Hi all,
Is this guide (The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World) any good?
Jeff
I've only ever used Birnbaum's so I'm not sure. Books are nice for some major categories of information, but things change so fast (particularly in this economy) that it's hard to capture it all in any book.
What sort of information were you looking to have in a book format?

I guess I just like to have something in my hand and refresh my knowledge of Disney parks and hopefully get more tips...

Another vote for the PassPorter (http://www.passporter.com/)!
I like it the best of any I've found although the Unofficial is rumored to be good also.

The above are both very good, detailed books.
I bought this one last year:
The Hidden Magic of Walt Disney Wor: Amazon.co.uk: Susan Veness: Books (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hidden-Magic-Walt-Disney-Wor/dp/1605500631)
If you have been before and are looking for interesting tips, etc., this book is excellent. :thumbsup:

I usually buy the unofficial guide every few years and the wife will buy the passporter before each trip.The passporter has a section where you answer questions about your day in WDW (Best memory,worst,funniest,magic moment etc.)so that when you pick up the book months later you can have some laughs and smiles remembering the trip. If you have to choose one my pick would be the passporter but I say buy them both.

I'd get an iPhone then you can have this site wherever you go ;)
Birnbaums for me too :D although the unofficial guide was pretty good for stuff outside of Disney
