plan. A good buy for a few $.
