It's not bad for a 1st time vister. But there are so many holes in the information. I used the web links that were mention in the first chapter like http://www.wdwinfo.com/ which has more info then the book.

They just say "Disney will have a 15 month Millenium Celiberation" no more info about it! That's what I wanted to know. I'm on Amazon today to order a better Disney World book. A good update and a better editor would make this an awsome buy. Big book for under $13, but no pictures like the offical guide and not a lot of inside information. Plus they didn't update for the millenium celibration. Or Islands of adventure in Universal. Just said there there was going to be one.


Guidebook full of incorrect and out of date information   May 31, 1999

Having had quite a lot of previous Walt Disney World experience, I was really disappointed with this book. I will say that the book looks nice and is laid out all right, but the content is awful. The book mentions attractions and shows that were long gone (I mean years) by it's release date in late 1998. One of Disney's major resort hotels isn't even named properly in the book. There is a big difference between Coronado Springs (correct) and Colorado Springs (wrong). Anyone who has even briefly visited the hotel can pick up on the southwest/Mayan/Aztec theme and should realize that the name Colorado Springs wouldn't make sense. I think if an author is claiming to be enough of an expert on something to write a guidebook, the basic facts should be right, which they are not. Virtually any other guidebook will give you better and more relevant information!


Good information for the average Disney traveller   May 18, 1999

I like the presentation of information in this book. I have been to Disney many times and purchased many guide books, and this is a good one. I especially liked the rating system, for children and adults. Very helpful. It was easy to read and understand, with pictures and maps. Kind of big for traveling, but the information is worth bringing the book along on vacation.
