Favorite Guide Books?

[ella6599]

I feel like I've seen this posted before...but couldn't find it...

Do you have any favorite guide books that list attractions, dining, etc.? I've used Unofficial Guide to Disney in the past, and liked it, but wondered if there are any great guides out there that I'm missing.

We used the Unofficial guide for our last trip and our upcoming trip and loved it. I've heard quite a few people mention the Passporter but I've never used it myself. Good luck!!

My Top 3 Guides:

1. Unofficial Guide (www.touringplans.com)
2. Passporter (www.passporter.com)
3. Tour Guide Mike (www.tourguidemike.com)

I have to have these to help with the planning before each trip

I also take a Mini-Mickey along (mini version of Unofficial Guide)

Hope this helps

I bought a Passporter for the first time this year--I love that it is very efficient for people who like to organize their "stuff" in one compact system. I also buy the unofficial guide every few years or so as well as the Birnbaum's guide--just for the pictorial element, it's a cute keepsake.

I used a guide called Birnbaum's Walt Disney World Guide. But Pal Mickey Works

I love "Walt Disney World with Kids" by Kim Wright Wiley

It's not as heavy/detailed as Unofficial Guide. It's a quick easy read with lots of great info.

I think Unofficial Guide is the best.

I vote for Unofficial guide. I own The Cheapskate's Guide to Walt Disney World, Birmbaum's Official Disney Guide, and the Unofficial and I think the unofficial just tells way more than either of the other guides. I like that it has actual statistics and real reviews by people who have stayed, eaten, etc. at the places being described. It also has tips on when to go to the parks for what rides.
