Birnbaum's
Walt Disney World 2004 by Birnbaum
Cinderella's Castle, Epcot Center, Mickey Mouse, Splash Mountain, Space
Mountain, and lines, lines, lines. A vacation at Walt Disney World shouldn't
be spent waiting to enjoy the attractions you traveled so far and spent
so much to visit. With that thought in mind, Birnbaum's editors have traveled,
toured, and tested every attraction and worked with the folks behind the
scenes to compile Walt Disney World 2004 to help you get the biggest possible
bang out of your vacation buck. This colorful guide, which is liberally
illustrated with photographs and full-color renderings of Disney notables,
begins with the logical "Getting Ready to Go" advice (hotels, transportation,
when to go), moves swiftly into lengthy descriptions of each of the major
theme parks--Magic Kingdom, Epcot Center, Disney-MGM Studios, and Animal
Kingdom--and then gives the scoop on other sights and activities in the
Orlando area.

Mickeys: A Field Guide to Walt Disney World's Best Kept Secrets by Steven M. Barrett

Hunting for Hidden Mickeys has escalated into a bona fide vacation mission
for many WDW fans. This first guidebook on the subject adds to the fun
by turning the search into organized scavenger hunts, complete with clues,
hints, points to be scored, and places to tally them. There's a hunt
for each of the major theme parks, plus one for the public areas of the
resort hotels and one for all the rest of WDW.
An Index to Mickey's Hiding Places lets visitors who prefer a less competitive
approach look for the Main Mouse wherever they find themselves in Mickey's
magical realm. And those who need more help spotting him will find full
descriptions of each Hidden Mickey in a separate section of the book.

The
Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World 2004 by Bob Sehlinger
While Walt Disney World stands for fun, fun, fun, let's face it--it
comes at a hefty cost: long waits, huge crowds, and high prices. "When
it comes to Walt Disney World," writes Sehlinger, "you either need a plan
or a frontal lobotomy." As the huge complex of theme parks has grown to
roughly the size of Boston, so has this guide, from less than 200 pages
to over 700. While that may seem formidable, every one is chock-full of
invaluable information for making the most of your time and money, with
the least amount of hassle. Sehlinger is an excellent guide--witty and
readable, and he and his research crew have done a commendable job figuring
out the most efficient and economical ways to spend your time at Walt Disney
World. --Lesley Reed - Amazon.com Paperback from John Wiley & Sons
