Do not attempt to go to the sunshine state without this book - By: , 13 Jan 2002 
Brilliant, it was our first visit to the usa never mind to the mind blowing land of Mickey Mouse, Shamu the Killer Whale & Universal. I knew we needed some reading material to help us plan our holiday of a lifetime & we luckily chose this book. It was our lifeline for the whole 2 weeks it helped us drive on the roads, fill up with petrol, find the best shops & of course informed us of alll the amazing rides & characters to see at the theme parks. It is also very informative for people traveling with little ones as it points out the suitability of the rides. An absolute must to pack in your hand luggage worth its wait in gold.
Unreserved recommendation - By: , 19 Mar 2001 I would recommend this book to anyone going to Orlando, without any hesitation.
We used it last year for our first two week trip & were the envy of our friends upon return because this book guided us to many gems that they had missed.
Many of our friends have now bought the book & we will use it again this year.
Fantastic!!
A superb, practical reference book. - By: , 20 Nov 2000 Our family purchased this book some months before we travelled to give us a 'feel' for where we were going. None of us had been before & only knew what we had been told by friends.
The practical advice provided throughout the book is obviously an amalgamation of not just the author's experiences but many other travellers. Things as basic as planning your itinery before you go so that you have an idea what you want to see without wasting time; when the busy times for each theme park are; what rides to target on arrival etc.
The food guides were excellent, providing rough cost guides & what to expect as far as content & service.
The book is written in a format that isn't at alll condescending & can also be read from cover to cover so that the traveller knows exactly what to expect.
Most of the 'Brit Tips' were useful & written in a friendly, humourous way.
We would recommend this book to any first-time traveller to Orlando & even to previous visitors so that they are aware of what else is out there!
This quickly became our bible. - By: kimkipling@aol.com, 27 Sep 2000 We first visited Florida in 1998 & bought that years edition before we left home & studied it thoughly for advice on when, what & how to see Florida & it never let us down. Our second visit was in April 2000 & as soon as able bought the 2000 edition & like the first visit this book NEVER let us down. On both visits it became the family bible & we never stepped outside without it tucked under an arm.
The only book you will need - By: , 10 Sep 2000 I can, wholeheartedly, recommend this book to alll, especiallly to families. I followed the advice & successfully planned my theme park itinerary around the "quiet" days. It helped to focus our vists otherwise we would have wandered around the theme parks, unsure of the best ride. Excellent.
