From the Author

It's a highly exciting time for us at the Brit's Guide - and that should mean even better value for our many thousands of readers, both regulars and newcomers to Britain's best-selling travel guide. Not only do we have the all-new, 10th edition of our Orlando book - crammed full of all the necessary up-dates, additional features and new attractions - but we also have a fully interactive website to provide an extra dimension to all that's in store in this amazing part of the world.

So, while you can read up on all the new rides, shows and other features - including a Top 10 of Best Free Attractions, a full Timeline of how Orlando has grown over the last 30 years and a dramatically up-graded Ticket Chart - you can then hop online with us and learn even more in the way of facts, features and up-dates.

With a permanent, year-round base in Orlando, the Brit's Guide team is second to none when it comes to providing all the essential insights and insider info for this vast, complicated but totally thrilling destination. If you've never been to Orlando, you've missed out on the most exciting place on earth; if you have been before, well, there's a whole lot more to explore this time around!

I have been researching and writing on Florida now for 10 years and it still has plenty to excite and intrigue me. Come and find out why in the pages of the Brit's Guide........

5.0 out of 5 stars Just Gets Better, 29 Nov 2008
By 
Wendy Jones "wjones7423" (Southampton, England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
When the blurb says that this is an easy to use guide it, rather unusually, has it spot on.This book guides you through your trip to Orlando, the theme parks, other entertainmnet, night life and most importantly shopping (well maybe not). The focus on this being for the British Reader is excellent, with everything being described for those travelling from Britain. The reviews are fair, although, as ever, it is written from the point of view of those who love thrill rides and everything else is described as being a bit tame. All the theme parks are covered in detail, but I particularly like the way other areas of Orlando are given equal coverage. The guide to eating out is comprehensive and there is a clear guide to the malls and discount outlets. I rate this book highly and would recommend that all Brits planning a trip buy it. It is well worth it, particularly from Amazon as this is the cheapest place I have seen it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Orlando = Brit Guide = Essential, 3 April 2005
By 
wicket2005 (England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: A Brit's Guide to Orlando 2005 (Paperback)
Since my second visit to Orlando I have always bought these guides. How I wish I had discovered them for my first trip.

The guide is filled full of valuable tips and information which I have followed each time I go over there, and is suitable for the first timers as well as those fortunate to be able to go again.

It is written in such a way that makes it very easy to read and take in the facts, with a slap of humour thrown in every now and again. We all laughed at the author's description of two daring slides in one of the water parks that the author didn't dare go on.

I consider the book to be an essential bit of kit for my holidays in Orlando. Preordered this book way back in August 2004, when we booked this year's holiday and had to wait right till the end of the year for it to be published - agony! Well worth the wait though.

It covers all these areas: info on Orlando such as climate, visas, etc; how to plan your holiday, what to wear, health matters, etc; driving and car hire; accommodation; Disney theme parks; Universal theme parks; Sea World; Discovery Cove; Busch Gardens; other attractions in the area, lots of other places to go to not just theme parks; venturing further afield; nightlife; dining out; shopping; going home.

AND ALSO

an example holiday planner with the theme park's busy day guide. Now this guide alone I would pay £10 for it is invaluable. It lists the quietest days to go which makes a big difference when visiting these parks.

It is so important to plan your holiday to Orlando carefully, use this book to work out your itinery, then use the tips on how to get around each park. I cannot stress the need enough to be fully prepared for your holiday here by using this book. However, if you find it difficult to make up an itinery yourself - the author will do one for you too. There is a link in the book telling you how to order one from him and if you buy the book you only pay £10 instead of £25 which is an added benefit.

This isn't some stuffy guidebook, it is like listening to a friend tell you about his experiences of Orlando which is why it makes this the best book you can buy. Believe me I have looked at other guidebooks and nothing compares to this one.

Buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Going to Orlando, don't leave home without this., 17 Dec 2007
By 
H. Barbour (Northern Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This year will be our fourth trip to Orlando, and this is the fourth edition I've bought in this series. I couldn't be without this book, especially when travelling with four children. It tells you everything you need to know about Orlando and what to do whilst there. As soon as I get the new edition I get out my highlighting pen and mark the tips I find especially relevant to our family, and what we found most helpful was the table showing the busiest and quietest days to visit all the parks, which is always right. I don't bring a novel to read by the pool, I bring this book, and have many friends who do the same.
