Book Description

Irreverent Guides October 2, 1998
"Like being taken around by a savvy local." —The New York Times "Little fluff and lots of fun." —Boston Globe "Hipper and savvier than other guides." —Diversion magazine Are you tired of cliché-ridden guidebooks packed with promotional fluff? Then move over to the Irreverent Guides—the travel series that no tourist board would dare to recommend. Look inside for the lowdown on:
  • The best places to stay for families, honeymooners, penny-pinchers, and happy campers
  • Where to dine with Mickey and Pluto—and where to eat if you'd rather be left alone
  • How to do Disney without losing your mind—or the kids
  • What's really worth it at Epcot, Universal, Sea World, and MGM—and what you should't waste your time on
  • After-dark fun for weary parents, dancing fools, and bar-stool quarterbacks
  • And much more!

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

This lively guide lives up to its title by page 5, when it poses the question, "What do Viagra and Walt Disney World have in common?" (Answer: you have to wait an hour for a two-minute ride. B-dum-bum.) Savvy authors Diane Bair and Pamela Wright amuse and inform as they deliver the lowdown on where to see Mickey M. in "person," dump your sullen teens for a few hours, or book a much-needed "serenity massage" after a long day of toddler-wrangling. Handily divided into sections covering accommodations, dining, diversions, and so forth, this wry tome leaves no stone unturned or bloated cartoon character unpunctured. Perhaps most valuable is the flinty, no-nonsense analysis of the various themed Disney hotels--which ones appeal to children, which to adults, and which are best avoided altogether. And if you have any energy left after the Magic Kingdom spits you out, you'll also find info on the Orlando area's other attractions--can you really afford to miss Gatorland? --Rebecca Gleason

This review is from: Frommer's Irreverent Guide to Walt Disney World, (Irreverent Guides) (Paperback)
It's definitely irreverent, but it's not very informative. The authors have a great sense of humor and I found myself sharing many of their opinions. Unlike some syrupy tour guides, it does describe the bad along with the good. But the book is short on hard information that could allow readers to form their own opinions about what to see and what to avoid. I found myself sometimes wishing for more description and less opinion. "The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World" by Bob Sehlinger is comprehensive, balanced, packed with information, and still manages to be irreverent and funny.
