Tour Guide Mike or another site?

So in the past I've used TGM and had relatively good luck with avoiding lines. I'm trying to decide if I should go with him again or is there a better site out there? Any help is most appreciated; thanks!

When was the last time you used TGM? I don't think he's been around for a while due to health problems (I think there are some old threads on the DIS somewhere about this too). Anyways, I don't think you'll find anything from him so I would go with the free site easywdw or pay a little for Kennythepirate or Touringplans. Use all three, understand why they have certain recommendations, and then build your own custom touring plan for your party. We've done that in 2012 and 2015 during President's Day week and accomplished more than we thought we would each time and avoided long lines.

I like the easywdw site. It does not have a lot of touring plans, maybe four or so for the MK. One thing I do like is that Josh walks his touring plans periodically and tracks his timing against what his site shows. He sometimes changes his plans based on recent wait times. I also enjoy his dry humor.

Josh, who has the easywdw site, and Dave Shute who has **************.net teamed up to write a book, "The Easy Guide to Your First Walt Disney World Visit". Much of the information is on their respective sites, but the book is laid to guide first timers.

Ah...good ole' TGM. I loved his site. He was just stopping his tour guides right before our last trip (2012). EasyWDW and Kenny The Pirate are both awesome though.
