Format:Paperback
Thought I'd leave a short message on Beyond Disney.
I bought the book in readiness for a week long trip, after purchasing a Flex Ticket Plus, and with plans to visit the major theme parks (Non Mouse related).
Simply the book made the holiday easier and far better. The reviews of the attractions were generally spot on, although the Mummy ride at Universal Studios must surely be the best ride imaginable. Only slight problem is the changes that have taken place at the parks since the book was published, e.g. The Simpsons replacing Back To The Future, but that is a minor quibble and it's not as though I wouldn't have ridden The Simpsons.
The idea of giving an outline for the best way to tour each park during the day is worth the money alone, saving hours of unnecessary queuing time. The descriptions of each attraction are detailed and considered.
Take it with you and read before the start of each day. You will be thankful.

Great in depth coverage of the non-Disney parks in & around Orlanda, plus Busch Gardens near Tampa. Detailed descriptions of all rides & attractions with recommendations for how to make the most of your visit.
Could do with a section on the main shopping opportunities in the area, both normal and discount malls.

This book is a must if you are visiting Orlando. I accompanies the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World perfectly. If you have both books then you will be fully prepared for everything Orlando has to offer. A brilliant book.

Rubbish, so out of date it's useless
Only buy this book if you are happy for lots of out of date information. It has been a complete waste of money for me.

So you've booked the holidays and now start the planning. This book is a nice little addition to the fantastic Unofficial Guide to Diney by the same authors. Read more
