5 out of 5 stars Invaluable Disney World Guide   May 20, 2007
My first experience with the Unofficial Guide was back in 1993, when I was 16 and my parents took our family of five to Disney World around the holidays. My mom had bought the Unofficial Guide then to plan virtually all of our events and to this day (14 years later), I still remember how easy it was to hit all the favorite rides with relatively short lines.

It was for that reason that I ordered the 2006 edition of the Guide when it came time to take my family of three to Disney World while I was home on leave from Iraq in April of 2006. I was pleased to learn that it not only covered Disney World, but the Universal (and other) parks as well.

The trick to getting the most out of the book is convincing everyone in your party to follow it! We spent the first day at Universal's Islands of Adventure and had no problems, whatsoever, hitting all the great rides (that our 4-year-old was tall enough for) with short lines. That is, until my wife decided to get spontaneous and took our son in line for the Pteranodon Flyers ride, which wasn't on the tear-out plan at all. This ride gave new meaning to "Tourist Trap" - they spent about 1 1/2 hours waiting in a very slow line for an anticlimatic 60-second ride. It was a "there's 90 minutes of my life I'll never get back" event. When we got back to the hotel that night, I looked up the Pteranodon Flyers ride in the book and found the description matched exactly what we experienced with warnings not to waste any time on it.

My wife was much more inclined to follow the Guide's advice for the rest of the trip, and as a result, it was an awesome vacation. Thank you Mr. Sehlinger!



4 out of 5 stars this guide used to be easy   May 14, 2007
This guide used to be easy to read, and use. Now it seems like a confused overwritten GUIDE.


5 out of 5 stars If you are only buying one guide... this is it!   March 9, 2007
I was very pleased with this guide. Due to an extremely low volume of visitors during our vacation, it was not necessary for us to use the touring plans. I was certainly prepared though! I read several guides before our trip and thought this was by far the most informative. If you are easily overwhelmed, this is NOT the book for you. The authors packed loads of info into one book. I was the star pupil on the shuttle bus when the driver gave us a quiz!


5 out of 5 stars THIS IS THE ONE!!!   January 17, 2007

THIS IS THE ONE!!! DO NOT PLAN A DISNEY TRIP WITHOUT IT! The time and $ this book will save you will make its cost be totally irrelevant.
We started using our first version of this "Doing Disney Bible" about 9 years ago, when we first went to Disney. We have gone back to Disney five times since then, and have always purchase a revised edition of this same book! (Need I say more.) It will make your stay as pleasant as possible, given any time of year or condition that you may encounter. We purchase the revised edition each time, because, amazingly, so many things change at the parks, and therefore, so do their recommendations.
Due to their layout, It is so easy to pick and choose the information that is important to you. I WOULD NEVER WANT TO GO TO DISNEY WITHOUT THIS BOOK!



5 out of 5 stars This book is a lifesaver!   January 10, 2007
We used this book religiously, following all its tips about how to see rides in the different parks. It also helped us decide which area to get a motel in, and what restaurants to eat at. When you only have a limited time to spend in each park, and especially when it's during the busy season, this is the book to use. It made our trip to Disney World fun, even when it was over 90 degrees out!
