Book Reviews of The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World 2008 (Unofficial Guides)
Book Review: Excellent Resource
Summary: 4 Stars
We have been to Disney every year for the past 6 years and have bought the newest edition of this book before each of our trips, and our whole family loves it. There is plenty of information we don't even need, since it covers such a wide array of subjects, but the information we do use is extremely helpful. Some reviews have said this is a negative book, is anti-Disney, or makes the parks sound so crowded that it makes you not want to go at all. I think the book is merely being realistic in trying to offer strategies and the best times to visit to avoid crowds. We were there Easter week a few years ago and the parks were mobbed, but the tips in this book made things less frustrating. We are currently planning our 2009 trip and even though at this point we probably don't even need another new edition of this book, we will be buying it when it comes out next month.
A few examples of how this guide has been helpful in years past:
-On our first visit, I purchased "bounce-back" tickets which were not displayed at the ticket booth....until I asked about them, at which point the ticket booth employee turned over the placemat which had all of the multi-day ticket info on it. On the back was information about the "bounce-back" tickets. Since I knew what to ask for, I saved about $100.
-A couple of years ago, we were getting ready to leave Epcot on our last day when I noticed a sign for Turtle Talk with Crush. I remembered reading in the Guide that this was very funny and was possibly a glimpse into the future of Disney attractions. We stayed to watch, and it turned out to be one of our favorite parts of the whole trip, including our 16 and 14 year olds.
-We had debated going to see the Cirque du Soleil show, but the price had always scared us away. The Guide said that they had never received a single negative review about the show, and talked about how incredible it was. We decided to go on our most recent visit, and we all absolutely loved it.
I highly recommend this book, especially to anyone going to Didney World for the first time.
