Universal Guide Book

[cathie1327]

I had posted this on the Universal board but was wondering if I could get any additional help here...

Do any of you have suggestions for Universal Studios, Sea World, Busch Gardens, etc?

I bought Kelly Monaghan's book for Universal but was wondering if there are any others that come highly recommended?

TIA!

Kelly Monaghan's book is, by far, the best. Most comprehensive, most objective, most everything. There is an Unofficial Guide called Beyond Disney that is good, but not asgood as Monaghan's book. Beyond Disney also covers the other parks you mentioned (and Gatorland!). Neither book has great maps, but good maps are hard to find. There is an iPhone/iTouch app that is pretty good. It's by themeparknerd and they mentioned it on the podcast not too long ago. It doesn't have wait times, but it's a good field guide for in the parks (if you've read the books and just need a couple of sentences to jog your memory about each attraction). I think it's just called Universal Orlando.

HTH,
