Of all the Orlando trip books I've bought for my 3 past visits to Orlando, this is the best. It not only covers all the Disney stuff but also Universal Studios, SeaWorld and everything non-Disney. Plus it comes with an excellent Orlando map for those of us who rent cars. If you are planning to go outside the Disney parks and property, get this book!

I was not fully satisfied with this guide, first of all the rides are rated with only 3 stars, So new rides have 3 stars, old rides have 2 stars and young kid rides have one star. This is regardless of actual quality. This guide gave Pirates of the Caribbean and It's a Small World 2 stars and some other really stupid new rides Such as Conservation Station at The Animal Kingdom 3 stars. We went to a recommended Cuban restaurant that had great Paella according to Fodors, they had us wait 2 hours for the most horrendous and overpriced paella ever. All the tips for each ride and park can be summed up as : Get there really early or really late. The book is not bad, the scope is awesome and some reviews will be updated I hope when these people actually ride the new rides. Plus this is the only book that encompasses all the parks and everything you ever wanted to know about Orlando. So you still should buy it or you will be clueless.
