Solid Orlando Guide
4 Jun 2007
As you might expect from the title, the bulk of the material in this book is focused on the various theme parks in the Orlando area. In addition, you will find all the standard Fodor's material covering restaurants, hotels, and general information about visiting the area.
The information provided is useful and accurate. Fodor's updates it once a year and subject to constant little changes in the real world, they do a good job of keeping it current. The strategies offered for avoiding long lines at the theme parks are helpful. The book also gives descriptions and ratings of every ride and attraction at each park. The descriptions are almost too detailed (if you want any surprises) and their ratings are sometimes a bit generous. Still, the material is helpful in deciding which rides to make sure you see and what can be skipped if time is short.
All in all, this is an above average guide. It does suffer in comparison to The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World 2008 (Unofficial Guides), which is the ultimate help in planning a trip to Orlando. The Unofficial Guide is hundreds of pages longer and every bit of it is crammed with useful information. Some travelers are actually put off by the sheer volume of information in the Unofficial Guide and this might be a choice that would be less intimidating and more easily digested if you prefer to invest a bit less time in the planning stage of your trip.

Essential Guide - You Don't Need The Others!
6 Oct 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase
It took me awhile to decide which one of the countless guides to get for my 1st trip to WDW. In my opinion, the Unofficial Guide was way too big to lug around, and the Official Guide was "pretty" but didn't say much more than what was already apparent (or could easily be found online). Fodor's Guide was great for its size (not too big, but not too little that you felt like the info. was sparse). This guide is great for beginners because it tells you all you need to know without overwhelming. The Unofficial Guide might be better for someone who was making a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. trip to WDW and would appreciate the detailed info. The book layout was easy to follow, the readability was high, and it even includes info. on Universal Studios as well!
