Really helped me

An awesome combination of a book that's fun to look at (thanks to lots of color pix, some quite striking) and helpful to read, this Complete Guide to Disney World is the type that gets dog-eared and covered in post-it notes. At least mine did.

I found out I was headed to Disney World at the last minute, so I bought this on Amazon, got overnight shipping and hoped it would take the place of a few months of planning. It did its job perfectly.

A smart sense of organization makes it easy to find anything you need. Everything is grouped together into color-coded chapters, with all the information for each topic, such as a particular resort, all in one place.

Also very helpful is the huge section on each theme park and water park, with long descriptions of every attraction that include such things as wait times, a Fear Factor for young kids, handicapped info and, for parades and fireworks, exactly where to stand to get the best views.

Some things weren't that useful for me. For instance, I don't play golf or participate in things like parasailing and surfing, so those pages, though fun to look at with all the photos, didn't really help me any. Still, a great buy. I recommend it!

Like National Geographic, but all about Disney

If you haven't seen this book think of it as like a National Geographic magazine, with colorful images everywhere, but instead book-size and all about Disney World. It is outstanding! Disney World is many things, but it's not cheap. Therefore, you need this book! It has you everything you need to choose EXACTLY the right things for your particular family, including very detailed reviews of rides and shows and every other way to spend your time. I especially liked the little "Magical Day" touring plans. Unlike some other guides, the ones in here don't rush you. We have a 6 year old and a 4-year old, and thanks to this book's recommended Magic Kingdom schedule and many little tips and age-appropriate suggestions we had the time of our lives! All the photos really helped, too.

Useful, well organized and fun to read

Anyone who is headed to Disney world should buy this book, even if you have been there before. It has really helped me plan our trip. I have been using it for the past two weeks to get ready and now I feel like a real expert. Lots of great information and photos, very well organized and fun to read too!

My new favorite Disney guidebook

I have a whole shelf in my bookcase just for books about Disney World, and The Complete Guide is now my new favorite.

What you notice first is the color. The cover is a brilliant red, with a great pic of the trolley show performers on Main Street USA. Inside are bright glossy pictures on just about every page. These are not the typical staged shots you normally see from Disney World. There is a backstage photo of a Lion King dancer putting on makeup, a shot of the author from the inside of a Richard Petty race car, Tweedledum taking a cell-phone call from a guest and a close-up of the Cinderella mosaic at the castle. There is even a historical photo of Warren Beatty signing his cement block in front of the Great Movie Ride. I could go on and on just about the photos in this book.

My reason for really loving this guide, though, are not about the pix. I love the explanations on each attraction's back story. I have gone on these rides not knowing the story, but am looking forward to riding again now that I can put the ride in perspective. For example, I never knew the full story behind DinoLand, the Harambe Village or Expedition Everest in Animal Kingdom. Now I do!

If you are interested in a beautiful Disney World guidebook that is unprecedented in its depth and details, check this one out. You won't be disappointed!

Feels like I'm THERE!

I was so impressed with this colorful guide to my FAVORITE PLACE -- Disney World! My family makes the trek to Orlando twice a year, and I thought I knew a lot about it. After reading this Complete Guide I know about a thousand times more than I did before! I can't wait to go back and look for some little treasures I learned about from this book, like the Mary Blair doll in Small World, or the funny things the birds say after everyone has left the Tiki Room.
There are photos on nearly every page, and they make me feel like I am right there strolling down Main Street USA or about to go down Summit Plummet at Blizzard Beach. These pix alone are reason enough to get this guidebook. They will make you want to book your next vacation right away.
Do yourself a favor and get this book!!!
