 A Must Have November 17, 2008
Simply the most comprehensive Disney guide on the market!!
We're just back from our 1st trip to WDW with our 2 and 3 year old girls. The book and the personalized tour plans were a Godsend to us as "newbies"...The personalized plans worked to perfection and lessened our family's anxiety.
Best Advice: Take the kids back to hotel or wherever you are staying for lunch and a break/nap. They came back refreshed for the evening.
Best Book EVER!!! November 17, 2008
This is a MUST for ANYONE who is planning a trip to Disneyworld. We went for the 1st time in 2000 and I read this book cover to cover before going. It MADE our trip. We did not spend a lot of time trying to figure things out. It shortens your line wait time by guiding you through that process. It is not written by Disney, so it gives you all things Disney - good and bad. I have been 2 more times since then and I buy the book each time for the maps and as a reference to see what's new.
WONDERFUL TOOL. I saw several people who were carrying it around Disneyworld. I left the book in my cabin at Fort Wilderness and tore out the map pages and took them into the parks with me.......
 A great read October 6, 2008
I am only a little way into this book. I had no idea there was so much to know. But this book is very helpful.
Couldn't have done it without this book! September 16, 2008
This book has it all - great information on just about everything along with some hilarious stories that brought tears to my eyes! We went to Disney when our daughter was nine months old and only managed to make it on ONE ride - 'It's a Small World' and then it was nap time! We paid a LOT of money for that one ride, but it makes for a great story. This time, I swore I'd get prepared. To celebrate our daughter's second birthday, we spent four days in a Disney resort. With a little planning, we were able to hit three parks in two days AND we went on plenty of rides. The info from this book helps you understand the right rides and shows for your age child - no wasted time standing in line only to escort the children out because they're screaming of fright! This book was dead-on with its recommendations. To top it off, my husband is NOT a planner, but he is now after this trip. Our daughter had a great time with no waiting in long lines and nobody got crabby! (hard to believe since it was 95 degrees out!) We saw tons of crying kids and screaming parents and all I could think of was that they probably didn't have a "plan"! This is a GREAT book - for the price, it's highly worth every cent!
 too much detail September 5, 2008
This book has alot of content, but not the things that I needed. There are cartoons, and there are lots of personal annectodes submitted by readers. And it does not work well as a quick reference if you are trying to find the answers to some simple questions. You really have to want to read it to get anything out of it. At the last minute we were confused as to where our hotel shuttle would be leaving us, and how to proceed on our first morning, but the book was too big to stuff in our backpack on our way into the park. We ended up ripping apart the book to get the parts we thought we might use. Frankly I was much better versed, having read the Frommers guide which I had borrowed from the library earlier.
I did get a little advice out of the "touring plans" in the back of the Unnofical Guide. It worked as a rough guideline for us, so that we knew which section of the Magic Kingdom to hit first in the morning. But we did not need the book to plan the whole day. We enjoyed doing things at our own pace and -- oh yeah -- we had a great vacation.
