Hey! Can anyone tell me where I can find a good map of WDW? I'd like one of each park and of the entire site, but I can't seem to find a good one. Thanks for your help!!
August can't come soon enough!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd like to know that too!!! I did find maps on the disney.com travel page, they were good maps, but if you wanted to print them out, the lettering was sooo small that it was impossible to read. I even called disney, and asked for maps,their answer was they couldn't send maps of the parks out, because it was dated material. I tryed explaining that it didn't matter how old the maps were, we just wanted them for reference, (we're traveling with a large group & lots of kids and basically I 'over plan'). It didn't matter, they wouldn't send a map out. So,I also am looking for a printable and readable map, just to plan a little, we've never been to WDW :)
Thanks So Much!

We got a map from Borders made by Mapeasy. It covered everything including to two main routes in Orlando and all the parks including Seaworld and Universal

Sharkie:
The best map I have ever seen of Walt Disney World is the transportation map they used to give out at the parks in 1998. It is true to scale and makes excellent use of font, colour and linetypes. I have seen a lot of awful maps in guidebooks and magazines that tried to be schematic, 3-D or cartoon-like and in the process they lost the cartographic accuracy. I hope Disney have kept updating this same format. If you print this on a normal letter-size page, yes, the text will be too small but at least you can zoom in and out and pan around on the screen. You will need the Adobe .pdf viewer for this map.
Here's a link:

Of course, if you want to see the REAL Disney World, you can view the following aerial image of the Magic Kingdom and zoom out from there. The image is centred 94 metres southwest of the Walt / Mickey statue in front of the castle, near the bridge to Adventureland. The image resolution is one metre and was supplied by the United States Geological Survey. There are lots of good USGS and Soviet images on that site, both aerial and satellite. Unfortunately the images were created in 1995 so donât expect to see Animal Kingdom, Downtown Disney, Test Track etc.
Beware â you can also see some very un-magical parking lots, operations facilities and service roads. See if you can find the monorail garage north of the Magic Kingdom.
Hereâs the link:

Happy snooping!

Careful with mapeasy....it might be a good map if you go off site, but I felt it was very outdated for the parks....alot was missing.....the cost was $5.95 plus $2.00 shipping & handling....
