Summary: "Great Guide!"

After much hesitation (due to some negative reviews), I purchased this book for our upcoming trip to Orlando. Upon receiving it I was pleasantly surprised and it has come in very handy for planning our trip. We will have a GPS with us but that doesn't help with knowing which sites would appeal to us which is what this book is perfect for.
Also, I like the idea of being able to have a map to carry around with us in case we want to look at where to go next while we're out and about. I find it very nice that there is an identical map built into the book so even if you should happen to lose the pull out map you've still got a back up ... small detail but nice. For the price, I don't think you can beat the value of this Orlando Guide!

Summary: "A great book for the first time visitor"

We went to Orlando for a limited time, were without kids and didn't want to spend all our time or money at theme parks. This book told us where to spend our precious time at the parks and not too much money doing other things. We spent a day at Sea World and a day at Epcot; the book steered us towards the best that both parks had to offer so we didn't feel like we were bumbling around with no clear direction.

It also suggested a one hour boat tour in Winter Park, very relaxing (and cheap); no one we talked to ever heard about it, not other visitors or even residents of the area. We also took a suggested manatee cruise on the St. John's River, also very relaxing and inexpensive. We never actually saw a manatee but did see plenty of birds, alligators and turtles.

The book also gave us inexpensive places to eat and the best options for dining at the parks. Also other information on places to stay and general tourist info every traveler should have regarding the area like medical, police, etc.

I wish there was a book like this for every place I travel to, it's so easy to read and is loaded with maps. It's put together in the style of a "top ten" list and then breaks them down further, for example: the top ten parks or attractions, then the top ten things to see or do at each of those places.

Give it a try, you won't be sorry.

Summary: "Top 10 Orlando"

I wanted this book to use for a vacation in one month. I found out that the book has older information and a great deal of the info. is not up to date. Newer rides and shows from Disney are not even listed. The concept of the book is a good one but it seems that they do not take the time to update and review.....
